Default Ford guy with a Corvette

Hey Y'all I'm Mike. I'm a diehard Ford fan but I ran across a great C6 that I couldn't pass up and I must say I'm in love.

I am the complete opposite, I am a Chevy guy, but 6 years ago I found a 428 CJ 1970 Mustang that I couldn't stand to see continue rotting away. So I bought it and after 30 times over the original price ($1K)…I am still building the car. I love my car, but it I still prefer Chevy. WIth that said, I am a fan of all cars…except modern asian crap. I appreciate all of the old cars, including Mopars. Never owned one, well..I had a '54 Desoto that was traded for some tequila…(I got the car)….but I appreciate them. I am glad to see you loving your Vette.
