I go my '79 vette wen I was 14 as a gift from my father. That was the driving age back then in New Mexico. Now I got the 79 and 62 but I'm looking for a Yellow C5 convert. Anyone know where I can find one?

Did some work on my car once, and went for a ride afterward, on the road that runs behind our dealership, which is technically our property. Anyways, as I was coming around a corner, completely sideways, a cop was coming around the corner 50 yards down the road, at me.

Not a good moment.

He's soo pissed. HE thought it was a customers car. Wouldn't belive that It was my car, cause I was covered in ****.

Funny now, shitty moment then.
