Welcome! :chevy:

Welcome. The c4's are fun machines for sure. It's nice to see that you get your hands dirty. You really enjoy the car that much more when you can say you've done work yourself. :thumbsup:

I'm sure I could swing the payments in about 5 years, I'll keep you all updated.

ParisTNDude 03-03-2012 09:44 PM

Yep, you'll find plenty of positive feedback by the Chevy fans on this site over almost any car with the bow tie on it....especially Vettes since they have always shared some of the same components. I've had 3 Vettes myself and just sold my 84...very nice cars. I'll have another some day.

GTAHVIT 03-03-2012 09:47 PM

Nicely done man!

:respekt:
