Hello All,

I don't know if any of you remember me, but I used to be on here a lot a few years back. I picked up my shiny new Z06 back in Jul 2000, but unfortunately I had to let her go when I moved from NorCal to Austin.

Anyway, I was just going through some boxes I had in storage and I found a whole bunch of Z06 memorabilia that I collected by in 2000.
I've posted it for sale in the C5 parts section, so take a gander and let me know if there's anything you want.

Now I'm sad, I miss my Vette!

Welcome back. Sorry about your loss. That was one of the first C5 Z06's off the line.

Yes it was! I ordered it sight unseen before the specs were even known.

My neighbor a few houses down (and a CF member) owns the first C5 Z06 documented for sale to the public. It is a Torch Red Z which he confirmed it's history with the NCM.
