Our first grandchild (girl) was born just over a week ago,so we already were pretty high. And then I found the car. I told my wife that I figured out that the Vette was born 4 days after our son in 78. She just gave me kind of a weird look.Wacko

Good for you Jeff. Your journey is just beginning. Now that you have become an owner, you will realize the true value of this site. I cannot imagine that my car would be in the shape that it is in today without the advice of the good people here at C3VR. You will have a lifelong enjoyment with the new toy.
