Default First Vette

I have been interested in Corvettes all my life and finally made the jump and purchased a 2000 Vert. Green/Tan loaded. I also have a 1958 Ford Skyliner Retractable Hardtop that I like to bring to cruise ins and shows.

My older brother got me into Corvettes as he has owned them since he was 16. I think he has had 40+ Vettes since 1968. I bought my 2000 of of him so I know its a good car.

Looking forward to participating on this forum.
