Default First corvette

Hi everyone, Just purchased a 1996 vette with 115,000 miles. I'm a mechanical person and like to do a lot of work myself. However I moved to new hampshire and live in an apartment... Anyone recommend a good place to work on cars around Portsmouth, NH or if anyone would like help or to team up and work on each others corvette please let me know. Sometimes it would be nice to have an extra set of eyes. Thanks, Bryan

P.S. Only been on the forum a couple of days and its great, already know I'm going to be here a lot.

Welcome to the Forum and congrats on your new '96...

I know what you are saying as I live in similar circumstance and must do any mods/repairs in a parking lot. It was "uncomfortable" for a while but I've grown comfortable with living this way now.

Enjoy your C4; this is great weather for cruzin.

Bryan. There is a section of the Forum called Events and Regional. Post your question in the appropriate sub section there and you will end up with some help.
Welcome to the madness!
