I just found this site yesterday by accident. I thought I would give it a shot, so here I am. I have an '08 black Z51 coupe, which I bought new. I'm retired since 2010, and I'm a member at smokinvette forums.

Welcome to CAC, and congrats on your recent retirement....you made it.

I still have a ways to go, but at least I am now done with paying for college. My Daughter graduates
next week, so now the wife and I can start putting a little aside for us.

Thanks for all the welcomes. Do I need a certain number of posts before I can show pics? I'm not really sure how to add pictures, so maybe someone can explain. Thanks

When posting to a thread, Click on the "Insert Image" icon (looks like a little picture between the globe and what looks like a film strip.) When the box pops up you can upload your pictures from your computer (From Computer tab) or copy the link from a website like Photobucket and paste the link in the box (From URL tab). Then click OK.

Give it a shot and lets see some good pics.

Thanks again for the greetings. I've been trying to post some pics following the instructions, but I keep getting the "upload failed" message. I will keep trying and see what happens.:confused

Welcome Shattered. The "upload failed" message usually means that the pic size is too large. You might want to consider reducing the file size with something like photoshop or other photo editing programs and re-try. Another quick bet is to sign up for a free account at photobucket.com or vimeo.com and you shouldn't need to reduce the size for them. once you upload your pics to one of them, just copy n' paste the link here. In fact, that would be the easiest and quickiest way. Hope this helps!

I am also new and happen to stumble across this forum while searching for some tips. I just recently purchased a 1987 C4 Coupe/Targa. It is my restoration project, so excuse the pic... It's been sitting in an open yard since 2009 and is begging for restoration and to be driven. The previous owner didn't like it, so it sat since he inheirited from his grandfather's passing in 2009. I had to power wash the twigs, dirt and nasty bugs all over just to drive it. So it is new to me. lol. 135k precious miles but the grandfather took very good care and maint since he bought it new in 1987. It just went down hill since 2009 since the grandson didn't like any sports car. lol. His loss, my gain! Here's pic!
