Hi all,

I needed to get on a forum before jumping back into Vette ownership. I had a C3 81 back in the day, and have been wanting back in for sooo long. Most of my questions are going to be what to look out for as possible" land mines" pertaining to this generation of Corvette. All help will be greatly appreciated.

Welcome.

I was fortunate enough to have two at the same time, a his and her thing, enjoyed both of them, no major problems to speak of, 57K on one, 130K on the other.
