New Owner 1965 Roadster
Well, my wife and have finally done it. After several Corvettes over the years, we purchased a 1965 Roadster from forum member 2-Reds. A Rally Red, 350 h.p., 4-speed car. This is a dream we have had for a long long time. Dale, I want to thank you again. We couldn't have asked for a more pleasant experience, and a nicer car. We can't wait to get her out and have a great time driving and enjoying the feeling of a true American classic. I will be spending a lot of time in here. This forum is a great learning experience.

Congrats on the acquisition, may you enjoy many miles of happy motoring. 
Was that the one that was posted in the for sale section? Looked like a very nice car.

Congratulations on your new 65. Looks like a beauty. Sidepipes and a 350 horse is a great combination
Enjoy the ride.
