2024 C5of the Year Finalist - Unmodified
New guy!
Hello all. Recently I was the recipient of my moms car, a C5 auto coupe. Box stock with 110,000 miles, Florida car always garage kept. My dad was an Engineer on the Corvette program in the 90's, he ordered it new in 2000 for my mom when they retired from GM. It has been very well maintained but does have the typical problems (EBCM, that should be fun...) I have been wrenching all my life so it should be a fun project to go along with my vintage Harley dragbike and trail running Jeep, both of which keep my very busy with the wrenches, I am sure the C5 will be the same. I look forward to conversing with you all!
