Default from Oklahoma

I have been watching this site for around 3 years now but haven't owned an ls1 until now

my dad has had 9 corvettes and he just sold an 02 and is looking for another vette

I just bought a 2001 ws6, 40k miles, white, taupe interior, m6 (I am working on pics)

but I have had 11 cars so far, everything from bagged to 4x4...mostly into minitrucks until the last year and a half I have been into vw's have had three (still have 1 as a daily driver)

I am a car show nut so if you plan on hitting any shows in Oklahoma let me know and I can meet you there
