Quick intro from Caledon

[Joe95Polo]

Just a quick intro to everyone. I'm from Caledon, ON, long time Corvette fan, since the first C4's came out and I was in my teens. I've never made time for the forums, too busy with other stuff in life....(excuses, excuses). I have a 1995 C4 6-speed, and 2016 C7 Z51 7 speed. The 1995 was purchased used from WN in Richmond Hill (Tyrone Hollbroke) back in the late 90's, and the 2016 purchased new from NewRoads Newmarket.

The 1995 is a 6 speed, FE1 car, has been lowered 0,75 in front, 1.5 in rear, full suspension rebuild a few years back will all poly bushings, and Z51 shocks, and Gord Killebrew frame brace, running 19x10 all around C6 wheels (HRM 25mm spacers) on Hankook RS3s. Very fun and grippy street car, and it's been well used (205kms), still running original Opti (yes, its true). It could use paint, and seats (in progress) need to be re-done. I will probably move to a front coil-over set-up at some point, and debating to swap out the 19x10's for something aftermarket.

The 2016 is a 3LT Z51 7speed, no mods except lowered on factory bolts.

Looking moving into a C8, but don't want to give up the manuals. Just need to convince the wife that having three Vettes is rational (my boys agree.......)

Thanks for listening.

Thanks,

Joe95Polo

Welcome Joe. Nice looking Vettes. Another one in the stable would definitely look good too.

Its simple Joe, just tell your wife "all the guys in the Forum said I should get a C8"

Thanks Dave, I'll deliver it something like "....received professional advice that investing in a C8 is prudent and sensible....."
