New to forum...
Hi all, As you can see, this is my first time posting on this forum. I want to wish all of you "Happy New Years!"
I have a 68 427 Vette coupe (lemans blue) with "rally" wheels and a few engine mods, and am anxious to see what's goin' on in the "vette comunity". My current project is to add MSD ignition and re-route the holley fuel pump close to the fuel tank where it belongs.. (This engine is rather "thirsty" and the previous owner put the pump under the hood where it "don't" belong) anyway,,, I've owned my 'vette for about 4 years and after getting most of the "bugs" fixed, am finally getting back to work on "her"!!

Welcome Dave, good to see another member from Sacramento. I have a lemans blue 69 BB coupe, except my lemans blue is the C5/C6 color.
Looking forward to seeing the pictures, and seeing the car around the local events.
