Introducing myself on the C3 Boards
Hey there!
I've been participating on the C4 and C5 boards for a long time, been to all the Cruiseins and just got lucky where money and the right car came into my life at the right time and I am now the proud owner of a C3 as well.
I have owned 2 '72's and a '74 in the past, all 4-spd coupes, but I've got religion now about owning convertibles.
I want to appreciate Eddie Clark, a real gentleman and Corvette lover for being willing to sell me this 3-owner Texas car.

You'll get to see her at the Snowman Barbecue next Summer if you can get to Texas.

WOW, What a small world. I was one of the NCRS judges that judged that car at the 2001(I believe)New Orleans, LA NCRS Regional meet & did the Ops check at one of the NCRS Regionals at Stone Mountain, GA(either 2001 or 2003). It's a very nice car

Hi Snowman: It has been a while since you took all those trips from Atlanta to Texas in that 97. I sort of transition here from other places as well, so welcome to the C3 world.
As I remember the 97 was quite a car, so where is it now?

Hi Snowman, I might you at the 3rd Cruise-in. You had a very nice C5 (White?) at the time and was talking about a Camaro project if I remember correctly

Hey Doug, welcome over to the rowdy bunch! I see you've made the official switch from all white to blue and white. Great looking car!!!
Hopefully we should see you again at the Snowman BBQ this summer.

Congrats on returning to the C3 group Doug.
I have met Doug a couple of times at BG events and he is a class guy and a lot of fun. Corvette and hot rod guy to the bone.

Snowman, I loved your white C5. Matter of fact, it has been one of the few that had the ability to draw my interest away from C3's. And you can go ahead and sign me up on the list of garage envy.
