Sounds like a nice car.  Tell us a little about it.  How did you come to own it?  What condition is it in?  What are the first things you plan on doing do it?
PS nice Photos.

Thanks all for the warm welcome.. The history behind the car is my father purchased it about 22 years ago and I helped with a frame off restoration. Its not a matching numbers car and the original color was British Green.
4 Speed manual tranny
4.11 Rear
350CI engine

Working on some minor mechanical issue IE vacuum system headlights & wiper door issues AGAIN...
Some minor TLC needed on the interior
and whomever put in the alarm system made a mess out of my beautiful wiring job!!

I have not seen the car in about 12 years as my father moved to FL and he passed away shortly after moving back home this past Feb.

Now I need to get it to the condition he wanted in, even though he always said " This is not a show car it is meant to be driven and driven it will be"

Great story.  I always like to know the history of why people purchase their cars.  I agree with your dad in that corvettes are designed to be driven and driven it shall me.  

Welcome again and thanks for sharing with us.
