Default Just got a c3 here in STL MO

Hi I'm Aaron and I'm a car-aholic. (hi aaron)
I bought earthquake68's 1982. (because that's what people go and do after it snows 6" the night before)
G/F always wanted one and I like them too. So now she's happy, which she tells me allows me to be happy.
And now with this car I'm back to having an even number of red, white, and black cars in my garage which is important right?

Right now just going to need to find interior pieces and fix other issues.
Oblitory pic.

went over there but it won't even let people register. Says it's turned off.

Who does the website? It needs some major updating in design.
Also doesn't look like much done since 2008.
I do web design an actually am an admin on another STL car board.
Somebody needs to give me access to revamp that place.

Congratulations.

Wow! That's a pretty nice looking car you have there. I wish you lots of luck with her. In about six months to a year I'll be looking for a '92-'96 Six speed. (in case any of you know a guy that knows a guy.) Maybe a Chrome bumper if it's the right car.

The wife and the girls already have Corvette withdrawal. I must say, It's wierd seeing the empty spot in the driveway.

Try this, not sure why that link doesnt forward.
There's a group of us C3 guys here in the St Louis area. Great resource for keeping these cars running, probably 100yrs experience in just a few of the founding members.
Try this link, there's also a yahoo group text message board, but dont have the link on this computer.

Sweet!!

You got a great looking car-platform to start with

If you ever looking for a power plant upgrade, swap one of these LS1s in there. The 82 was tailor made for this swap:

Gene, where the hell have you been hiding? Thought maybe you tagged a guard rail or something

A few of the Stl Sharks are planning on gathering for the Mardi Gras parade in St. Charles this Sat. (2/6) Check out the forum site ( http://www.stlc3sharks.com/messageboard/ ) under 2010 events for details. Feel free to join us
