1980 all Black
Hello all, new to this board and new to owning a Vette. Just picked up a 1980 all black and it needs a lot of work. It is driveable, just needs a lot of interior TLC. The previous owner tried to paint it but it is full of sags and runs. Could of done a better job in my sleep. Will surely be posting here looking for info and how-to's. Not new to working on vehicles, just new to these.

Thanks in advance

Oh yeah almost bought a truck from them. We actually moved here from upstate NY 13 yrs. ago.

Just some more info on car. We went to the Food Lion Auto Fair at Lowes today and found a vendor from Pa. He just happened to have a fairly fresh rear spring-25 bucks and a rather decent L88 style hood-75. Somehow those ended up in the back of my truck.:D Sring is going in first and when I get around to painting car I'll throw the hood on. Unless I get anxious and put in on anyway.

Thanks for the welcome!
