Default New member intro

Hello,
I am new to the corvette world, came here for help, guidance and opinions. Im not new to cars, just corvettes.
I bought this from a family member. The car was left to him 10 years ago and has been in storage for ten years. The car has been started a few times over the years and runs and shifts perfect. It has no power steering, all the fluid leaked out when I started it and has no brakes. I will be over hauling both of these areas, to make the car safe. I also would like to add front spoiler and rear wing. I will be purchasing parts for the next few months, then start installing them after the holiday season. My first question is after looking at rear spoilers I have noticed that not all 79 look the same, some have a rear little wing off the rear bumper. I really like the pace car rear spoilers but, this will not work on this car, is there a wing that I can add that will enhance the look, while looking alright with the rear end I have. also why cant I post pics? Thanx Tom
