My First Vette
I'm the proud owner of a 2008 Base 3LT. I've never owner a car that makes me smile so much!
My bother found it (he has a '69 convertible). It has 26000 miles in near perfect condition.
I've been reading and learning a lot from the posts on this forum. I'm sure I'll be posting some questions of my own.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the purchase.
I had difficulty viewing the pictures, can you post so that we don't need to sign into drop box?
Good luck with your Corvette.
