Hi..My name is Nita and I've been put in charge of the care of our 1st corvette; a 2007 Indy Pace Car Replica. We picked it up on Sat, April 12th and by Monday, we were members of the NCM, the Lone Star Corvette Club (we live in Irving, TX) and signed up for our first road trips to Ponca City, OK and the 2009 Caravan. Turns out, there was a lot Jim and I weren't told when picked up the car and the owner's manual is on backorder.
Everyone on this forum has been great in answering my questions, about detailing, protecting the exterior from rock dings, to supplying me with a link to an online owner's manual. Thanks for being so patient with this female newbie. Hope to meet some of you at upcoming events in the surrounding area.

Here's a picture of the car less the pace car graphics. They were removed from the car at the request of the previous buyer, then something happened and he didn't take the car. It only had 28 miles on it when we bought it with the condition that they get the graphics from GM and restore the car to match the window sticker.
