Default I'm baaaaaack!!!!!

After about 2-3 years of the dreaded corvetteus withoutus..I have returned to the collective.

A few years ago, in a moment of weakness, I sold the 76 Corvette that I had owned for almost 12 years. my first corvette. At the time I had a 98 Pace Car and it was seeing more road time while the 76 just sat.

A couple of weeks ago I received a phone call from a mutual friend telling me the the person I had sold the 76 to was thinking of selling. He offered me first chance. This weekend I was able to meet with him and strike up a deal that returned the 76 to my garage.

SO....here she is back home where she belongs and where she will stay.

MOODVETTE!!!!!!

Thanks, I was just talking with the painter the other day and complimenting him on how it has held up for almost 15 years. Still as shiny and nice as day 1.
