Congratulations on the CE. Hey, are you a Coon ***?

LOL. sup joey! hey man after driving your dad's C4's this weekend it helped me make up mind! Big thanks to you and you dad on turning me on to the C4!

 

wohoo! booked the air ticket......checked the forcast for the area....so far so good!

 

be safe flyin up there and remember take off the top in cali

 

OK Mike...here are the rules. Now...I know you've been a member for over a year now, but with under 200 posts, you're still technically a n00b. This comes with certain responsibilities and encumbrances.

First...since I'm sure you're going to be travelling Interstate 10 on the way home between Cali and LA, you're obligated to stop in El Paso, show me the car, and buy me a beer. Sorry, part of being a n00b. Don't worry, I don't drink all that much....but it's considered common courtesy to let me drive the car. I'm sure you understand.

In all seriousness, sounds like you've found a cool car....and you'll thoroughly enjoy the road trip home. It wasn't a Vette, but I flew out to Los Angeles a few years ago, bought an old car, and drove it 800 miles home....VERY fun road trip, had a great time. No better way to get to know your new car. Take your cell phone, and if you run into trouble within 120 miles of El Paso either direction, give me a call and I'll arrange for you to be rescued. Also have a garage, tools, and a slight amount of knowhow on these old beasts after owning one for 11 years....if it hiccups, we'll get you back on the road. PM me for my phone number.

Have fun....enjoy the trip...OH...almost forgot....a cashier's check is your friend. Use a bank like Chase, Bank of America, etc like the others mentioned with a contact number so the seller can verify that it's legitimate, and all will be well.

 

Thank you! Thank you! i very much appreciate the offer i will get your number Friz! Man i couldn't sleep just thinking about the car, the drive, what if's..LOL the Corvette Brotherhood is awesome!!

 

Also when you get back to morgan city, you need to swing by the house and show me and my dad. We may have to go to no-problem raceway and run the CEs together

 

Does your bank have branches in that part of California? When you get there just go to the bank and get the cash.

You go buy the car and I'll stay home with the girl in your avatar. When you get back I'll give you my boat and you give me your new Vette. I'll already have the girl. We'll both be happy.

 

LOL. thats the wifey right there! soon as i get back gonna take a pic of the rear ends of the C4, C3 and the wife !!!

 

talked to the seller today, good chat and seemed like a really nice guy! i'll be arriving in san diego around 8:40am and hopefully on the road right after lunch! can't wait!!

 

You have obviously never been south of New Orleans!

 

I have been following this thread for a little while and just sent a PM with my cell number. (Just in case you run into any problems out here in So Cal), I live pretty close to Oceanside!

Tony

 

Hi Tony, you got pm.


Thanks man!!!

 

I was in New Orleans last week. I saw Grand Isle on the map and wanted to go there but didn't have the time.

It looked to be more of a sand bar than a town. I hope to get back there soon even though I don't care much for catfish.

 

i've been there a few times, went out a fishing trip thats what it's know for, great fishing. Tarpon rodeo i belive is their big one! and if you're thinking there's white sand beaches there you'll be disappointed! LOL
