Vette(s): 2004 Commemorative Edition Coupe, Auto w/HUD. 13K miles in 2015. Sold 1982 Red Coupe
Is it good to have a low VIN or a high VIN?
I would think that later in the production run would mean less problems and more improvements.
What has your parents' experience been over those 80K miles?

Vette(s): ===================
 Thanks, for the warm welcome fellow sharksters! I have loved Vettes since I saw one when I was 5 years old!! Clap I'm 40 now.  When my parents gave me this one, after the newness wore off for them?? and they stopped driving the car in, 1982? (at, 80,000 mi.on the odometer.) Confused   ( puchased in late '79 from 1st. owner).(production date 10/30/78) Confused  Cry  I have been restoring the car in the waiting period! since 1982! a little at a time, I work for, Sony Digital Audio Disc Corp. making those cool things we all love to listen to,cd's\watch,dvd's\ and play, playstation games.  Have been since,'85,( wooooh, 20yrs.),(where did the time go?) I work a, 4 on-4 off 12hr. rotation so I only have the 4 days off to spend on projects for her, real bummer!!, I love her soooo!!  (recieved the car and title in 2000!) Clap  LOL I guess it's true that, good things and CORVETTES come to those who wait! Embarrassed In my case, to long!! And a lot of repairs , replaced parts and a lot of money later, (Thanks Eckler's!,) those guys are great!! (mostly,due to the fact that it just sat in the garage, un-touched and un-driven for a little over a year!)(better than out-side, I guess!!)???? Myself being the Corvette nut that I am, could not let this sweet car get ruined due to neglect!!! (LIKE THAT STUPID,PETER MAX FREAK)!!! that just let all of those beautiful Vettes ( one from each year '53-'89 ) ruin in a parking garage in New York???? I don't even want to get started on that issue!! LOL Some people just don't know what a blessing it is to have these cars!!! LOL These cars are awesome, (Thanks, Zora Duntov!!)and that's why this one will not be a statistic!!!  It's only money and ya can't take it with ya!! Wish we could take our Vettes though!!!! Hmmmm, I'll have to pray about that one!!!!! Big smile Anyway,Thanks Again guys and (gals),(gals on a Vette registry, How cool is that)!!!!!?  Your fellow Vette fan! LOL LOL                  Joe Chaney '79 Vette #10645 1979 c3 owner #10645 197938707.0180208333
