Hi everyone,
My name is Jeff, just traded a motorcycle for a 1979 c3 auto trans Corvette (not sure what the guy was thinking as the bikes blue book was 3-4k (was asking 5500 cause it was cool and he made the deal chasing me). Never thought of myself as a Corvette guy but my wife really liked it and seemed worth it. So we are actually less than 24hr owners. The car has 34k miles, white and I think it is the l82 version. Lots to learn for sure. Anyways a little about me, I live in mid-Michigan area, mostly into bikes/guns(shoot competition) and chickens but this project looks like a good time.
