Default memory lane.............

Been a long time but I guess, according to this site, I have been here before.
I first got the Corvette fever in the 11th grade when my MOM, who did not drive, purchased my dream car..........a 1958 FI four speed corvette- this was our family car. That was in 1965. Sold it in 1972 and regretted having done so from the moment I did it.
After retirement in 2002, I restored a TOP FLIGHT "NCRS" 1957 Corvette jewel. Probably was when I had joined this forum.
I sold the '57, November 2009. Built my 1930 Ford Sports Coupe hotrod and finally accomplished my dream of purchasing another 1958 Corvette in June 2022. This is where I'm at now..................................

Looking forward to learning and sharing all I can about our beloved Corvettes.

LG,
Mike

It was appreciated at the past 4th of July car show in Southern California.
