my vette is very stock atm, and in the shop right now to be honest about it. the front spring broke. 87K mikes. a few weeks ago the right front wheel/rim cracked. been a tough month with the car.

I use this car for my daily driver and weekend travels. I'll see about pics some when I get it back. after all I am a photographer.

Stock is OK! Rare on this Forum, but OK.

Since you are a photographer, we better have pics, and soon!

And now that you've decided to join us, fill out your profile. We'd all like to get to know you.

A photographer without pics of his vette? What do you photograph, sunspots and lunar eclipses?
Just busting your chops a little. Seriously, Welcome to the family!
