Default Counting down the hours......

I'm counting down the hours to aquiring a 1995 Arctic White Coupe......
It's the first thing I think about when I wake up!
I will have to travel for this car, but it will be worth the trip.
We leave South Central Kentucky on Wednesday @ 5AM en route to Central Illinois.
Wish me luck Corvette Brothers and Sisters!

Sounds like fun. There's nothing like buying a new Vette and taking a long road trip. I hope the weather cooperates for you. Have fun
