Great to be back
Hi everyone a little history had a Frost blue 78 in 82-83.Then a Frost Biege 81 in 84. Then a two tone silver 84 in 85 sold in 86 and have been Vette-less ever since that is until this past Labor Day weekend when I purchased an immaculate 08 Victory red z51 with 26000 miles manual transmission,2 roofs, beautiful chrome wheels and performance exhaust. I actually just finished my alimony payments and did not expect to purchase so fast but it was the right car at the right time. I just happened to stumble upon it at my local Chevy dealer. My new fiancé and I were together during the Vette days then split. She always remembered me with one and when we got back together she vowed that once all was settled I would get one. Well I am no longer Vette-less and it feels great. I am finally whole again after 35 years of lusting after others vettes .I am happy to be back in our special community this car creates. My fiancé cried when the deal was done and so did I. GREAT TO BE BACK!
