Default Hello all!

I'm somewhat new to the forum. Have been lurking for a few months. Bought my first very vette this past summer, nothing fancy, '71 coupe, small block. It was originally brands hatch green with premium saddle interior but was painted red at some point. A driver and 10 footer so fun for sure. I have added seat belts and rebuilt the steering box this summer and now have the rear end completely out for a rebuild. Thanks to this site for helping me thru the disassembly. Now I'm wire wheeling and getting ready for paint. A blast of a project. I told my wife tonight I'm already thinking about my next one!

My youngest son enjoys it too!
