Vette(s): 1985 Corvette Coupe
My name is Marty Hull a forty three year old kid. The year I turned sixteen the local chevy dealer had a b lack 85 corvette with red interior and manual trans. I visited it every chance I had. total stawking. I loved that car. One of the salesmen was a friend of the family. so I would sit in it and dream of driving it at Indy. or just driving around town. I wanted that car so bad. but it didn't happen. evrytime I thought I might have enough to maybe buy one , heard it isn't practical and too fast.grew older and had kids. so it was again impractical could'nt tote the kids. when I found this car sitting under a tree justoff the highway I had to stop and check it out. It didn't run and had been sitting for awhile. but fell in love with it at first sight. don't know just had to have. Surely someone knows what I mean. So I bought her pretty cheap. put fresh oil, plugs, cap,rotor wires, cleaned out the gas tank fresh gas battery and drove it home. I don't have a lot of money to just frame up her. but do little things at a time. she hasn't made my life easy fix something something else broke. It will take me probably a long time but I couldn't just let her rot by the side of the road. When I'm done she will be my dream car. but I love this car and will pass her on to one of my kids when im gone. She deserves to be fixed and drivin. I can know say yhat I am a Corvette owner  and that is so awsome.

Only a bunch of nut cases run around in C4 Corvettes.....I don't understand the attraction at all. Big smile




If it isn't broke, I haven't fixed it yet....
