Yes, Another Newbie

Hello All,
I am pleased to announce that I have found a cure for corvette fever. It is my new 69 roadster and I still can't wipe the stupid grin off my face.
I traveled from WV to MASS to get her and now I can die a happy man.
The weather was so nice this weekend I put her in the christmas parade in my hometown. It was something to see thousands of people admire her and comment on her as as I have done with corvettes over the years. Its what I have affectionately termed the "GAWK Factor".
I have been reading the forum for months and know that if I need help and advice, this is the place to turn to. I can't wait to get home at night just to check in on the forum. I learn something new every time.

Hope the pics work?

Hey Rick,

Congrats on your purchase! It's a sweet ride! And welcome to the forum.

Too funny you came to MA to get your car, as I did the opposite: I went to WV to pick up mine! :D
