Default Just a guy
Hey everyone, im just a guy who been dreaming of corvettes ever since I started playing with the toy versions of them when I was in diapers. But we all know life tends to get away from us and before you know its 28yrs later and I'm finally looking to make this dream come true. One corvette type has always attracted me the most, the C3, the same one I played with as a kid. Now time to go on the hunt, find one, fix it up, and live the dream.
