Default Finally got a stable mate

After years of sweating in stopped traffic on hot summer days, I finally got one with climate control. I can't wait until spring!

Every time I come in here and look at this thread that 67 looks more sexy every time!

How far are you from Virginia man? We should meet up when spring comes around.

I've enjoyed the 67 since 91 and thought about selling it a couple of times over the years. I took it to Carlisle around 2001 and put a price tag of 35000 on it figuring if someone gave me that crazy money, I'd have to let it go. A fellow from NY was hanging around all Thursday morning asking questions and looking. He came back around lunch and offered me 32000 cash which I told him I'd think about. About an hour later, I packed my bags and took it home and put it back in the garage.

Got the 02Z last month and find it a BLAST! What a car and a world apart from the 67.

Mount Joy Dingo, about 15 miles west of Lancaster. We have a nice Vette and GM show in the fall every year at Long's Park in Lancaster called American Legends.

Whew, that's a drive from here! I'm kind of in the middle of the state. By the time next fall rolls around, I'll have already transferred to Tennessee so I doubt I'd make it up that far!

Beautiful cars though, man. I'll leave your thread alone now lol

That must suck to now have to decide which one to drive. I would have a tough time leaving the 67' behind.
