New Corvette owner
I just got my first Corvette today! It is a 1979 red coupe with 22,000 original miles! I am super stoked to find this car - unmolested for 35 years.

Love the car and the base model 195 HP 350, is not bad for being original engine, but the turbo 350 3 speed turns 3000 at 70 MPH so I have to get an overdrive transmission. My buddy is talking LS2/4L60E...
