Me either. Got two awesome running Vettes, and now very excited to bring the monster '08 Z06 back to life. '08 gonna need a fresh wrap, but can't wait to do a photo shoot of all 3, and I may delay that until I take possession of the 2024 Z06.

I've been vetteless for 5+ years.

Took a '19 'Mero for a test drive on Saturday... Priced too high, so it stayed at the stealership.

You need another '09. Might set you back 45-55k, but it's the last of a generation. 7.0L naturally aspirated engine is going to be a unicorn in this electrified era that we now unfortunately live in.

Yes, I would like another '09 Z06. Really want a 427 vert, but they're priced crazy. Prices will never drop on those.

Description on the page you didn't seem to read
"Presenting this 1975 Chevrolet Corvette with T-Tops featured with matching numbers and finished in its factory color Orange Flame (70) combined with a Black interior. This Corvette C3 is equipped with a 4-speed manual transmission, 350ci V8 engine, Quadrajet carburetor, four-wheel disc brakes, concealed headlights, removable T-top roof panels, quadruple tail lights, "Stingray" badging, hood scoop, driver-side rearview mirror, AM/FM radio, sun visors, cigar lighter with an ashtray, BFGoodrich tires, Chevrolet branded hub caps, and a full-size spare tire. A sharp-looking American classic that is an excellent weekend cruiser and is mechanically sound. "

I like how it has a cigar lighter instead of a cigarette lighter

So what was your purpose for posting that when we were discussing a 1983 model?

You were looking at a page that said it was a 75 and yet you still made a guess that it was a 77

They are out there. Unmolested are hard to find. Never understood why people modify the one thing that makes your car special.
