Default How many Corvettes?

How many Corvettes have you owned? What years? and order. There's mine

1979 white
1978 Pace Car
2002 black rose convertible
2003 40TH anniv. convertible
1981 red
2007 red convertible
1980 white

As you can see I have a soft spot for the C3s Corvettes.

13 corvettes from 1972 to 1983 the first was a 58-67-63
65-66-73-76-76-78-70-82-71-66. After 83 I got away from corvettes until 4 years ago I bought my 71 LT1 convt. I had another 71 LT1 in the mid 70s that I raced and put in shows and it was the most fun car of a the cars that I had owned. The 58 was my first and payed 1800 for the car and had a paint job done for another 200 those were the good days. Ithrough I had owned 19 but I put them on paper and this is all I can recal.

My orange L-82 4 speed 77 is my one and only. But I'm considering getting an early or mid C4 for a bang around car.
