Slowest Day EVER!!!!
Waiting for Fedex to show up with the paperwork from my lender so I can drive down and pick up my '03. I've cleaned the house, played a couple video games, played with the dog, twiddled my thums, and read every thread on this forum. I'm about to begin pulling my hair out!! 
Hopefully not much longer until
This is my first Vette, so I'm like a little kid on Christmas Eve.

Just called Fedex, and they said delivery was guaranteed by noon, meaning, if it's not here yet, it won't be here until Monday!!!
So.....I've pretty much wasted a day here waiting on nothing.

Well, that sucks!!! 
If delivery was gauranteed by noon, then it should be there BY NOON, not MONDAY!
I'm sorry to hear you've wasted the morning, but even more sorry to hear you won't be driving your new baby today!

At about 4:00, I called the guy that I bought the car from, and told him what was going on. Long story short, I got the car even though the mail didn't come. I've been cruisin' around town ever since.
I took some good pics when I first got it - I'll try to post them in a minute.
Have fun
