Default New C4 Owner

Hi all,
I’m new to Corvette ownership. I bought my first Corvette in November of 2019. It’s a one owner, 32,000 mile, all original 1984 C4. It was my dream car when I was 16 years old. I even had the huge poster on my wall, and everything. Lol. My Vette has a two-tone bronze exterior with bronze cloth sport bucket seats. It’s in excellent condition for being 36 years old. The plastic on the interior doesn’t even have one crack in it. The carpet isn’t faded either. The engine compartment is very clean with no rust, and the exhaust is still original. I know, cross-fire sucks, but I love it anyway. It’s a blast to drive. I plan on keeping it original. The only thing I’ve done on it was replace all the weatherstripping. I wish I wouldn’t have though. Looking back, I think it was still good. Now I’ve got sealing issues. I’ll have to figure that out in the spring. Anyway, that’s all for now. I hope to make a few good friends on here, and maybe learn some stuff. Take care.
