another newbie
Hello everyone,I'm proud to say that after 20 years of buying and selling chevelles and camaro's I've finally bought my first corvette.The car is an 88 black with grey interior and was garage stored its whole life by an oler gentleman who managed to only rack up 60k on it.It is in superb condition.I had the joy of being in a new c4 on a summer night of 1984 blasting down the highway at top speed with the top off and thinking someday i'm gonna get me one of these.Well someday finally came and cant wait for spring.Until then i will be reading up here on tips and tricks to keep this baby in fine shape.Happy motoring!Mike
