Default Corvette Indiana

Hey guys,

I thought it might cool to have a listing of everyone who is in Indiana that owns a corvette and is active on this site. I can put together a map of Indiana showing where people are from.

Also, this could be a way to see who is around each other for help or general hanging out. If there is enough interest maybe we could start our own meets or something.

So tell us your name (if not in the username), where you are from, and what you drive.

Name: Francis
Location: Born in Tipton, attending Purdue University in West Lafayette
Vehicle: 1980 Yellow Manual Corvette

PS. if there is a better way to do this, please let me know.

I no longer live in Indiana, but I was born in Marion and spent the first 10 years of my life in Fairmount. We moved to Buffalo Grove, IL just before my 11th birthday. I spent most of my summers with my grandmother in Fairmount until I graduated from high school in 1967. I enlisted in the Marine Corps in 1967 in Marion and left for boot camp from Indianapolis. I still have friends in Fairmount, Spencer, Nashville, etc.

It seems this is all over and with all vehicles. Had a Lightning for a long time (10 years) that I recently sold. The local group just melted away and it became time for something different.

Actually have had thoughts of getting a nice 1500 or a 2500HD truck so I could get a cap and take not only the family but dogs on trips in the futire and haul a camper behind.

Camping can become very addictive, for a while we combined both, car shows and rv'ing, don't even do much of that anymore. I do still have everything to travel, it is just easier flat towing my Grand Cherokee. My Avatar has pictures of my RV.
