Default New member long time Vette owner

Hello to all my peers. I am a new member to this forum. I am happy to be in good company. About myself: I am a 72 year old ole fart. I have 2 vettes currently ( well the 74 belongs to my daughter, her first car 18 yrs ago) the other is a low mileage 89 convertible. I owned Corvette Enterprises in Dillsboro In for 27 years. I have owned many vettes in my life including two 1953s ( #s 121 and 256) I know where # 121 is but I would like to know where #256 is. I had to sell it after owning it for over thirty years to settle my divorce. ( still don't think that was fair I had it 2 years before her) it is the one I had at Bloomington Gold Special collection on the display so you could see the frame, engine, body and original interior. I don't want to intrude on anyone's privacy but it has been 18 years and I would love to know what the ole girl has been up to. Thank you Harold I forgot to mention I owned #256 for 30 years before I had to give her up.

Welcome from an older fart - 76. Just acquired my second 63 Coupe. First one in 63 until wrecked day befroe leaving for South Korea at the invitation of Uncle Sam. Stolen, stripped when I got home. Oh well, a sad story ends well.
