I will mostly lurk and try to learn so that when he talks on and on about "car stuff" it won't sound like a buch of jibberish
Laura, You've developed a highly tuned sense of what's

You Rock! Welcome Aboard!

Hi Laura,

Here's a pic of mine. My daughter (age 33) and son-in-law are currently rebuilding their 70 model so we can go cruzin' together.

My 60+ wife is definitely not a car chick, but she does like to cruise in the Vette with the top off in cool weather.

Welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the forum! I think that it's cool that you joined up. Even though my wife likes the Vette, she doesn't care enough about it to actually join the forum.

Welcome Laura! My wife loves my (ooops! OUR) Vette. She loves to participate in all the Vette activities, except she won't drive it (I guess that's a good thing!)or help me detail it (also a good thing! )

Enjoy the ride!
