Thanks Again Brian....(oh that was my godson)

I am sure she will be fine...

I just kept going into the garage looking at her smiling...I have always wanted one of these cars...this is awesome... Now to up my knowledge!

Thankfully Brian included the A.I.M(on disc and on paper)...a 1981 Corvette Shop Manual, A Repair Guide, and a Corvette Restoration Book..time to get reading
