Sort of like you , my older brother is a long time vette lover.
He has an 05 Vette on order now & I can't wait to drive it, he has had others that I have driven 1977 Vette, 1979 Indy Pace Car Vette, 1985 Vette, 1993 Vette, 1999 Vette, & 2000 Vette which is being traded in for the 2005 Vette.
Some of my past sport vehicles have been 1971 SS Chevelle, 1969 Olds 442,1966 SS Chevelle, , 1979 Ponitac 6.6 Formula Firebird & a couple of F-150's & one 84 Silverado Pick up.
I love my Stang though, been having work done on it here & there.

There's a nice looking camino down the street from me for sale. If I didnt already have a project, I'd probably pick it up.

Thought about it several times, but I know if I get one then I'll end up pushing the Belvedere back even further, and I really want to get it finished. Besides there's a chance I might be able to get a '78/79 cheap/free soon. I don't really care for that body with single headlights, but I'll hang on to it, and Dad and I just might make a Grand National Camino cloan out of it...

Otherwise I will for sure pick up another '71 when the Belvedere is on the road.

1967 belvidere.... very nice. you're right.... too many project vehicles and none of them get done. also, expenses add up quick. my camino is pretty much done. need to do a few things each year. lookin at rear shocks this winter. repaired exhaust manifolds and replace U-joints next spring. eventually i gotta drop the gas tank to clean it out and get a new sender unit. but that's about it. i was toying with the idea of getting a 71-72 plymouth duster with a 340. i don't know. i don't have any room to put it. and when would i drive it.... anyways.

nice 67 - see ya - oaw

Nice Vette. '97 to '99. Which year?

Dad has a low mileage/lots of goodies '87 Grand National (pix in my gallery), '76 El Camino, '77 El Camino and a '66 Charger that needs a lot of work.

Oh! You suck! It's like my car, only faster...

Seriously though, nice Stang! Is yours a 5-spd also? I didn't see in there anywhere. I really want to supercharge mine (among other things), but again, trying to stay on focus, and get the Belvedere done...

The GN is for sale if you really want one. I'd like him to keep it, but too many projects, and he's really into older cars...

Well, it took a while but here is a coworker's F430 Ferrari. Cost: $260,000. The pewter 98 Corvette is mine and the blue 82 is another coworker's. The stars aligned just right last Friday so I could take these pics in our parking lot.
