I'm finally Back !
 
Well after selling my C6 a little over 3 years ago I'm back in a Vette ! I sold my C6 before I retired in 2014, an deeply regretted it ! The opportunity came up to buy a 2001 Magnetic Red Convertible this past June so I jumped on it.
I couldn't pass it up as it was in perfect condition with 32 K on the clock . I have had a 91,98,2005 in the past so I'm not a stranger to Corvettes .I look forward to reconnecting with some of my friends that I have made on this forum an maybe making it back to the Bash next year ! ( For now the avatar the only picture I have of it . )

Congratulations. I had a 2001 convertible. I tracked it two or three times a year and averaged 20-25 quarter-mile passes a year. Had 85K on the clock when I sold it and never had any problems. It was bulletproof! :thumbs:

Yes he got over that, but he passed away a couple of years ago and is truly missed, he also owned over a dozen corvettes in his life time.
