Subject: RE:I just checked in to see what condition my condition was in by corvetteronw on 2008/2/26 2:33:33 Thanks for the kind words. Feels like home. Right now I am drving a $2,500 Olds Ciera that is paid for and gets 30mpg. I bought it from a couple of guys who had to take the keys away from thier 84 y/o mom whose name was Mable and was getting dangerous on the roads. Quite a come down from my LT4 red vert. But then my grand daughter made me smile. I took her to school one day and when she looked at the logo and name on the dashboard she said, "Oh, Olds Mable!" So here I am scooting around the highways with Old Mable's car. It did make it back and forth to both Corvettes at Carlisle and Mid America's Funfest last year though with no troubles and great gas mileage. What am I thingking of for the next one? I really like some of the C3s as in the 80-82 sharks with a crate motor and 700R4 with steeroids. Some of them that I have seen for sale look quite nice with new paint, suspension and interiors too. I like the ZR1s and the skunks too but then reality sinks in. I cannot afford them. I really like any of the 95 96s as they are the best engineered of the C4 gen. |
