First Vette
Greetings everyone! At age 59 I've bought my first corvette, a 1994. It's been one of my favorite cars since they first came out.
I really like the car but it's been sucking the bottom out of my wallet so I'm going to post a question in the tech section when I get through here. Anyway, I'm looking forward to learning and sharing what I know.
I've owned a number of sports cars in my life but the corvette is in a class all it's own!

Welcome to the forum. Hopefully you get the car fixed without too much more expense.
I had a black rose '94 coupe - once you get it all sorted out, the car will be a lot of fun to drive.
