Default Finally got one

Just wanted to say hello. I've wanted a Corvette for the last 35 years or so. I finally got a 1978 model. Great mechanically, but needs some interior work. I look forward to reading these forums.

Hi:[sm=hiya.gif] That is so exciting. Oldman, I'm an old woman and I've been driving Vettes for about the last 35 years, plan to drive them to my grave. Its like you are in your private parade driving these babies. Yes, the folks here are really sharp, all I admit to knowing is where the gas pedal, and the radio **** is on my car. Join in the fun.

Welcome. There's lots of good stuff to see here in the forums and lots of 'vette knowledgeable members. Enjoy.

I know what it's like to wait. I finally got my first 'vette this summer. I've been craving one for many years.
