I would love to have a 6 speed in my truck. If I only had the money

Wheels and tires look good.
You have 2 very nice vehicles, your living a dream

Spend the money when you got it or it will just dwindle away on petty things. Keep it up!

Thanks Eddie....I would have to respectfully disagree on the living a dream thing. This car is more or less a "personal healing" type thing for me.

well....if i had an additional 10-15k laying around ..and several hundred more on insurance per year and also have no back seats and also pay 4x more on the mods for the car. I would have bought a vette too. Not to mention.... car to car... stock to stock or modded to equal modded.... I can out drive anyone in a Vette 99 times out of a 100 in an F-body.

Lets just put it this way. I would be pretty happy if I had your truck and car. They are both very nice. I hope one day I can have my truck fixed up the way I want it and a car as nice as that.

Hmm..crazy Dave! This vette is actually my dream vette, I've been wanting this EXACT car, all my life. Ever since I can remember, I wanted a black 87 Corvette with Z52 suspension...when I went to look at this vette, the guy who owned it was a MOFO to get ahold of...and when I finally did, and he said it was a Z52..I said "SOLD!"

Hmmmm. I will put myself in the elite 1% then.

I can say that I am sure glad I waited till now to buy one. This has to be best vette I have ever driven in my life. Albeit is a little wallowy at high speeds on uneven curvy back roads, but below 100 is is like you are going 55. Nothing a spring change won't help. If I was any younger I don't think I would have survied my youth. <grin> I left out of Church this Sunday fishtailing it across the highway

BTW, here is a pic of mine for those that haven't seen her

Slick Car trixter! do you not have the SS wing on it or does it not show in that pic due to the angle?

I think it is the angle. If you look to the right of the b-pillar you can see the "lip" from the spoiler.
