Vette(s): 1979 Red #72 C3 Corvette,T-350,Black interior,air,tilt/tele,K&N.And a 1978 Olds Cutlass 350/350,auto,air,2-dr.,buckets
After searching the internet and locally within a 100 mile radius,for a new C3 to replace my wrecked bright yellow #56 L-48 with less than 78,000 miles-I found a '79 L-82 right here in town.It was unadvertised,and was brought to my attention by the girl pharmacist where I go to get the medication I'm taking for my head-on collision.Her father is parting with one of his 4 Vettes,he also has a 57 & 55 Chevy,big block '70 El Camino,among others.The 79 is red/black w/ 90,000 miles,in pristine condition w/ all options for $9000.Thats my Xmas present! Merry Christmas! |thumb| |cheers|

See there ,in every dark cloud there is a silver lining put a big bow on it park it in the garage,and you'll be all ready to ride this spring,by that time maybe you'll be done with therapy,and take that cute little blond nurse for a ride. Merry Christmas |thumb| Ron 78

Well,unfortunately,the pharmacist girl is married,but shes cute,& looks like her geneology is pacific islander(names Leilani).And I think she deserves a rose & a Christmas card,eh? |cheers| Hey,Ron,I checked out a couple silver vettes too.1 was in bad shape,the other was out of my price range-it was,if I remember right,a '73 big block 454 for $25,000. You get yours for a reasonable price?
