Welcome

Tell us something about your car.  How did you come to own it.  What is the condition and what are your priorities for it?

Well, first off sorry I didn't answer you sooner. I have been trying to fix some of the minor problems. I found my toy in Indiana in October of last year. Its a driver that needed a little TLC. I've had the slave cylinder and the gear box rebuilt. Had the car out only to find out that I needed to change the right caliper. Well you guessed it. Changed all four. Couldn't get the brake lights or horn to work, now I find out I'll need a new turn signal harness. I contacted all the C3 suppliers for but no one has any, Only to find out who is the main supplier ( Lectric Limited ) said there that its on back order for about two months. I'm not complaining at all, I really like the car. It's missing the air condition unit, but I know I'll be able to find one. It's a convertible all numbers match, 327/300.

Sounds like a nice car.  I'm checking a person I know may have something for you tomorrow.

Can someone help me on this. My gauge on the car is telling me there is a discharge. Could it be a ground problem or alternator? When I put anything on like the heat fan or headlights on it shows discharge more. Thanks
