Default My first Corvette

Hello all,
I am new to the corvette arena. I recently purchased an very nice 1992 corvette with 30k miles. It is a red six speed. I have primarily been into the 1 generation big block camaros such as COPOs, ZL1s and Yenko cars and have owned quite a few. I fell in love with the C4s when I was 18. A girl in my hometown was given a brand new ZR1 in 1990 by her father. She was 19 years old. I rode in the car and have loved the C4s every since. I would like to post a couple of pics of my C4 that I recently purchased, but I am not sure how. Anyway, I am glad to be part of the site and look forward to learning about corvettes.

Aloha and welcome to the CF, congratulations on your C4 purchase. To post pictures you need a hosting site so use this site to upload your pictures to:

http://www.photobucket.com

This is a free site and most of us here use it.

Once you upload your pictures keep the site open and then open another internet connection with the CF site open. Once you start a post you can click back and forth and copy and paste you pictures into the post.

That must have been one lucky girl...Wow a ZR1 @ 19! I had an 82' Celica GT with bondo spots at 19
I've always liked the C4, to this day they still look amazing when I see them on the road!!
