Default XLRV Guy joining in.....
As per my username, I actually drive a Caddy XLRV, however, I picked up a 1985 Vette in horrid condition, but with an excellent body and wheels. I'm planning on restoring it to its former glory, but trashing the low HP tired motor (105k). Anyhoo...... I will try not to ask too many dumb quesztions, and I appreciate you guys and gals being here to help. Doug
