79' C3 in Riverview, Fl
I recently became the owner of a 79' C3 via project car swap. I found the forum while trying to figure out how to get the spare tire lock off as the key was not working on the lock. This is my 1st Chevy and 1st project car technically since I didn't dig into the 2010 M6 I had hoped to work on. My family seems much more excited about this Corvette than the Beemer. A quick word of thanks for all the folks that have contributed to the wealth of knowledge found on here, Thank You!

There is no shortage of shows, especially this time of the year. https://flacarshows.com/ is a good resource. I try to get to the Shake Station show in Ellenton as well as a couple of others.
