First Corvette 1973
Morning Everyone,
New to the forum & new to corvettes. I recently purchased a 1973 c3 for my elder father and I to enjoy. It’s always been his favorite and he found a garage queen. It’s not perfect but it a fun car and gives me something to learn about. Located in the Florida panhandle

Welcome to the forum. 73’s are a great year and are the only ones with chrome rear bumpers and soft nose 👍👍👍.
