Hi everyone, I have owned a number of Corvettes over the past 30 years. Was a member about 15 years ago when I had two ‘69 T-tops. Then sold the two that I had and was without for a while. Bought an 02 and enjoyed that for sever years and about a year ago I bought a Velocity Yellow 2006 which I just love. Base model. Previous owner who is a friend had some work done to it including bolt-ons. I recently had a Procharger installed. Learned so much from everyone here over the years and look forward to my membership into the distant future. Will be posting something in a different section on a hood pad/blanket for my base ‘06 which was discontinued in 2011 by GM and seemingly cannot be found anywhere in the country other than pads with the ZO6 or Z51 logo on it. Literally spent hours calling and searching and coming up with nothing. See you guys around the site!

Thank you for your welcome Route99! Yes, it does run real strong although had a lot of expensive hitches came up during the installation of the Procharger by the performance shop. All has been worked out thankfully. Nice to have a good reliable Corvette to enjoy during the start of my retirement 😁.
