New 1998 owner, I have owned my 1969 for 40 years

I just bought a 1998 Corvette to go on trips with. I have owned a 1969 conv. 350/350hp 4 speed for 40 years. I needed cruise and air in my retirement. They are great bookends!

Usmc c5z06

Hi USMC CZ06,

I entered an intro on you intro. I thought I was starting my own intro on a new thread. I am sorry this happen. I will try to figure out how to right this wrong.

With that being said, you bought a great looking C5. It was a great choice! Love the color.

If you or any other member can tell me how to do the intro right it would help me very much. I will remove my intro from yours.

Sorry, this is a great site.

Mark
