Congrats!, and Happy B-Day
Beautiful C-5. I My Dad got me a 65 convt. for my 18th back in 71.
Nothing like a Vette on your 18th.
How about ( BDAY18) for your tag.
Good Luck with your Vette.

Be careful and respect the power. Good luck. It will be difficult to resist those other drivers trying to provoke you into a race. I know it is for me and I am 52. DON"T GIVE IN !
