Default Back from Vacation

I have a 1994 Admiral Blue Coupe with 26K original mile on it. On a club drive to visit someone famous..I can't remember who...my car was struck in the front and suffered some slight hood damage. Parked the car in the garage and it has been there ever since... That was in 2004. Stuck at home like everybody else, I was binge watching some Motor Trend shows (Graveyard Garage and Roadkill Garage). Decided to blow life back into the Vette and finally put her back on the road. Back in the day, I was very much into my car. Have been to the factory and the museum more times than I can remember. But after a 16 year hiatus...I feel like I have just woken up from a coma with regards to this car...So like every other hobby I have....it's off to the internet to find a forum with like minded people who will share their knowledge like I used to do when I actually had some...LOL

I'm new to the forum and in the same boat...parked my '70 Coupe as it was overheating thinking I'll fix it as soon as I got a chance, then next thing I know we are swamped at work, then my first son came along, then another son, etc, etc...now, 24 years later I'm looking to get it back on the road LOL
