Default My first Corvette

Hello all,
thank you for providing this great site to enjoy. I live in West Texas and hav a C3. It is a 77 and pretty rough. I would like to update it completely. I bought it from the original owner, who put a crate 350 (goodwrench) in it 4 years ago. It is pretty sound mecanically, but cosmetics are lacking. I saw the C3 on SPIKE TV's Musclecar show yesterday. I was wondering if anyone knows who that belongs to, or more info about it.
thanks,
CJ

1st off, Welcome aboard. 2nd, please check out the C3 section(s) for your best information concerning your Corvette. 3rd, I think they actually film Horsepower TV, Muscle Car, Trucks, and Extreme 4X4 here in Franklin, TN. I have run into the girl from Extreme 4X4 as the gas station and saw Joe Elmore (Horsepower TV) at a local eatery. I bet if you e-mail Muscle Car with your question they will provide an answer. Good luck with your project.
