First time to post and the first thing I have to say is Thanx for all the knowledge from all that post here, my wife has her facebook and I have this awesome vette forum.
My car is a 71 that is a work in progress and this forum will be a huge advantage and help to me. Thanx again.

Thanks Dahogan.. I think I made a good deal on the old girl. I'm the 5th owner, the 3rd owner passed away in the middle of an on the frame restoration and the 4th owner owned it less than a year and thru it back together so I'm chasing a few small gremlins but I am very proud to own it. I have already solved a couple of issues with it on this forum so thanx again to all the knowledgeable vette guys and girls here.
