Love your passion for Corvettes and that will take you a long way but like Blue Dragon was saying, you received some good information so take that to heart. These guys can really help you out because they have been down this road and learned some valuable lessons. Glad to have you on the forum and wish you the best of luck

Thank you.

I've loved cars my whole life, especially when my uncle first got his 67' GTO

A Vette has been my dream car for my whole life. If I could choose between a Viper, Corvette, Ferrari, and Lambo, I would choose a Vette. I just love everything about them. And I didn't know until about a year ago that 84-89 Vettes were so affordable and never once thought it would be in the price range of a first car. It's made me work really hard to try and earn money, just the thought of toolin around in a Corvette, and driving it to school, and bringing my friends and family around. It got me to get a Camp Counseller job, and buy a lawn mower (i cut me and 2 of my neighbors lawns). Ever since I have been looking on cars.com, autotrader, craigslist, and ebay at Vettes to feel out the prices and see what I will be getting when my time comes to get one. I know that one day one of those cars could be mine.

Hi I am new to this forum, but not new to corvettes. Hubby and I have owned a few vettes.

I am really trying to find my way around here and not doing so well, so if I dont get back here to say hi again dont be surprised, lol.

I have joined other chat forums (NASCAR) but I am finding this one difficult to navigate, but I am sure I will get it soon.

Hopefully I will find my way back here, right now I am trying to get on to advertise my corvette for sale.

See ya later
