hello C3 members! I just signed up and I am trying to attach some pics of my 76 but can't figure out how. Some help would be appreiated.
I just bought my 76 and will need alot of help fixing her up.
This is my first corvette and I have always wanted one. This is my retirement toy and I will drive it every spring and summer!
For example: I want to replace the steering wheel with something nicer but can't find any that will fit the 1976. Dose anybody know a source for alternate style steering  wheels that will bolt on?

To attatch photos, open a free account at photobucket.com, load your photos there and the copy and paste the info from the last box located below the photo. Please ressize it before pasting otherwise they are too big.
 
    Have you looked at catalogs like Mid-America or Corvette America? Lots of vendors out there. Do a search of this site to find out more info.

Carl,
 
It should get you started. Big thing on the pictures is to keep them small so our dial-up members remain members.
 
And welcome to the site.

Thanks for the help guys! this will be the start of a great time on line with help from all! Who knows after I get going I might be able to pass along some help to other new members at some point.
Joel, the magic picture should now appear on my signature now!
