New member intro
Hello, I'm 66 years old and bought my first Corvette this past Friday.It is a black 1984 coupe with 83,000 miles. It runs beautifully. I have several collector Mercedes. This is a new adventure to which I'm looking forward. I'm a retired electrical engineer. I recently sold my consulting business and am now enjoying my hobbies. I live in Central Illinois. Best to all and thanks for the opportunity to introduce myself.
