I love to turn a wrench and have a 30x50 shop that is still a work in progress, but a great place to relax after work. I'll have ton of questions with time - I am sure. Thanks for the welcome.

Welcome to the forum! I`m a "first time" `Vette owner too! Wife & I have built several cars over the years, but finally got a 71 coupe to build for our retirement.
I recently learned that when you respond to multiple replies, you can hit the box in the middle, just right of the "quote" button, on all the ones you want to respond to (except the last one), then hit "quote" on the last one, and they`ll all be in the same reply. Cool, huh?

Thanks, man. I didn't want to leave anyone out (replies) and wasn't aware of this feature. Would have saved a ton of typing!

Welcome to the forum! I'm rather partial to Red '72 coupes myself!

Have you registered your car on the C3 registry site? There are quite a few 1972 owners registered on there. It's cool to see where your car / build date compares to others. My car has 1 'brother' on this site with the same build date.

Enjoy!
