Greetings and thank you Adam for giving me a chance at this,
I hope we can generate some extra traffic here as it has been a bit slow and I for one find great motivation in my own project in the camaraderie that can be found here.
I realize many people are down and out with poor weather which will surely start to clear as we enter spring/summer. |bouncy|

I hope that both fans of the GM Mako show cars and the "Maco" Silva rebody kit will find interest in this section of this great forum as will fans of custom vettes in general.
I have a downright obsessive passion for custom Corvettes, and as we all know the Mako shark 2 started the whole C-3 body style.

I want to extend a welcome to everyone from the proud owner of the perfect show queen to the person with the never ending project (Like myself.) and everyone in between.

Please don't be bashful maybe you owned a Maco years back, perhaps you are building one now or in the market for one or just "looking."
We would love to hear your story and by all means there can never be too many pictures,

So who will be the first to post their story?

Many thanks,
Cheers, T.
|cheers|

Well, here I am. It took a while, as this is my first visit to
this website. I don't know how I missed it! Have not been around it yet, but it looks great! I can post my story, but most of you Mako owners probably have already heard it. How about posting pics ? Is it easy? I am limited on computer skills.
Anyway, good luck Tyla, you will be a good moderator! |cheers|

Welcome to C3VR Randy! |wavey|

Posting images is pretty painless but if you need any help don't be afraid to ask. Anyone will be able to assist.

Best of luck to you Tyla. Let me give you a little tip... to get things going, you're going to have to talk to yourself here daily until things pick up... that's just the way this sort of stuff works.

Thanks for the encouraging words,|thumb|
David you know I don't mind talking to myself in the interest of generating camaraderie of this hobby.
There are a few of us Mako/custom fans still out here that keep the faith,
My hope is every so often a new enthusiast finds there way here and feels welcome.
Cheers, T. |cheers|
