Default Hello, from Texas!
I'll admit, I've always wanted a vette since I was about 10 years old. Friends of my parents had, I think, a 67 back then and friends of ours now have a 99 Artic white C5 coupe. I'm liking it more and more everytime they let me drive it and the husband sez since his F250 is now paid for, it's MY turn to get what I want. Soooooo....... I'm in the market for a vette but we're saving so we can pay cash.

If you don't mind, I'm just going to hang here for awhile, drool and try not to get beat down in PRC and OT

Thank you for the warm welcome. Hopefully soon I can be driving around in my own vette and get together with other owners on some of the Corvette runs - and maybe I'll eventually be able to keep up with some of you
