There are a lot of nice Vettes around here. If you want to know where the best pie, or donuts or other local good places to eat let me know. I work scond shift so if you want to meet for coffee someplace let me know. I think there's another Turq,Met in town I've seen several other Vettes and most wave. My Radio is out being fixed should be back next week I took the vette so I should be back on the road soon. You mentioned on an earlier post about some needed repairs were you able to do them? hope so. Take Care and keep it between the white lines
:D :D

Good luck on the job. I hear a lot about the Opti thingy I guess having a pre opti"crap" is a plus although another 50hp would be a good thing.
Drive hard but only as fast as your angel can fly.
