I owned a 68 firebird convertible and a new 81 Camaro in my 20s. Fast forward 30 years 3 sons and a great wife and I retired at 56 and treated myself to a lemans blue z51 05 corvette coupe with a 6 speed. Never lost my love of cars.
Sweet!
The algo’s fed me this episode of your channel and I really enjoyed it. Like you, I found cars in my teens, but moved from Camaros to of all things MGB’s because of their handling through the corners. Drive my first one in college from 77-81 and stored it until 2 years ago. Like you I was always into photography and film in high school and took a film class as an elective in my engineering program which lead to a couple of animated films. Retirement has allowed me to get back to both of those passions as I restore my MGB and chronical it on my TH-cam channel MaggiesMakeover. I recently purchased another one to drive as I restore the first one. I did get back to muscle cars two years ago when I purchased a 2023 HTC Corvette which I LOVE. Kind of feels like we are living parallel lives my friend!
Awesome, my friend! Love the enthusiasm around cars from all makes and models. You gotta subscriber in me :-) be sure to catch Episode 2 about the 2023 HTC, it just happens to be my nephew's car. Is that a Cobra I see sitting behind the MGB??
@@FullyVetted thanks…..just subsc ones to your channel and will definitely check out the the 2023 HTC episode. That is (was) indeed a Cobra! I am on an endurance racing team and am renting a space in the garage to restore my MGB. The Conra is owned by a teammate. It’s such an amazing car to drive…..feels like your strapped right on top of a big block engine! The owner recently sold it and out the money towards a boat of all things.

Just watched it and thanks for sharing. Always love to hear about C8s and how their owners approach owning them. When I bought mine, a friend put this video showed together about the car.

What a great episode Karl and Kevin! And look at you skinny-minny Karl! You are looking as good as your Corvette-if not better! Love you my friend, forever!❤❤❤
I graduated in '87... Three years later I saw a Corvette on a small lot fell in love right then & there. Begged my dad for days to lend me the other half of money I needed, obviously he knew better not to. Loved Vetts every since! Btw.. It was an all original Silver '63 Spit-window,red interior. $7700.00 Not many regrets in life but thats definitely one🙏
Once they're in your blood, you're hooked! Thanks for sharing :-)
How does the Corvette run and any major problem with them? Especially the crossfire fuel injection!
Both cars run great. Never had any problems with the CrossFire.
I was born in 73 and growing up my uncle had a red 77 Corvette with the "sugar scoop" rear window. I remember being probably 10 or 12 and when he stopped by I would sit in it for hours out in the driveway. When the C4 came out, as a kid I remember thinking it was the coolest car on the planet. I had Corvette posters all over my bedroom walls. The digital dash gave me Knight Rider vibes. Sadly I never did have a Corvette until this year. I bought a 2003 C5 Z06 a month ago. I was looking at C6's and a friend mentioned he had a low mileage C5 for sale. (I loves me some pop-ups!) :) . When I drove this car it just "hit" different. This Z06 is on another level. The next day I bought it. Ill never sell this car. Now I am in the market for another one, a C3. My wife's favorite car is a 78 Corvette. Hopefully I can find her one in a manual. I have a feeling I started something here and I think I am going to need a much larger garage.
I enjoyed your video and your story, Karl. Liked and subbed
👍
Awesome! Thanks for sharing your story! That's what this channel is all about. Who knows, maybe someday I'll interview you for an episode! 👍
great story!
For those who maybe don’t get the appeal, go drive one. Then you’ll get it!
I borrowed my buddy’s 06 Vette for the weekend . Took it to an outside mall, and the amount of women that were checking me out was crazy. 😂 he had a personalized license plate that read gtsmvete 🤣
yup nailed it
Once bitten, forever smitten!
Are you going make a video of modifying the crossfire manifold!, swapping cylinder heads and cam?
We'll see when the time comes!
One of the best Corvettes I ever owned was a triple black 81 that had been made into a convertible. I rebuilt the engine into a 355 with speed parts. It would get a lot of attention at show and shine events. I sold it at a Bloomington Gold Mecum auction several years ago and still regret letting it go.
Oh man! There are too many of those kinds of stories. I have a couple!
Wrong corvettes can rust especially at the birdcage
This is true.
I love mine too
Don't we all! It's a sickness that I don't want a cure from!
