Hello everyone, my name is Tim. I am a full time college student, I am studying Radiology. I currently work for the state doing Home Health Care. In my spare time I work as much as I can in the family Business my father started and handed down to me called Gibson High Performnace. I have loved chevys all of my life I really loved Corvettes but never thought I would ever own one(came from a lower middle class family) My grandmother looked at me one day and told me you can do what you want and will have what you want in life. My Grandmother and Step Grandfather always had Corvettes The one that got me in love with them was the 59 Numbers matching with 14k miles when sold brought $200k. My grandmother passed away in late 04 and left me some money for school. I have a full ride to OSU so I decided to take that money and find me a C3. I found a 76 Corvette Stingray L-48 all orgininal numbers matching yellow with a tan/saddle color interior with around 72k miles. Needed Front/Rear bumper and tires. I got the car and replaced them no it needs painted I am working on that now. I will never sell this car. Its being built into a show car in memory of my grand mother. About a week ago I ran a across a 78 Silver Anniversery (painted black with gold stripes) L-82 Nom 350 4 speed car. Its in great shape just needs put back together it has 75k miles on it. I need a set of Ttops for it but other than that I have everything I belive.
thanks for having me guys
