Default Another New Guy

Hey everyone, just found this place,it's great. For the record I have a Torch Red 1971 with a 454, 400 Turbo, and too many extras to list right now.It's basically been rebuilt from the ground up by myself and the help of a lot of good friends, but then again Corvettes are never really done, I'm already thinking about what to do next, that's how I found this place.I guess I'm going go look around now.
