Hey everyone
just saw this forum and it seemed like a good place to join
anyway i'm 18, freshmen in college and my dad just recently gave me his '88 vette.
now i'm not gonna lie, i don't really know to much about cars so i might be a little slow with some things.
here's a pic of it:

Welcome to the forum and to being a new Vette owner.

BTW, you can never be slow if you own a Vette.

Welcome Nice Vette. Now about the C5 emblem as long as you like it that's all that counts.
