I dont have a Vette yet,(looking to buy an 86-90,hopefully blue or black),
but I did grow up in a Vette family...growing-up my parents had a '78 pace car,later
an '82 and an '84. Now that I have saved (and talked my wife into it)
I will buy my first Vette as soon as I find the best at the best price :)



[Modified by Cobain, 10:14 PM 3/12/2002]sorry not an 84 pace car it was the '78...oh well I was 12, I all I remember is they were cool! LOL

Welcome to the "family". It sounds like your parents brought you up right. Hopefully, they let you drive theirs.

Good luck finding the vette you want! You will not regret it.
