Hello from NC

Hello guys. I am a new Corvette owner. I grew up with GTOs, but always wanted a 64 convertible Corvette. I just purchased one and love it. I hope to learn from the guys on the forum. Jeff

Thanks guys. I have only had it out a few times. Drove it a couple of hundred miles up in Hampton Roads VA. I remembered what drum brakes feel like while driving up there.

Cool. My first car was a 68 convertible. I purchased a 67 hardtop hood tach goat in 1990 when I was stationed in Virginia. I restored it to original. Took three years. I swore I would never do it again. I bought a 70 with a 455. Slowest of the bunch.
