I knew the Corvette guys would be all over me as many really care a lot, perhaps too much, about the cleanliness of their cars.

Piemma, really, no such thing as a bad Corvette, absolutely. Being down low with a massive engine in front and with World Class handling and braking, at least in the GenII C5, now if I could only afford a 2005+ C6 . . .

I apoligize for not being aware of the most appropriate use of "horrified", but when I say I'm this close to having guys come to my house with torches, pitchforks and axes to take away my keys, you would think I accosted someones family member with the pic, ha!
Indeed. I am a big fan of the "Stingrays". I owned a 63 split window coupe. 327, 300hp. Numbers matched. I sold it for $10K in 77. And I thought I did good. HA! Worth around 10 times that now.

Interesting to note that the 327, 365HP fuelie in a manual fuel injection as they didn't have the digital back them. I'll tell you that chirped the tires in all 4 gears and I wasn't really on it at all. What I really want to drive is a 427, 425HP big Block. has to be unreal.

No boat, back in the suds.
