    I was aware of your C5GrandSport - but did not know about the Silver Devil - so I did a search and a little reading. Wow! What a car! Love it!

    Hello, I am trying to find your thread on the fuel door actuator going bad? I read on a thread that after reading about your experience, someone else's went bad. But I cant find the original post.

    Painted. You couldn't do that with vinyl.

    Hey SD, Who did your Red Stripe? Is it painted or vinyl? Thanks.

    No, 70-72 is a totally different style, egg crate look vs. horizontal slats. Why would you do that?

    Bill, my name is Jim Halpin (manofsteel1) and I was highly recommended by another member to ask you this question about a C3. Mine is '73 coupe and I would like to replace the front license plate assembly for a center grill. Found one in the forum for a good price but it fits a '70-'72. Will this fit my '73. If it nly requires a little bit of modification, then it is worth it to me. Do you know what that might take to do? I know that mine is suppose to have chrome strips on the front but they are all worn off. Or the other way around. So, if you could help me out, I sure would appreciate it. Thanks for your time.
    Jim
