Default It's about time!

Hello all, I'm PhillH,
I remember it, and I'm sure you all do as well. The first time I rode in a Vette was my friend's who bought one back in 96, gorgeous 93, polo green with a tan interior, it was the most beautiful car I had ever seen.
Luckily my friend was one of those who thought it was no fun to have a toy if you didn't share it, so I got to use it for all my dates. I said to myself "someday I WILL have one of these". I've decided it's time, why wait, I have no kids, we have a truck, it's definitely time. So I've sold the BMW, searched and found a 93 polo green with tan interior and the only thing missing on my friend's, a 6 speed manual! I'll hopefully be picking it up Friday as long as it passes my pre-inspection, and I am so excited to
finally be able to be part of the Corvette family. I just wanted to introduce myself and let all of you know that I'm likely going to have a bunch of questions for you, I will search first as to not be annoying.
So, hello to all! Phill.
