Default Sailors98Vette

Hey everyone, just joined and wanted to set everyone know alittle about me. I was born and raised in Sacramento, CA, but after high school I joined the Navy. Since I have been in the Navy I have worked on F/A-18 Super Hornets, done a year in Iraq, and now I am working on the E-6b Mercury.

I was mostly into imports while I was in high school, but after I got into the Navy I got a 69 C-10, and I was fixing that up for a while, but I have always wanted a vette, so I sold the truck and got my first Vette.
Its a 1998 coupe with only 38000 miles on it. Only thing the previous own had done was a Borla Exhaust. Besides that it is all stock. It has the ox blood interior. Any other question feel free to ask, and if there is a vette group in Oklahoma let me know I would love to get together.
