I just picked it up. Runs great, needs a couple of things. I am going to find a nice place to take pictures soon, I need to get things in my name...registeration, license plate, etc.

I need to take care of a few maintenance things also. The car is really in good shape, but needs a few tender loving care items to be where I want it.

The radio/dvd/nav system in it rocks and has got to be worth at least $1500 and that really means that the car was truly a steal. My son and I rocked all the way home in it tonight.

Feels great to be behind the wheel of a VETTE again!

Good luck and welcome back. I'd not waste my time replacing the "blinker switch". Buy Richards bi-pass cable for about $60 and 20 minutes to install and you're turn signal problems are GONE!
