Default Looking for old friends!

I saw on the For Sale page that someone is looking for an old corvette that he used to own. It started me thinking. I am always wondering what happened to my two previous corvettes. My first was a 1972 T top, Motor City silver, 350 SB, w/o airconditioning and no power windows. I traded it in at a used car site in Enterprise, AL in 1977. I traded it for a 1976 blue T top L-82. This vette was loaded with leather, A/C, Pwr windows, the works. This car I traded at the Chevy dealership in Fayetteville, NC in the early part of 1980.

If anyone out there knows about these two former loves of my life, let me know. I'll bet that I'm not the only one on the forum that wishes they knew what ever happened to their old vettes.

Can't help you on your two previous but I know the feeling. I traded a 96 coupe in and have wondered several times what became of it.
