Default Newbie from TX

Hey everyone,
I have perused the forum for awhile but not chimed in til now. I have owned 3 C4s, 1 reg 85, sold due to divorce, 1 Z51, move from CA to TX casualty and #2180 1990 ZR1 (economic casualty). I am now on the search for my wish car: C3 68 or 69 427/4speed convertible. Gave up on the 65 396/4sp long time ago. Looking forward to being an owner member rather than wannabe owner member. Take care
