Default Hello all

I recently purchased this beautiful 1977 Corvette that still needs a little TLC, mainly the interior. It is driveable and perfectly fine the way it is, but there's always something else that can be beautified. The C3 line has been a childhood dream and 30 years later I was able to find one and purchase it. I am currently in Virginia Beach, VA so if there is anyone with experience working on these things or getting the correct parts let me know.
