Red Headed Step Child
From the looks of things we who are willing to put up with the quirks of the LT1 Base Corvettes may some day soon make some decent money
on resale. I was at the Charlotte Corvette show on friday and there
was my 95 and one other early C4 convert they were flogging in the parking lot. Lots of C5 and too many modified C6 cars. Even some C2 and C3 cars. I found the same at the last C4 event at the museum last
year. Guess the bottom line is keep those C4 LT1 cars from being scrapped-they may gain value again.

I told my wife the other day, that if I should die suddenly, I want her to scrap the car. She asked why. I said, "you're still very attractive and you'll probably get married again, and I don't want some jerk getting my vette." She said "what makes you think I'd marry another jerk?"
