Brand new member here, and a first time Corvette owner. I've been dreaming of a Classic Corvette for more than 30 years now, and for my 50th birthday, my wife SHOCKED me with a 1958 Red 4 speed. I had been resigned to the thought that I might one day get a C3, but she went above and beyond, with the help of my brother-in-law, nephew, and son doing the searching and selecting. I have the best wife and family a guy can ask for.
