New User saying Hello
Hello, I am new to this corvette forum and would like to explore it more.
Well I am 16 years old and for my birthday I got a black LT1 1994 corvette with a custom C5 body kit.
It has a transparent roof and a custom trunk with a little over 60K miles on it.
The bad part is that it has bad weather stripping and a salvage title
.
But all in all, this car has been good to me and runs fairly well.

A corvette for the birthday , lucky guy.
Congrats on your Vette. Have fun with it
Nice and clean , the wheels , the hood and headlights are good. But I'm not a fan of C5 bumpers on a C4, it looks good though.

With a car like that, you're going to be tempted quite regularly to "show off a bit", and that's going to be hard to resist. However, if you do resist, (and I hope you do), you'll get more respect from your friends, less tickets, the girls will think you're cooler, you won't be as likely to wreck your car, and you'll live.
Have fun with it, but be aware that 300 HP can get you bent out of shape in a hurry.
