This is kinda what I'd like for the front end of my '76 except I'd keep the stock headlight set up and normal hood. It was for sale in my area a week or so ago. I don't see that wide body '69 now so...

The skills you have acquired and your stick-to-it-ism are impressive Priya. My wife comes in my shop about once a year and is usually looking for the cat.

Yah a hood scoop should ideally be functional. Otherwise they're like toupees and breast implants. I can spot both a mile away (everybody's good at something right?)

Now that's a C3 mod I can get behind. Looks great. Nothing radical and works perfectly with the rest of the car. I've been mulling over some front bumper work on my '76. I'm not chrome bumper...

It's 20K in US funds. The 28K asking price is in CDN currency. So maybe less than 20K if he'll negotiate. C3's aren't selling very well right now so I imagine he'll dicker a bit.

Yeah definitely nice wheels. Looks like the quality of the bodywork is pretty good too. But workmanship aside, that's a really bizarre looking Corvette. I've seen C3 station wagon conversions I'd...

A rather unique '69

I'm typically very tolerant of guys modifying their cars. This is just ridiculous though (to me). You'd think at some point whoever did it would have realized how awful it was going to look....

Balance Point

One of my winter options for storage is putting my C3 on my hoist for 5-6 months. I had my `96 Ranger Splash V8 project on the hoist all of last winter. No engine in it and no box on the back so it...

I can't decide if I prefer a body colored C3 firewall or just black. I like both. Either way your engine bay looks really spiffy.
