I don't have online photo storage and for whatever reason the "posting rules" say I can't post attachments...I have uploaded two pics to the gallery section via "my corvette photos" on the tag line, but they are still in the "approval" process.

Congrats. Sounds like a great ride. You and your wife will have more fun than you can imagine with your "new" C4. Welcome to the forum,

Default Congratulations and Welcome

Congratulations. The '96 model is considered by many to represent the very best in the C4 generation of Corvettes. Enjoy your cool Christmas gift.

Best of luck.
