My first Vette, now owned by JB79:
Hello all,
My name is Curt aka "Guff" and I recently purchased a well used and loved 1979 Corvette, near Tampa, Florida. I have always liked the C3's and am a bit of a gear head myself, being a 3S enthusiasts (Dodge Stealth / 3000GT) and Supra fan for many years. I have owned several twin turbo cars on the 3S platform and have upgrades from simple BPU, to all out builds surrounding larger turbos, fuel, engine management and all the other stuff that puts a hurting on the wallet. I went single on my MKIV back in the day and really enjoyed my time I spent with them.
However, wrenching on cars every weekend, is not my idea of fun anymore and have moved towards my first love of C3's.
As mentioned above, I have a 79 350 / Auto with a nice cam in her. She sits proud and is a definite head-turner. Shes not perfect by no means, but 100% eye candy from 20 feet away! As any good Chevy, she has her problems every now and then, but I don't care. The car looks amazing just sitting in the garage in slumber, until I take her out for a spin.
Just wanted to take a quick moment to do an intro. I will be posting some questions here shortly, as for I have an electrical issue I can not wrap my head around and looking for senior insight.
Hope all is well and glad to be part of the community.
