Default Greetings from Kentucky

Hows it goin, people? Look forward to getting to know everybody on here. Im a 35 yr old guy thats spent the last 25 years of his life loving Vettes (among other American cars. I dont judge, lol). It all started for me when my first cousin got a beautiful 1972 convertible for his senior year in high school in 1977. He kept the car until hard times fell on his family, and he sold it in 2003. Everytime we'd go to my aunts house when I was younger, I would sit in that car, wondering when my day would come. But since then, a few members of my family (both sides, mind you) have bought Vettes. No thanks to almost getting killed in the coal mines, crushing my back, ribs, leg, knee, and pelvis. Several metal rods, screws, crossmembers, mesh cages in my back, a plastic knee and caged abdomen later, I received my settlement, and was finally able to purchase my dream car. A 2002 C5 Z06. Its had some cam and head work done, borlas, and it was perfect in and out. I bought it off of the original owner, no less. But, I am a Vette lover through and through. I love the oldies, the C3s, 4s, 5s and how could anyone not like the C6s?? So, give me a shout!

Well...Glad you still here to injoy the vette. Sounds like you've had n ordeal to say the least. Now be careful in that vette don't need to survive a coal mine disaster just to loseit in a vette. Welcome to a great site,jump right in and join the fun.

Only one catch,....you have to post some pictures of your new Vette. We love pictures.Cheers
