Hey, another CF guy in Salem?? Awesome, what part of town are you in? What Corvette do you have? Saw a mag red C5 on River Road today and waved. Did not get a response, but then again I was in my MR2 Spyder, haha. There is another CF guy in Salem named jdgun 0013, you might have seen his post about selling parts off his Z06. Here I thought I was the only one in town. Good to know otherwise! Did you make it to the Spruce Goose today...it is another gorgeous day here, so it means we are in for a long, wet Spring, ending around the 4th of July again!!! Jon

No I did not make it. I had to stick around today, sold my 78. So I did some spring cleaning etc. There is another cf member out this way. His name is YELRZEE. He drives a mil. yellow 2001 Z, with green hash marks on the fender. I don't think he is on here much since he has been here 2 years and has 22 posts, but I see him around out south now and again.

LOL ... I thought it was a cross between the Experimental Aircraft Museum in Oshkosh, WI and Aberdeen Proving Ground in Aberdeen, MD (two places I've spent way too much of my life at)

Default Additional pics!

Here are a few more pics from my solo cruise yesterday to the Spruce Goose, mostly slight variations of the pics already posted. Hope you like these too:






Had a short drive at dusk today since rain could arrive tomorrow. Just can't get enough of the C5! Hope you guys have good weather for airing your Corvettes out on Sunday! Jon
