Hello all. I live in Katy, close enough to Houston i am sure.

I bought my 2007 vert a few years ago and would love to get in contact with other vette owners. Especially C6 owners. I got my C6 as a little bit of a fixer-upper, nothing major wrong with it. Just lots of little things. I knew it was not prefect when I bought it. But that's what I wanted, something I can tinker around with in the garage and bring back to perfection.

Anyways, if anyone want to get together for a beer or a run somewhere let me know.

Hey Kenny,

I do a lots of reading and not much posting learn a lot from the group and am also a weekend worker not compketely retired just yet. if there is a late afternoon weekend get together I think I can be down for a meet up with all the Corvette lovers.

Another thing is that I think Houston just too spread out, and with all the damn construction going on makes it kind of hard to get together in any decent area

No doubt. And I hear they are considering make another loop around Houston outside the beltway. I am not into the corvette clubs or anything but I wouldn’t mind meeting new people and hanging out and learning more about the cars and mods for them

Do they have a regular web site? Reason I ask is because last year I made the decision to delete my FB account. It became infected with too much political BS and there were too many stories of personal info being stolen for my taste. I am open to more secure social media, like Whatsapp or telegram.

unfortunately i dont believe so the group is about half the reason i keep FB as i often deactivate for weeks at a time. sometimes i just get on to see whats going on with them. i totally understand the political thing most of those people i just unfollow. usually theres always some that show up to cars and coffee at memorial city mall each month.
