Default New from Minnesota

Hi, I am from Maple Grove, Minnesota

I drive a 2002 Camaro Z28. I registered here because I recently got promoted at my work to be the Corvette Mechanic since everyone there hates working on them. I was an apprentice under a very experienced corvette mechanic (30+ years of experience) for 2 years while I was in school.
I work at a Chevy Dealership. I am 22 years old. I thought this would be a good site to go on if I ever get stumped on a corvette.

Default Welcome

I'm late to the party, but Welcome to the Corvette Forum - Lots of great information & knowledgeable Vette owners here! I'm surprised no one wants to work on them at your shop - I find mine pretty easy to work on.

Welcome,
Which dealership do you work for? Congrats, you are on top of the food chain at 22 years old thats pretty damn impressive Some of the guys on this forum are very smart and you will get a ton of info if you are in trouble. This place is like dealerworld beta 2.1

See ya
Randy
