From Chevelle to Corvette, new guy here!

Hi there, my name is Tobias and i am from bavaria, southern germany!

Me and some friends of mine are us car guys since two decades. I am a mechanic and imported and restored a 67 chevelle by my self in 2008 to 2012, and this car makes so much fun to drive in the bavarian and austrian alps and mountain passes. Its always an eye-catcher.
Now time has come to finally find my dream car, a 65 or 66 C2 coupe. I have been reading in this forum for years, finally i got an active member.
So i hope to hava a nice time together here.

many greetings,
Tobias

Heres a pic of my 67, its a real SS code 138, 4 speed, 12bolt posi with bucket seats. Completely restored to original stock condition.

Welcome to the CF! I was just driving through that area after seeing the F1 GP in Hockenheim. Truly beautiful country down where you are at. Nice Chevelle as well.
