Hi members of Corvette Forum.
I live in Norway and have just bought my first Corvette 7 month`s ago
it is a 65 Coupe 327/300hp automatic, silver paint and black interior. I have had many nice amercan cars before this one, but this will be a keeper. Just love the body shape and the fun of driving it. Best regards Frank

Welcome to the Forum, Frank, and congratulations on your nice C2!
Are there many other C1 or C2 Corvettes in Norway?

Thanks for that information, Frank. There are more C2s in Norway than I would have imagined. That should give all the C2 “caretakers” a good data bank for info on fixes that might be needed from time to time. And, of course, there are lots of great members and helpful information in the C2 sections of the Forum, too!
