Default Hello


Hello,
I have been a Chevy muscle car and hot-rod fan for years, with ownership including 1969, 1970, & 1971 Chevelles and a 1975 Corvette.
It's been many years, but I'm back now with a 2014 C7 Stingray that I have purchased through Carvana, It should be delivered next week.

I'm looking forward to accessing lots of tech information, advice, and experience related to C7 Corvettes on this forum.

Congrats on the pending delivery of your C7 - I would bet you are going to love how far a Corvette has come since the '75 that you owned. Welcome to the forum and enjoy the site.

Well the Carvana purchase of the Yellow 2014 Stingray pictured in my original post didn't work out. Carvana missed two promised delivery dates with weak excuses and i cancelled my order.

Subsequently I found a 2015 Stingray in Crystal Red Tintcoat with only 5400 miles at a local dealership and I bought it.
