Hello from OKC, OK
Hello all. I have been on here a few days posting in the C3 section about a vette I am looking at getting. I thought I would pop in here and do my formal intro..
I have always loved the corvette especially the string ray models. One of the earliest memories of my now passed father was in his 77 stingray. From what my mother tells me he had a 1973 red one and then a 1977 yellow one.
Through a friend I have an opportunity to pick up this 1980 C3 that I have been posting about in that section forums. I am 98% sure that I will end up getting it.
Here is a picture of the one I am considering.

Howdy from Edmond. Just an FYI, there is a large, all-Corvette car show at Mark Heitz Chevrolet in Norman this Saturday (15th). Check the Southwest section of the forum for more info.
