    Hi Ralph:
    The car has been a member of the family and maintained as such for almost 41 years. Pretty much everything on the car works. When the clock quit, I replaced it. Battery was replaced two weeks ago. A/C serviced last summer, TH400 last spring. Car came with vinyl but I've replaced the door panels, carpet & sunvisors with those from leather interior. Seats received cloth inserts (from an Olds '98) in the mid-70s. Only major non-stock part is the L88 hood. The two things wrong that I know of:1) the wiper door opens when engine shuts off, and 2) Tach cable needs replacement. I just relocated to AZ and still haven't found a guy I trust for that kind of work. Brakes were gone through completely by my So Cal Corvette dealer about 3,000 miles ago. Car starts quickly, runs great. It suffers most from lack of use.

    continued

    Hi <you name>? Starting to look for my next C3, Do you have any other <High Res> interior, exterior and / or undercarriage pics you could send me? AC Working? Leather or Vinyl Inter? Any chance there is "Heat Insulation" installed under carpet? Any crack / spidering in paint? any updates / recent replacements for Suspension? Looking for a C3 to just enjoy, that is ready to go without me having to work on it...for now...Thank you for your time...Ralph (pigna48@yahoo.com)
