Welcome again and is this the car you just purchased? http://forums.corvetteforum.com/zerothread?id=379440

I saw that car and it sounded like a great deal! Congrats on your purchase and it will be cool to see another 68/69 black vert running around the island. Now I can blame the hot rodding on somebody else if I get called on it!!! Do you know when the car will be here?

Maurice,
Yes this is the car, I hope the shipping strike won't go through. other wise I will have to fly to the West Coast, and sleep at the ship yard. I understand Cappy did that. I will do whatever Cappy does, he's the man.

Okay Maurice,
We got to get this guy down to the Drag strip and get that 1968 triple black Vette broken in properly....Maybe Kit will get hooked like we are and be there more than us......Welcome abaord Kit....so you finally came to your senses and purchased the only Vette with style and sex appeal.....Bring her down to the track and watch all the girls leave there boy friends in the bleachers to get a picture sitting inside your car......It's a very cool thing.....Makes my wanger wanta banger...... :D My son was at the Drag Strip with me after I made a pass down the strip. He saw this for the first time, now he's out shopping for a C-3 Vette too.....The chicks will actually hand you their camera and ask you to shoot them in your car.....I always turn into Mr Proffessional Photographer and start yelling "Yeah baby that's the ticket....."Now own it baby....own it".....You're going to see what I'm talking about when you drive up in that I wanta Spank you Triple Black Vette......Yeah Baby...Own It...Own It.....

From one new member to another, welcome! Hawaii must be great, one of my old friends just moved there. Wish I could. As for the Vietnam stuff, hope we never go thru it again. We were stationed in the PI and mom did air evacs coming into Clark while Dad poured over recon photos in 13th AF headquarters. He's since passed on and she's now a doc. I ran off to the Peace Corps. Love not war! :cheers:

Did you really? He seem to be a very shape and responsablle 25 year old. He just had a new baby and needed the sales of this car to buy a house. I absolutely agrees with him, My first Corvette was at 25 years old and it was a 62' triple black, but I had to sell to start a business and now that I 'm more secure I can have all the all wants I need. His FS post was on this forum http://forums.corvetteforum.com/zerothread?id379440. If you can't open this one Mauise has one on his welcome post on this page that will open. Let me know what you think.
