About Time
I was just 16 when the new C4s came out in '84, I worked on my dad relentlessly with brochures and magazine reviews of the cars. He finally cracked in '85 and bought a brand-new one. That Spring afternoon was the single best car day of my life.
1991 Corvette
Owing to that time in my life, A Corvette of my own has always been in the cards, a C4 in particular, and Saturday I made it a reality...

Thanks. I solicited some buying advice from these forums and used it. The main thing was to embrace my desire for the 6 speed. So glad I did.
