Default I sold the vetter for a ...

Well, my 92 ragtop is now gone. I sure miss the performance however I had to stick with chevy. I sold the vette because I couldnt take the family with me (which can be good sometimes though). I needed something I could take the kids in that would be cool to drive so I bought a 1967 camaro convertible. Gotta stay with chevy right? Here is a picture of it. It is in great shape but I am going to put a 383 stroker in it. I really need some serious horsepower. I miss that from driving the vette. Have no fear though, I am sure I will own another vette someday.

How did I do?

Great looking car.

A guy in the next town has got a '67 or '68 with an LS1 in it, 6 speed and the vette IRS out back. Very cool set up! Same color I think, but with the white stripes.

Nice car here those cars are expensive. Is it a real SS?
A 383 wouldn't not be a good move considering the value of the car. Not to meniton the price of gasoline.

I had a 66 Chevelle with a 283 that got 23 mpg.

I'm not talking to you EVER AGAIN!

well, maybe just this once. WOW! That's a knockout Camaro!
Looks great, but you really shouldn't have sold the Vette. OK, we understand, or at least I do.

As to modding it, it already has a hood, wheels, and probably other stuff. I'm not sure I'd go the engine route, but it's yours to play with.

Good luck and stay in touch, especially when you get ready to get that NEXT VETTE!

Sweet ride, and I understand the single-passenger issue. Enjoy!
