Hi everyone! I finally managed to swing my first vette into my life and was lucky to purchase an 85 with less than 11K miles on it from a retired Corvette Chassis engineer. I was originally looking at late model C4s but came across this beauty and never looked back.

The wife doesn't get it (cars are not for simply having fun!) but she will eventually as I drag her along for the rides...

I've been lurking on this site up until I bought my new toy, and I'm looking forward to learning how to make it even better with all of your help!
