Norbert,  sounds like your C3 friends are glad to hear from you again.  Just a quick one to say that I spent quite abit of time in Belgium while stationed at USAF base in Laon, France during the early 60's.  We made friends with a special family that lived in Lede, Belgium.  The parents have passed on, but we still correspond with the family members.

One of my cars during my tour in France was a '53 Ford Skyliner that was made in Belgium. 
 
Take care

Glad to see you back again, Norbert.  I got to see both videos too, and they are great.  Really cute little gal ya got there.  Its great that you are exposing her to Vettes at an early age, just be prepared for when she wants one of her own.    Smile
