Hey Mark,

Another C3 makes it in to the loving arms of a C3VR member. (Yeah, it sounds kinda corny but who cares Wink).
I'm glad it worked out for you.

Vega Wheel?  That's okay.

The 75 was the lowest HP ever.
 
The 77 and up a few years had,  you ready,  a Chevette heater control!
 
Grin and bear it,  they are still great cars

Vega wheel? I kinda like mineLOL. The real problem is the steering column is a 1 year only setup so no after market wheel. Unless you want to change out about 5 internal parts.
 
Lowest HP Confused nothing a few dollars won't take care ofBig%20smile
 
The 76 is one of the less expensive vettes to buy which leaves some change in the pocket. Well for a short while anyLOL

Way to go Mark! Do you still have your bike also? We should try to have a get together in the spring, maybe get some people within a few hours of each other and we can have a one day thing.
