Default New corvette guy
I am a hard core MOPAR guy but I have always said that at some point every American man should own a Vette, so I finally got one.
1996 Torch red with 30k miles, all stock. I plan on big cam, big exhaust amd big injectors and maybe a 150 or 200 shot.
I'm brand new to the Corvette world and plan on learning as much as I can.
