Hello from Nebraska
My wife and I bought a 1985 corvette to do a full restoration on it. I think it will be a good candidate for it. There are a few issues that I was hoping you guys that have been around a while might be able to help us figure out.

Congrats on your C4 and welcome to the forum. The C4 sections of the forum would be a good place to post any questions you may have about your car.

Thank you all.
Thank you all. We are very excited about the restoration. We are a little nervous about if we picked the right car or not. We have an appointment with the body shop and the alignment shop Monday.
