Vette(s): 1970 stingray, t-top, mulsanne blue with black interior, 406 ci with 444 hp, racing suspension, hooker headers/sidepipes - SOLD :(

time to bring this post back I think.  I call the Stingray 'Noel', because I found her in early December, and solidified the purchase over Christmas.  Her theme song?  Beach Boys - Shut Down.

declining numbers at an even rate...at the count of one we both accelerate...my stingray is light, the slicks are startin to spin, but the 413's really diggin in...

the superstock dodge is windin out in low, but my fuel-injected stingray's really startin to go...

you can guess how it ends

now I just gotta pick up some aftermarket EFI and I'll be set.

My old Stingray...sure do miss it:

Vette(s): 1981 all original unrestored C3.

Hey Eddie loved your video......

I named my Vette after me, all my friends call me either "Miss T" of "T"

I also run a lot of the local 5k and 10K races, hence runner, also my Vette is a Silver Misty color, so came the name "MistyRunner"

I drive my Vette to most of the local races, and everyone loves it!

Hey, anyone want to get up early and do 3-6 miles when we're in Tenn??

Song: Born to Be Wild!

Motto: Its not the years in your life, but the life in your years that count!

You all have a nice weekend, I will be at the beach, it's going to be in the 80's this weekend...

Vette(s): 1969 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Just bought it from my uncle who owned it since 1971. Fathom green, green interior. 350/300, T400.

I don't have a name for mine yet (called it a few things when I was trying to get the trailing arm bolts out though).

Definately a couple songs though: "Renegade" by Styx and "Ride Like the Wind" by Christopher Cross.
