Default Hello from South Jersey

Hello everyone!

Allow me to introduce myself... the name's Channing and I'm a deaf college student who owns a 1993 40th anniversary Corvette and lovin' it!
Right now I'm trying to get some work done on the motor and get it running (needed some work including heads being shaven and new gaskets)
Hoping for a new different paint job for it in the future as well but too broke for that.
Anyways, I've always wanted to join a corvette related forum but never became motivated enough to do so, due to the fact that I would fade in comparision to the "corvette veterans". I might quite possibly be one of the youngest here! (19)

Anyways... just wanted to say hello from south NJ!

p.s. Do any of you (who reside in South Jersey) attend those Friday car shows at Fuddruckers?


Here's my car

(most recent picture with stock C5 wheels + eagle F1 run flats)





Old pic, when I had chrome wheels (still have them) but they have incredibly BALD tires on them. Wish I could use them still.

Thanks! I agree, the chrome wheels do look better but I make better use of the eagle F1 tires on the other wheels :/

Thanks for the link to the thread as well. I didn't notice that one.
