First Corvette
So I'm a little slow on getting this post up, but better late than never.
Last friday I drove to Dallas with my friend Pete and I picked up my first Corvette, 2004 Black Coupe with a glass roof, and Z51 package. It had been at the dealership for about 30 days, so they had no issues letting it go for a good deal.
It has sense been lowered on the stock bolts, Skip-shift eliminator installed, and the stock intake box has been modified.
I look forward to doing more and enjoying the community.
