Hi guys/guys! I'm new to the forum and just bought my first vette a little over a month ago. I bought KennyD's vette from him. It is a 2006 Z06, 2lz that had 13,900 when I picked it up. I flew out to NM and drove it back to STL. Kenny was a hell of a nice guy and it was a pleasure to have met him!!!

My name is Dan BTW!
