Topic: Drive it like you stole it, or drive it like a granny?
in Forum: C3 General Discussion
My prior C3 (also a 77) had well over 120k miles and I drove it almost daily. Just got this one 24 days ago and have put 376 additional miles to the documented 42,984 (I am the fourth owner). It’s almost all original except for a repaint (same color) in 1993, Hurst 4 speed short throw shifter, custom glass T-Tops and ceramic long tube headers (with new pipes/mufflers) so it’s not a “survivor”. Love driving it, but just wondering if I should preserve it a little more/not rack up the miles? What do you think?
Lifetime Member"DRIVE IT" Its yours! Enjoy it! Forget about the next owner. Chances are they won't leave it alone, they'll do what they want too. Don't store it. No joy in that.
Drive it like it was made to be friven
Fun but safe.
the street is not a race track

There are more than enough trailer queens and museum pieces out there. Drive it and enjoy it...!!!

There should be room for both, but after all...you are the owner. Whatever you choose is the right choice. Sharing is also nice, so when you choose, post up some pic's and tell us the story.

I'm a Granny style. Last speeding ticket received in '83 proves it.
