Hey Everyone I am the new guy. I am currently selling my 03 Ram and getting an 89' Vert. I am originally a Ford guy (98 GT & 03 GT). I took a brief break from cars and got into the Ram but realized I am not a truck person, and when the chance came to get into a Vette I jumped on it. I have already used your site to fix my dash and hope that all my problems in the Vette are as easy to fix as the dash lights.

So basically HELLO.

:Welcome to the board, and congrats on the new Vette. I too used to be a die-hard Ford guy also untill I sold my '01 Stang and got the '92 Vette. Never going back to the blue oval again.

You know it never ceases to make me smile when I see someone get out of Ford. Welcome, but keep this in mind, a Corvette is a love hate relationship. Everyone loves to look at them, but not many have the patience to work on them. I've learned in my short ownership you always like to look at it but hate the thought of fixing it.

Bahhh, you'll love it regardless, I've had some and am on a posting frenzy.

Here have one,
