Default Happy New Year from NC

Hello forum members.
Dennis here from NC. 48yr old car (and especially Corvette) lover since the age of 11 or 12. First saw a picture of a 1963 Coupe on a framed poster at a flea market in FL with my parents. Convinced them to purchase it for me and still have it to this day. Have had a '77 for many years and had a lot of fun with her. Just got an Admiral Blue '95 in excellent shape from PA and love it.
Planning on enjoying many nice days with the girl and also many events this year.

Hope everyone has an even more prosperous and wonderful 2020.

Best regards.
Dennis

Thanks Jack. Honestly, the Admiral Blue in my opinion is the best color for the C4 and the only one I considered. It took a while to find the right one. But I did and am very pleased.
Its a gorgeous rare color. Even my wife (who has never been a fan of Corvettes) saw it come around the corner on the trailer and said "DAMN! that car is gorgeous!"
She didn't believe me when I said a picture doesn't do it justice...LOL

So you mean i'm not the only one with great taste?? Man...that makes me feel good. Changes my thoughts of painting her White and Grey marble patterned.


Yeah...I actually saw a C4 painted that way. If they're a member and see this...it's hideous man.

Thnaks for the welcome Sabre.
