Howdy, from a hopeful corvette owner.
Looking forward to learning from the corvette pros.
First off topic question. Anyone have any non floral Valentine gift ideas, for the wife?
Thanks
Jimbo

Welcome, Jimbo. Diamonds are always nice as is many other pieces of jewelry. A day at the Spa works too.

Welcome to the forum.

Nothing says love more than buying yourself a new Z06 just to take her away for an expensive spa weekend. She will be impressed, I just know it.
