Default Got my first vette

Bought a 2001 Corvette the other day after having WS6 Trans Ams my whole life so thought I would join this forum. Been on Ls1tech for years now but it's mainly f-body cars.

Blue and tan. Want to swap to black but interior stuff is pretty expensive for these cars. I would trade plus cash for someone's black interior haha. Picture of the car when I bought it and below it is the car today. Thanks to the forum got f45 deleted and bought z06 from a guy here that should be here tomm! This forum has helped me diagnose a lot of my problems! Got 4 problems left to fix or in the process haha. Love the car tho!
