Howdy! Just bought my first Corvette, a 93 C4. It needs motor work, a challenge I'm up for (I think). I'll be leaning on folks here for advice along the way. Here's a pic.

Welcome to both the Corvette Forum and to Corvette ownership. Nice looking C4 that you bought.

I have always liked that color
Looks like a good start
You will find a whole lot on here but it will take some looking
I have a 92 base model myself in black, no more black cars
It only looks good for a couple of days in the summer
I drive year round unless it's snowing
One thing I would recommend if you are spirited driver are Blistine shocks I ran KYB and they work fine until I got use to the car
A little bouncy
Have fun
