Default Just picked up a 72 Convert from Forum member....

Hello and Happy Tuesday to Forum members.....My live long obsession continues as I was able to buy a 72 convertible this past Sat from a forum member here....Great driving car that has been adult maintained and garaged. Looks great but needs paint and body restoration for sure. This makes the 9th corvette I've owned and looking forward to wrenching on it.....Love the fantastic archives and detailed threads ansd info here...It is still listed with pics on the C3 for sale Board for review.....Look forward to following the contined repair and love of these great cars.....

Respectfully
Deane

Thanks again Guys.....I'm surprised I was able to get it.....I'm usually a just missed it guy Forum member 72Vert let me have for 15k and he gave a garage full of OEM GM parts including bumpers door panels front grills starter small block hood rocker kits water pump exhaust tips factory side mirrors seat covers manuals new clock tools and some of them new.....The car needs paint but Glenn rebuild all the steering components and suspension as well as VBP adjustable rear....Drove home 1.5 hours and it drove incredibly well....Love the color tag reads targa Blue but does not look it....not sure when I'm going to get into the paint process with it..May drive it this summer then plan
