Default Looking for my old 71 LT-1 Vert.

I was wondering if anyone out there has my old C3

Like the title says it a 71 LT-1 Conv, sunflower yellow, with black leather and aux top. Corvette Mike (Anaheim) sold it to someone in New York (or at least I believe he said it was going to NY).

I'm just curious as to how the new owner is enjoying the car. It was (and it should be still!) a beautiful car.

Yes, thats the one.

I hated to let it go but there was no way I could get the next one without the funds from selling it. That car never gave me any trouble.

Yep, it was a car I missed out on. I was trying to find someone to inspect it and by the time I was able to get one arranged someone bought it. I was too little too late. It happens.

What did you end up getting?

I found a very original 66 GT350 (Red 4 spd).

Powertrain is all original as well as 95% of the paint and the metal. Flew to TX from So. Cal and drove it home. 1700 mile trip and not one issue. Actually Mr. Shelby passed away the day I was driving it home.

The guy I bought the LT-1 from used the money to buy a 68 GT500 KR conv. At least the car is being sold for the right reasons (not divorce or illness thank god).

Damn, I wish you would've bought my LT-1. If you see it around the forum or what not please let me know.

Thanks
John
