Hello, crossdecking from boats to cars. Start off with got a 90 black over red 6speed with no rpo code sticker.
Need interior color code but it can wait until front to back fluid change, tires and brakes. If chevy gets me right syncromesh and the delivery company brings my quick jacks i can get going, other than that how you doin ?

Welcome and let me know which quickjacks model you went with, I see they are on sale this month. For the RPO, you can get a window sticker and build sheet from the National Corvette Museum. https://www.corvettemuseum.org/libra...ers/#blackbook

Thanks everybody, i'll get a few pictures tomorrow.
On the quick jacks i got the 5000 tl ac110 which hopefully stands for 110 ac current.

today the shipping company is claimimg they're lost, so a call to home depot got paypal reimbursed and another set was ordered. Home depot honored the sale price 1450.00 and the superviser knocked off another 53.50 for a grand total including tax of 1498.00 and are due to arrive feb 27. Whoever included the link for the rpo code, thanks, already got it opened up.

Here it is as requested. Needs a very deep cleaning a handful of interior pieces (what red is it?) Also came with a box of weatherstripping some of which is installed, also came with dash light back panel and the left/right gauges, only thing that i see doesn't read is oil temp. I've only put 15 miles on it and only noticed that i think all the center info idiot light part lights up on start up.
right now just focusec on fluids tires and brakes. The quick jacks are (lost) (that's stolen in my book) but home depot cancelled refunded, honored the sale price and knocked off another 53.50 supposed to be here feb 27. Chevy can't get 5w30 syncromesh, tomorrow i'll run up and get that refunded so i guess it's aftermarket time

Off to a slow start but it'll come together soon enough.

tried to cover up the guys name i bought the car from, but the dash receipt is 1-23-23. This was the only corvette in the half dozen looked at that was titled and plated in the sellers name and in the listing he left out the beloved car slept at the foot of the bed adorned with gifts and showered with love since new b.s. everyone else was claiming.
