Thank you all for the Welcome.

I hope to gain some knowledge, information and idea's from all the experience here.

I purchased my vette after it had been in storage for 8 years. It has 67,000km on it (41631 miles) recently installed a ZZ4 crate engine and Hughes TH350 Transmission, new exhaust with Hedman ceramic headers, also has a complete new interior - carpet, dash, door panels etc. Paint is original black (black interior) was re-painted just before being put into storage ?? (not sure why). Suspension was also upgraded with a poly bushing kit and rides like a dream.

Wow Sounds like a lot was done and none of it enjoyed until you got it.

 Too Sweet Rob. That's the best way to buy an old vette, after someone else has put all the money into it. At least it lessens the obstacles to conquer in order to get her out on the road. Sounds like a great ride. I love those fastbacks.
