Default MuttznMongrelz/40th Anniversary Edition Convertible

Located in Littleton, CO. Previously owned a 1981 Silver w/Red Leather & Smoked Mirror T-Tops and 1969 350/350 4 Speed Canary Yellow T-Top. Last Vette was in 1982 so it's truly "been a while".

Wound up in a position to pick up a 1993 40th Anniversary Edition Convertible with Factory Hardtop that was priced acceptably and took a chance on it. Far from perfect at 100k miles but it runs fine and still turns heads and gets comments. Needs some TLC and has the typical power seats not working, floppy door panels and a non-functional radio...all of which lead me to the forum in the first place as I was researching all of those for fixes. Still not fully sure about retaining it but enjoying it while I make that determination.

Default Thanks everyone!




Thanks everyone! Really appreciate the gracious welcome. Have to admit I’d forgotten just how much fun it is driving a Corvette.

Add to that the ease with which the top goes down on it; way easier than the ‘71 MGB and ‘68 MGC I owned in my early 20’s while serving in the US Army at Fort Ord, CA.

She is a very different beast than my previous ‘69 and ‘81 but I’m sure enjoying getting to know her.

Default So it begins...

Just ordered a new 3 piece front spoiler and mounting kit from Ecklers so that I may replace the currently damaged one.
