Default Hello From Southern California

Hello All,
I joined the forum for future tech support and overall knowledge of Corvettes. I bought my first Corvette last summer. It is a 1968 British Green, Standard Interior 327/350hp, 4 Speed. It is a work in progress...meaning it's primer white and the interior is out. I plan on making it pretty much stock. I am 41 years old and have always loved muscle cars. I have owned Trans Ams, Mustangs, and a Camaro so figure I would try something new. I am in the Marines stationed in Southern Calif but originally from South Dakota. Joel

Welcome to the Corvette Forum. Originally from SD, I'm a few miles north in Saskatchewan.

“You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension. A dimension of sound. A dimension of sight. A dimension of Mind. You are moving into a land of both shadow and substance; a journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination of things and ideas. That's the signpost up ahead - your next stop... The Corvette Zone.”
