1980 in Philadelphia
My girlfriends 1980 Corvette has found it's way into my garage. Her father bought it brand new but passed away 10+ years ago. It has been sitting for years.
We want to bring it back to life, but I was curious if there is anyone out there in the Philadelphia area that is willing to take the first look at it? I fairly mechanically inclined but definitely not ready for a full bore restoration. She wants the car to be road worthy, not show quality.
If anyone is local and willing to help me out it would be greatly appreciated. She's a great cook btw-
Thanx-

If I lived in your area, I'd be over in a heartbeat (is that the same as a "New York minute"?). Keep your thread open and give it time for people to respond. I'm sure some Forum folks will answer the call.

Hey Christian,
I'm south west of you, down in York, about 2+ hours away. I'm no pro either just older but not necessarily wiser. I've a 77 that I've managed to keep road worthy for several years mostly through trial, error, bad judgement, good guesses, sheer luck, a couple of manuals and knicked knuckles. I dont get up that way often but I'd be willing to come over on a Saturday or two or three. I just looked at the weather map and its about 30% chance of t-storms this weekend so the baby being alergic to rain doesn't come out. That aside just let me know and I'll go for a ride.

I'm up in the NorthEast section of Philly, across the street from Holy Family University. Marlton is only 20-30 minutes from me.
