Default Passed Inspection Today!

I've had my 76 L82 4spd for a little over a month now. When I went to get it inspected a few weeks ago there were several things I needed to take care of in order to pass. This site and all of you have been real helpful. There is no way I could have done it without the information I found here!

So far I've installed new front calipers, repaired the emergency brake (drilling out the rivets on the rotors was fun!), fixed the horn, installed new weather strip, replaced the switch for the reverse lights.

Next up will be gutting the interior and installing all the new parts I purchased from Willcox. I'm also going to need to replace the front bumper at some point so I can loose the bra.

I'm having a blast and enjoying the Corvette as much or maybe even more than the Pontiac right now.
