Hi everyone.
I'm looking to pick up my first (hopefully of many) Vette after driving my friends C5Z06 in the fall. Fast car, definitely fun. I know my way around a garage, as I try to put in all the wrench time on my cars, but I've never worked on a Vette before. Mostly fwd models which are a pain imo. I've played with a few fun toys but there just seems to be something about the Vette that keeps a permagrin on your face everytime you mate the pedal and floor. So now I need one! Once those fancy tax returns come back I'll be looking to add an C4 LT1 to my garage. I've been around the site for a while now doing some research on what to get from all you Vette vets and this is great forum with some really great folks, so I figured that I'd sign up and introduce myself.
Thanks!
