Default Hi from Canada

I'm new to Corvettes and figured I should join a forum and learn as much as I can BEFORE I purchase one. My wife has been a life long Corvette fan while I'm into 2nd generation Trans Ams and have owned lots of them over the years. We are looking to buy a 78 Pace Car or a 79 Red L-82. Thats what she has narrowed her choices down to. I look forward to learning as much as I can and if anybody has any pointers or advice I would love to hear it.
Cheers,
Dave
