He speaks the truth. I got my '95 LT1 in Nov '07. since then I've added a '79 showcar and a 2002 Z-06 to the stable.

I hope to add a C2 to the family within 5 years. It's not looking too promising at this point.

thanks small block, if the paint was fresh and good i would consider the strips and deacals but the paint is older and has some bubbles and chips so maybe when i get around to painting it again i will consider. my girlfriend loves it so guess what.....

I had a '69 bug for a while, sold it last year and actually made money. It was a blast to drive, but I like the Vette better. You were talaking about a VW Bug right??
