Noooooo...Poor Vette

This morning when I was taking my sister to school, I saw this red C3 with spoilers (I think it was a 78-82, didn't see it until it passed) It sounded great, but when I looked @ it, the car was covered in a layer of salt dust :cry :( I hope it gets washed soon...

I saw a red 74-77 coupe pass me up last week here in Minneapolis. Theres was no snow but the roads did have a white-ish layer of salt on them. The vette was covered with this salty dust. Poor vette is right.

It was just good to see a vette cruisin though.

Re: Noooooo...Poor Vette (Robert8096)

saw a Viper today, same condition...It was in a parking lot though :cry When I do see a nice car, they're in crappy condition.
1st C3 I saw, didn't know it was a Corvette then, had a crushed bumper
2nd C3, damaged paint
3rd C3, rusty sidepipes and sounded sick
