C5 of Year Finalist (appearance mods) 2019
Hi from Florida
Ron here from Florida.
Been a Vette nut my whole life and just parted with my 1975 that I bought new in 76.
Just bought a 04 convertible that that I really love.
Even with loving the new car came very close to trying to buy back my 75 the next morning just because it's been part of my life for over 40 years.
Slowly getting over her but to me the Vette is like a pet or family member.
Great to be a part of the group here too.

Welcome to the forum, Ron!
42 years is a long time to have a car. Hopefully your C5 will jump right in and take the place of your last one.
