Hello all. My name is Joe. I am another newbie to Corvettes. I've always really liked them as someone else's car. The C7 said "take me home!"
I'm an old school car guy. I have a 69 Camaro a freind and I built and am President of our local car club, Boyz Under the Hood.
Also now the proud owner of a Torch Red 3LT Z51 (Automatic-wife wouldn't go for the 7 speed). It's our retirement gift to ourselves!
I am an active member of a similar forum on First Gen Camaros, Camaros.net. I have learned so much on that site! I am looking forward to participating here and learning as much as I can from fellow Covette folks.

Joe
