Hi,
Thanks for letting me join. We purchased a 62 Corvette that was taken apart probably 30 years ago by the original owner. He was going to restore it and then decided it was too much work. It sat in a barn in pieces and in boxes . Now it is in pieces and boxes in my garage. We have had the frame dipped and have organized the parts and hopefully we have all of them. Have found some duplicates like two steering wheels and two transmissions.
We are looking forward to tapping into the great minds on this forum as we begin this journey.
PS .. I am the female half of the "we". My husband plans to do the work but I like saying we are doing it because I am the moral support!
