Default New C3 Guy

Hi Everyone,


I'm new to this board so I thought I'd introduce myself. I'm Jon and I have recently purchased a '73 L83 Stingray (T-tops) and am enjoying it immensely. It needs some work but mechanically it's in pretty good shape. I'm looking forward to restoring it as I have time and joining the Corvette community. This is my first Corvette but I'm no stranger to GM products, having owned 9 Novas, a Cutlass, Chevelle, etc., etc. I really enjoy driving them and I can't wait to learn all about Corvettes. I've always wanted one, since I was a kid, and I'm jazzed to finally have one! Anyway, that's my story and I look forward to spending many quality hours on this forum and others.


Cheers!
-Jon
