Got my first Corvette today...

I just got my first Corvette today. Its a 1978 L48. Its Black on Black. I got it from a family member for me and my son to mess around with. Its nothing fancy but always wanted a Corvette since I was a kid.

I got the car from my uncle who just bought a new Corvette. This one me and my dad painted 8 years ago. So i know the car pretty well. One of the first things I want to do is change the mufflers. Its to quite....Other than that just drive and enjoy for a while.
