Hello from Nokomis
 

Just found out about this Forum this afternoon and joined tonight.

Own a 65' "survivor" Rally Red coupe, purchased from the original owner out of Mid Texas this past November with only 58,000 original miles.

Car is a matching #'s L76 motor, Muncie 4 speed, with 4.11 posi rear end.

The few "mods" I'v'e made (while obviously keeping the original parts) besides radial tires, are Breakerless SE electronic ignition, roller rockers and roller lifters, K & N air filter, performance coil and plug wires. Car runs strong.

I bought it to drive and enjoy it, not hang on a garage wall. I feel it helps keeps these "midyears" alive and well and has become a familar sight in the greater Sarasota area.

I think a Florida Forum is a great idea and look forward to my now third home away from home....:) :)

:welcome: Man, I really love the looks of that model.........

:welcome: & nice car!!!

Thanks guys, it's a friggin' blast to drive.

Welcome Formula Outlaw.I have been lookin hard at your car .And i think i saw your car at the Circle:s show a few years back.Tell me is this your ride. BTW she is a real Beauty:thumbsup:

That's a nice car but it's not mine.

Mine has black interior, horizontal vents, and I just purchased it last November.

I've also got the KO wheels, L76 (327/365) motor. Cars do look quite similar though...:D

I was at the St. Armands Show couple weekends ago and lucky enough to take a trophy...:thumbsup: Mine was the one blasting the Beach Boys out of the car....:D

Good to hear that you took a trophy home :thumbsup: .With that sweet ride it was easy win:thumbsup: .

:welcome: FO. Glad to see another vintage Vette in the stable. Not many on the board yet, but we are still young.

9T8 - FO's ride is a '65, the picture you posted I believe looks like a '64. I know it is sometimes hard to tell those old Corvettes apart when they are painted Red. Both great looking rides! :yesnod:

:wavey: Formula Outlaw, Glad to see you made it, WELCOME!! I'm looking forward to the:
