Default Finally On

This is Pete from OKC and now I am on the site to be able to participate in what is going on in the Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas, and the regional area. I maintain three older, driver cars (C2, C3, C4), like to do cruise-ins, shows, Cars and Coffee, and travel. I'm also into airplanes, bikes, and vans. I was a 30-year AF aviator (gunner and radio operator) starting in Vietnam, and finishing in Afghanistan. Connie has tolerated me for over 40 years and we equally enjoy the hobby. I really enjoy live music and play the drums so now you should have a solid match if we have previously met.

William, Thank you very kindly for the welcome. We drive them as much as possible, enjoy shows, cruises, and do road trips to Hot Springs Corvette Weekend, Eureka Springs Corvette Weekend, going to try to get to Cruisin the Coast in Biloxi this year, and looking forward to the shows all over the state of Oklahoma. Customer service sounds like a dream job, do you enjoy it? Pete K.
