Default Finally, I am back!!

Hey Guys, i just got back from picking up my Vette, man it is nice to have one again. It is an 87' 4+3 Coupe I bought from a forum member in Houston, car was a great deal-has several gremlins I need to work out with power locks, hatch release,antenna and some water leaks but the car is very stout and runs great, has new paint and wheels to boot, also if anyone has any charcoal interior parts let me know, im going to replace most everything
Great to be back
Ben

Bought my 87 in Houston also. Look for signs of corrosion from the salt air. Could be the cause of some of your problems. Welcome back to the addiction! :seeya
