Welcome to the Forum!!!!!!!!! Congratulations on your acquisition. Thank you for rescuing an old Vette. Sounds like you're off to the right start for a resto project, getting all the right manuals. Just spend time in C3 General and ask questions as necessary, there are lots of helpful owners there. Best of luck. Enjoy the car and the Forums.
