Hello
I am new to the Corvette world, as the search is underway for a used C5 or C6 Corvette, the car I have wanted for years! I am joining the NM Corvette Club, and am new to the Corvette Forum. As a rookie to the world of Corvettes, I welcome tips from you more seasoned Corvette owners regarding how and where to look for solid used Corvettes (wedorman1@comast.net). Bill

All things Corvette. . . Welcome !
As other have welcomed you, so shall I. This is a great place for an what is an encyclopedia of Corvette items, repairs, modifications and knowledge. And I would be amiss if I didn't mention that a large number of our members have crossed the 200.000 mile threshold, so you will learn how tough these cars are and how far they will go with proper care.
Anyway, Welcome !
