Introducing myself
Hello Corvette forum members. My name is Curt Bowers and I’m new to the forum. I’m an A&P Aircraft mechanic after 18 yrs with UAL I’m now a Longshore Crane Mechanic at the LA/LB Ports. I’m also a private pilot building a Vans Aircraft RV-14 Airplane. My father recently bought a 63 SWC and I may be acquiring a family members 61 Corvette and the information I’ve found so far is fantastic. I’m looking forward to learning much more about C1 and C2 Corvettes and this is the perfect place. Thank you and I look forward to meeting many members!
