Default Hello everyone

Hi All.

Thought I'd join a Corvette forum. I enjoy my boating forum and decided to try here. I have had 2 C3 and 1 C4 vettes in the past and truly enjoyed them. After 20 years of driving foreign, I decided to come back to good o'le American ingenuity. Looking for a '75 convertible L82 now.

I'm in sunny south Florida ............(Miami)

thanks for the warm welcomes, I look forward to participating in this forum........

shark, I'm looking for a 75 vert because I like the c3 convertible but want as much technology as possible....so, its the last year for the convertible.....over the years I've owned a '74 t-top L48 4spd, '68 vert 327/350 4spd and a '86 4spd coupe.......wish I hadn't sold the '68 to buy the new '86 when I graduated from law school
