I saw my first vette in Germany in 1980. All I know back then it had chrome bumbers front and back and it was RED. It was cool looking.

I picked 30-39.

Well, I bought it a couple months ago when I was 36, but as of a week ago, I am 37.

Take care,

Loren

37 here... got my first last summer. My mom's second husband had an '80 C3 and I never got over the power and the personality. Now a proud owner of a '74 L-82 coupe. It's a blast - if only the wife could appreciate a car with such fantastic lines.

I'm 19, my first car was a 71 el camino which i bought at 15 and restored, on my 18th birthday the el camino was hit on the way to a car show. A few months later i purchased the 73' vette. I've had it for about 6 months and am loving every second of it.
