What's that saying? Right in your own backyard?
As I get older (I'm only 25...), my lust for a C3 grows...
And in my traderonline searches... this comes up... http://adcache.collectorcartraderonl...4/41714814.htm
Lets just say to be more perfect, it would have to be BB, AC, Vert... at more $$ of course :)
Of course, this is in my small city too!

It looks pretty nice, if it is as nice as it looks then go for it, (see if you can get them down to about 9K,) then take the 1K and put in a aftermarket A/C from Vintage Air or HotRod Air (they are the same systems.)

Looks like it could be a nice "driver". Do you plan to look at it?
I am heading out for the weekend, and my wife bought a new fridge today that I get to go pick up (in the rain!)... so I be busy tomorrow...

OK... just talked to him (very nice).
I'm gonna go and take a looksie (and some pictures) tonight... weather here is crap, so no test drive (he does not drive the car in the rain).
Has the original engine, but new components. Mild cam, flat top pistons, bored .020 over.
Rebuilt QJet.
Front suspension rebuilt with stock components, new front springs.
New brakes.
Vacuum system works A-OK :thumbs:
It is a TX car as far as he knows (about the last 18-20 years) so "no rust to speak of"
Black interior (original, cept stereo). Seats might need covers if picky (not ripped, just worn).
Yellow paint (original yellow car, just a repaint from 10-12 years ago) that is a 10 footer.
TTops leak a little when washing (probably contributes to the not driving in the rain :smash:)
Its just a toy to him (he drives it on the weekend and on cruises) and just wants something new :)
I'll post the pictures tonight...
