Default Hello

Hello everyone. Yesterday I purchased and picked my first Corvette. It is a 1966 427/425hp convertible. It is also the first car I've owned in 25yrs, pickups and jeeps have been more practical.
I've been lurking and learning on this forum for several months. I'd like to thank everyone for their contributions to my early education and I'm looking forward to my future education. Thank you all in advance.
