New C3 Owner from San Tan Valley, AZ
Greetings to everyone!
I just picked up a Dark Blue 1980 C3 last weekend and am now part of the Corvette life.
Being a big GM guy, I've come across this forum quite a few times to check out some builds and do some troubleshooting for the Corvettes of friends, but I'm glad to finally have one of my own. The last two cars that I've owned and modded were a 2014 Camaro 1SS and a 2004 GTO, so I'm a bit partial to the LS motors. I'm looking forward to jumping into the community head first to learn and help where I can.

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your C3!
You are much younger looking in your picture than I would have imagined.
