Default Vetteless No More!

It's been about five years since I sold my 91 Vette. Ever since, I promised myself I would get another Corvette.

This weekend I picked up a triple black 99 convertible. With a 6 speed and low miles (23K), it was just what I was looking for. The previous owner took meticulous care of the car. For now, it is bone stock. Again, just what I was looking for. I'd prefer to do the mods myself

Here are two pics of my ride. It's great to back behind the wheel of a Corvette!
