Praise to him !!
Hello to all !! I purchased my first corvette this past Fathers day, a present to myself (with momma's blessing of course), always wanted one but could not afford one (raised 5 kids), as a child use to build the scale model kits of corvettes, camaros, novas (loved chevys) used color thread for spark plug wires, fancy testor color paint jobs and so on. Loved the 69 vette, wanted to own one, but to expensive in the long run to own. Turned 50 this year and told myself now or never. Started looking in Feburuary of this year and up until that magical day on June 16th, I found the second love of my life, a 1998. light Carmine red C5, all stock with pewter/black interior, with all the options and only 51k on the speedo and in excellent condition for a 10 year old vette(always garaged, never seen rain), . God had answered my prayers. Now I have joined the brotherhood of vette's and have already started the transformation of my 98. Thank you for having me and safe driving to all.
