Default Newbie Buy's First Vette

Am in the process of closing a deal on this piece of art. Needs lots of attention and I hope I can count on some of you for your vast knowledge in this area. Total Interior nightmare. Will be well worth every hour spent on it.
First time owner of one of these beauties and I think it's a keeper.
Been lurking for awhile and this is a great place. Sure glad I found it.

Welcome to the Corvette Forum. You will love this place. I am here every morning for about an hour. Gives me time to wind down and see what everyone is doing to their car. You will find all the help you could ever want.

:cool: Nice Ride. :cool:

Thanks. They were a brand called Kustom Headers which preceded the Hooker Headers. They were developed in concert with Chevrolet for use in the L-88 racing program and received a Chevrolet part number.

I don't believe the company is in business any longer. Yes, I painted them white.
