Just a point of info gang, I am the big brother, and the op was my loving sister, who posted that message. She is almost as excited as I am, she lives in California, I'm in NJ, yet it's like she is next door. She surprised me with a C5 Corvette hat today, which is typical of her.
btw, this tuesday I will be picking up my first hot car after 48 years of driving. It's a black 2002 Z06 box stock with 16k miles...and THERE WILL be pix!!!!
