Intro. CA First time corvette owner
Whats up everyone! Just bought my first Corvette last week. 1984 Crossfire. Maybe not one of the most desirable among a lot of people but its the Corvette that i grew up seeing around town and made me fall in love with them! This is definitely a project and picked it up for a steal. It has 41k miles and is going to need a lot of love. So far the biggest problem that i have noticed is that the previous owner thought it would be a good idea to try and fix the blemishes on the cheap paint job with a rattle can.. They also sprayed all of the red interior trim black. The good part is they at least took the pieces out of the car first lol. I have a few questions for that guys have experience working on this model and will be posting it in the right thread. I will definitely try to keep my project updated. Thanks everyone!

Good luck and welcome aboard. I love how so many of us here gravitate towards the Corvette we grew up with and fell in love with at a young age. For me, that’s the early C3’s. Congratulations on making your dream a reality!
