Default G'day from Australia!

Hi guys/gals,

Corvette noob from Sydney Australia checking in. I'm the current owner of a 2002 RX-7 Spirit R Type A, Titanium grey metallic, #549 of 1500 made. I love Medium Spiral Gray, targa top C5 'vettes. My G/F presently lives in San Jose and we're talking about getting married, so when we do American muscle is my goal!. I've lived in the San Fran bay area in the past, I'm a helicopter pilot and flew for Helicopter Adventures Inc. outta Concord, then piloted Jetcopter 810 for KGO outta Hayward.Love the 'States and spent the best years of my life there and have always had a hankerin' to return for good!. I'm SLOWLY getting my head around V8 pushrod terminology/technology from my present love of twin turbo/twin rotor RX-7's so forgive me for any STOOPID questions!. I'd love to get some pics of my present ride on here but obviously don't have that option on this forum, anyway looking forward to being a member of the 'vette community until the day I get my hands on my own MSG baby!,

cheers all,

Raff.
