My first Corvette! Who says an old dog can't learn new tricks?
Really grateful to have discovered Corvette Forum.

I’m a C3 guy, but love the tech built into the C8’s. Pretty dang sad you posted here and not a sole has replied 20 days later!!! Beauty of a Vette you have there sir. I’ve yet to drive or ride in a C8 (an acquaintance has one, but at our age, we just don’t hang out like we used to), but bet it’s a blast. I’m also in Central Floriduh, and just got active on here again after a long snooze (sold off my previous C3’s, about to get another) to connect with other Vette heads. Hope you are livin the dream with yours and hope to see you around!
I used to try and put together little cruise & meets around Central Floriduh. Once my new one is street worthy I plan to do so again. Let’s stay in contact. You gotta take me for a spin in that beast.

That's a plan!

Very cool! I’m in your area often as I am a window and door sales guy. I hope to get mine road worthy rather quickly, so I’ll reach out to you once I get something going. Reconnecting as time goes with some of those I used to associate with here (sadly, some have passed) and hoping to rekindle that Central Floriduh gang for some good times. Best wishes to you and hope to meet one day!
