18, white, redneck, Missouri
Well I guess I could add that I'm 1/2 redneck whatever and 1/2 Italian (go pasta!). Always promised myself I would be a vette driver ever since I sat in my dad's friend's 89. Fell in love and knew I had to have one.

28 year whiteboy named Jeremy, and I have an addiction to cars that are older than I am, and with twice the cylinders/pistons than most of the other guys my age.
This is were everyone in the CCA (classic Cars/Corvettes annonymous) says in unison - "HI, Jeremy" And then we all start talking about our cars and when it all started etc.
Born in Dallas, Texas, grew up in Columbia, Missouri (go tigers! & go Kewpies!!) now live in Illinois just outside Saint Louis, Missouri after going to Truman State University in Kirksville Missouri (go Bulldogs!)

Adopted at less than 1 yr and no records, but I am regularly accused of being German and Irish. I live in AZ these days, CO for about 20 before that and Cleveland for the first 20 or so.
