Default Goodbye for now!

Sold my 01Z today.

I will miss her! Hope to have another one in the near future. Thanks everyone for the friendships. This is truly a great place to hang out.

See you all in the near future hopefully.

There will always be a corvette out there. You can replace a car easily..however a child's education cannot be replaced.

One more thing photoguy... I am in the process of a garage addition. (to house the Vette)
I just can't seem to take down my darkroom. I am into medium format B&W photography.
Guys I work with jokingly give me stuff. Darkroom or Vette inside - whats the issue - Vette rules. Ahh, but its something I love. Stay connected on the forum, I may need to pic your brain on photography!

The Vette is something you enjoy... Your child is 'someone' ya love!

Hang around, you don't need to own a vette just like them. I understand and respect what you had to do. Hope you get another corvette in the future.
