First, thank you for accepting me. My husband just got me a 1987 Coupe C4, White w/black stripe down center. It needs plenty of TLC. The guy we bought it from left it in a barn for four years. So to me, it stinks. Just recently had automotive work done. Working on interior and purchasing what needs replacing. I never in my life thought I would ever have a Vette but I do now better late than never. Get a little excited tearing the old out and putting in the new. Hubby says I'm great at tearing things apart. Got new rims and tires at a great price and looking different from before. Will post pictures soon.

I bought a Torch Red 2016 Stingray in July. It had 13,000 miles and looked to be in great shape. So far so good! I am enjoying the local Cars and Coffee weekend events. Soon I will display my car at a more official show with judging and prizes for a Christmas event held in my local town.

Since I have had my car I have had paint protection film and ceramic coating added. Wider fender flares added to help prevent paint chips from rocks and debris. Red leather seat covers have been added. Lloyd mats with the Corvette logo for the front and cargo area, plus a few less significant accessories.

This summer I hope to take a road trip to Bowling Green, KY and visit the Corvette Museum and take a tour of the Corvette factory.

Hi, I’m new here obviously, I own a 67 convertible, both tops, Elkhart blue, 300hp 327, M20, 3.36 rear. Washington state, owned for about 2 years now. Just ordered a new DeWitts 941 restoration radiator for it. Repaint, 5k miles on rebuilt small journal, chassis dyno’ed/tuned, M20 freshened up, new clutch, exhaust, brakes, new windshield, weather stripping, all original interior, dark blue soft top. Runs great, was driven down to Phoenix and back after engine rebuild. Just a great driving car! Be with me till I can no longer physically drive!

Welcome to the forum. My first Vette was a 67 convertible with both tops.
