First Vette
Just joined here today after my first Vette finally arrived from Hew Hampshire late last week and I got to play with her a bit over the weekend.

Found a few issues such as the broken feed from the starter to the fuse box preventing me starting her and killing all electrical systems but the lights. But the frame and birdcage are solid and the engine sounds and looks strong.
Can wait to get here registered and on the road.
