:iagree: You will have fun. You will swear at her soon. You will get a picture of her up.
:iagree: :iagree: With a good shop manual if you know squat about fixing cars.
The Chilton's manual will be able to guide you through an oil change or jacking the car up, but you will soon read something like:
"Remove steering linkage, replace as reverse of removal." :confused: :mad :confused: :smash: :rolleyes:
It can drive you to drink heavily. :cheers:

Of course, you are currently reading the most comprehensive and dynamic
manual you will ever open - corvetteforum !!

Welcome, good luck, and :seeya
