New addition to the 'family'...1977...white with tobacco (brown) interior. It will be a combination birthday and 1977 high school graduation gift to the wife. She wants a new pool so the car might not stick around too long...simply 'killing 2 birds with one stone' with this one...Wink

UPDATE: Presented the car on my wife's birthday, which was Monday, the 25th of April, 2016. Had 7 Corvette friends and a couple of neighbors present to help me pull this off. When the time came, (about 3 pm), the wife was blindfolded and told by the neighbor that her gift to the wife was a 'little bit too heavy" Wink and we should just go over her house to get it. Once at the back of the car, she was told she could pull the blindfold off...bang...the tears start to flow! She had to ask if the car was hers!  LOL  Could not have scripted this any better...it went exactly as I envisioned it! Thumbs Up

Its solid brown...or the official name "Tobacco".
 
Good solid car. Couple of tweaks here and there to be accomplished before the end of the month...rework the drivers' seat and get the AC working again.
