When I joined the forum, I owned a C6 and a C2, hence the user name C6stingray. (I have since replaced the C6 with a C7.) As you do, I also like trains as well as Vettes. I have a scale model live-steam ten-wheeler and live about 2 blocks from the D&SNGRR tracks, near enough that I can hear my favorite Mikado, No. 473, whistle for a grade crossing.

It seemed like a good idea 17 years ago, but not something I am willing to reveal now.

Sullyvette, Simply my nickname and my favorite hobby. Not a specific year, due to previously owning a '65 66 76 85 05 07 Z06 and currently a '65 vert. It only took me 41 years to get back to my '65 roots. Lovin it !!!

Mine is a reference to a very obscure Baltimore Orioles player who had his five major league at bats about the time 9-year-old me became a baseball fan.

I thought I'd posted in this, or a thread like it, but didn't see it, so here goes

I was/am a collector of a "Reverend" guitars & basses. I started a website, dedicated to the brand at REVFAN.COM

Interesting... the guitar below was ordered by Kid Rock for his race car driver buddy, Tony Stuart - NASCAR #20. I owned it for a short period of time....





I ended up selling my guitar collection, and buying a 67' but when I joined this forum, Revfan seemed to fit, so I stuck with it.

Because it's mine not His! My email is hersecond65 because it is! Had my first one in '71 and waited too long (2012) in my opinion to get my second one. Then I ordered a '15. Thought it would be cool to have em 50 years apart. It sure is!

Did mine as a tribute to my good friend that past away a few years back. The vette I now own once was his. I bought it from his wife when he past.

You can change your User name if you want to. I changed mine shortly after I joined the forum. As your cars and interest change your user name may not fit. That's why I went with MarkC.
