Wow,

Thanks for the warm welcome back guys. I just love and missed this forum.
I cant wait to get my new toy . Car is in need of a little TLC, The gentleman that owned the car has fallen ill and was unable to stay on top of the car.. Vette is in need of a major cleaning that is number one, Car is filthy... I will post before and after pics once I get it home... This is going to be the nicest car I have ever owned... Took it for a ride couple days ago and she runs perfect and drives awesome.. I just can't wait..

Ant....
