Newbie
Thanks for adding me. I’m in western North Carolina. I got my first Corvette (1976 c3) as a young man in the early eighties. Fast forward a few years (lol) and I’m retired and looking for my second one. I’ve been looking for months and have it down to two (both 1978’s). I’ve gained a lot of knowledge reading posts on this forum. Hopefully I’ll have my Corvette soon!

Thank you
Thanks for the welcomes and hospitality. Hopefully all will go well with the ‘78 I’m working on and I’ll be able to come back with a picture!
