i tried to post a pic but can't get the link up any suggestion on how to do it it is a real nice car and would like to share some pic, my old 77 was sold to my sister in 85 had about 17,000 miles or so, she took it as a dailey driver. been going over this car to check all dates i'll need to find some brake calibers they been replace so far everything else looks good, look like some paint been redone but it looks like less than 30% the last owner had her since 1980 and he claims no work been done on her since he had it and said the owner before him never done any body work look like maybe it was redone at the factory or the dealer when the car was new, the right door panel has a small crack in it but all in all it looks very good going to try for bloomington surivor in time

I had the last of the L-82 4spds when new in 79. I loved it. After I had the dealer block sand it and repaint. Their quality control was really bad back then.Still a very under rated vette. I hope you enjoy yours?
