I just inherited my Uncles 82 Vette. Not exactly how I wanted to become a Vette owner. He bought it brand new, at least it gets to stay in the family) My Wife and I have been trying to get the car for a couple years. he had not driven it much in the recent years. We just hated to see it sitting in the garage. Never the less it will be enjoyed and bring new memories and remind us of the good times with my Uncle. Looking forward to the tips and info from the forum.

Thank you. I have been trolling for a week now. I'm a life long mechanic, but every car has hidden surprises. So the forum will be useful.
