Almost a newbie
Hello everyone,
Like the title says, almost a newbie, I had a 1991 C-4 Vert a few years ago, then a lady in a rental car pulled a U-turn right in front of me while I was going to work. Well the insurance totaled it out and gave me a bunch of $$$$. I like a fool banked the cash instead of buying a replacement Vette. I have been kicking myself since. Well fast forward to today, I am now retired, living in Daytona, and attended the Spring Turkey Run today. I was walking through the Corral and a simply beautiful 1994 coupe in Bright Aqua Metallic called me. I could not leave without buying it, so guys and girls I am proud to say I'm back. My new friend is a two owner, 69,000 mile beauty, with all service records including the original window sticker. It is near mint owned by a senior like myself, LOL and has been garaged its entire life. And I think I stole it at $9000. Will post pics later. I am so glad to be back!!
