Default First Vette

After being a lifelong Ford owner and enthusiast, I finally own my first
Vette, 1999 coupe 6spd navy blue, high miles but original owner,
non-smoker, all records and in excellant condition and a great deal.
I have allready ordered vararam intake an air bridge and cags. All vital fluids will be changed to Amsoil shortly.I have been reading the forums for several months and have found the information to be invaluable.I live in the San Francisco/ Daly City area and am looking for local members and a regional club to get involved with.
Thanks

Congrats on your new ride and I applaud your choice of fluids.

Though I don't live the Bay Area any more, I'm from there and still consider it "home" (Navy took me away years ago and without any bases there anymore, small chance I'll ever really make it back).

Good luck finding local clubs.
