I would like to thank Tuxblacray for becoming C3VR's newest Lifetime Member!

Larry (Tux), from Greensburg, IN joined C3VR back on 09/24/2003 after hearing about us on a Google search. He is the proud owner of a 1976  Black on Black Stingray and a 2001 Arctic White convertible.

Thanks again for your support by becoming the 139th Lifetime Member of C3VR!!

Who will be the 140th!?!
