Have been out of Corvettes for over 10 years. I have owned a 1971, 2001, and 2004. Used to be here on the forum as trex_47e.

Still shopping for my new to me vette, but leaning towards a C6 Grand Sport.

Time to dig in and learn what I can.

Thanks for all the welcome back notes. I think I have settled in on getting a C6. Looking for a 2012 Centennial Edition.

Here are my past rides...
