Hi, my name is Jennifer and a few months back my husband came across this gorgeous corvette at a ridiculous price. Knowing that I've always wanted one he went and checked it out. We are now the proud owners of Delilah, a 1999 C5. I am absolutely in love and get upset when he decides he's going to take her for the day. I don't want to share!





He's been bugging me about coming on here so I can find out more about her and get more involved in her maintenance and modifications. So, here I am!

Thanks guys!

Sabre - those are our other babies! They're quite the handful, we're thinking they'd make a pretty decent sled team!

No, but that's where my husband is from and where we'll be in the next few years. Our friends have three too, and they use a 4-wheeler with the engine pulled as their "sled". Their dogs are a lot better behaved than ours though.
