Hello from Akron, Ohio
Hello All,
I am an avid car enthusiast and my dream car since has always been a Corvette C2. I am hoping to get educated and gain a better knowledge on how to buy a C2...What to look for and the right questions to ask.
I am looking forward to learning from other members and hopefully find the right C2.
Best,
Dale

Welcome to the forum and good luck in your quest for a C2. You might want to visit the C1/C2 sections of the forum for some helpful information on that generation of Corvette.

Welcome aboard from Columbus, Ohio. Be careful, be patient in your hunt for a C2. These cars are 50 years old and many have issues, some very serious. Sellers use misleading terms and often rely on misinformation from the past. It took me 3 years to find my dream midyear having passed many. Above all, get an expert to inspect the car before you buy. You are some what lucky because one of the best lives nearby. Good luck.
