Default Hello

Been lurking for awhile, figured it was time to join. I'm a mechanic by trade in Indianapolis. Believe it or not, mechanics don't know everything. I've been working on more vettes in the last five years than i have in the last twenty. It is always nice to have additional resources of information, especially on topics that are not thoroughly captured elsewhere.

Thanks for the having me.

Welcome to the forum.

I've had 7 Vettes, but don't have one right now. Have never worked on any of them. Just fed them and watered them.

Welcome! Also a mechanic, well was. Didn't realize, I needed to relearn the trade, to fix my C6. Broken and fixed almost everything. Alot of special procedures on these cars. Fixing to drop the engine, TT, trans/rear, not gonna lie, stressing a little. This forum has been a life saver for me.

I'm in the same boat. My husband always had vettes around, figured I'd join in the fun. Welcome!

Welcome!

I'm only an hour from you in Columbus Indiana. I was a mechanic in the '80s in Cincinnati.
