Hello,

My name is Steve and I live in North Texas. I bought a 2002 Vette, base model a few months ago to be a little sister to my Challenger. I love my little baby and plan on doing many mods to improve her. I am a USAF retiree and still do contractor work. I hope to learn a lot about corvettes and things to improve them.
