Herron Michigan
Hello all. I live in Herron Michigan and I recently acquired a 1963 corvette convertible hard top. Restoration was started but needs to be finished. I am going to attempt to do as much as I can myself. I am in the process of trying to determine what parts I have and what parts I need to acquire. Going to be a learning process I sure. I came across this forum when I was doing some web searches and thought it would be great to join and get ideas and information and share my journey thanks.
