Hi All, I signed on 9/15/04. Bought my first Corvette, a 1977 T-Topper, in late spring. It has new black paint, destroyed interior, runs very good (automatic). I drove it home. So far so good. I stripped the tan interior, removed all the trim pieces, cleaned all & repainted black. But you know, that guy you keep talking about (Bubba), he must have owned every Corvette built. It seems he has left his mark some place everywhere he's gone. Anyway, I have learned more about this car reading your posts than in any books I have bought so far. I thank you Corvette Forum and you all, for your time and effort. My Corvette is a weekend fixer and I am loving every moment of it, so far. Thanks again. Jimydc

Welcome Jimy. Why don't you consider adding at least the state where you live to your profile. This way you could possibly hook-up to other forum members in your area.
At least you made your initial "drive home" without incident. I wasn't as lucky.
