Welcome to the forum, Larry, and congratulations on your first Corvette! Never too "young" to start!
You will find lots of great members and helpful information in the C4 section of the forum at
https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...-1984-1996-19/
Had an '86 for many years and many miles. Ours was very reliable - hope yours treats you well, too.
Enjoy your ride and save the wave!
Cheers, Larry
