Hi all,

i am looking to buy a pre-76 C3. Reason for a pre-76 cutoff is that I'm in California where the smog laws were written by the same people who wrote the Soviet constitution for Josef Stalin. The loophole is that it only affects 1976 and newer M.Y., leaving 1975 and older cars alone.

Originality is not essential, strong running no issue car is. Manual trans and working, fully charged A/C are important. This will be a back up to my daily rider.

Here's the car I bid on but missed because I was too busy at work: http://bringatrailer.com/listing/197...olet-corvette/
Please check this link to get a feel for what I'm looking for.

My current DD is a 2001 E39 Touring with 82k miles in case anyone is interested in a trade. Otherwise my budget is up to $9k. Best way to reach me is to call or text at 818 822 8625. Thank you

Sorry you missed out on that blue '75. That looks to have been a great buy at $8,000!

I have a 1975 that I bought because of the same exemption in the emissions testing law in Colorado. My car is silver with the red interior. It is a coupe , automatic, and original.Needs some tlc. Pictures on request $8250

A/C and manual are sort of the sticking points. tried sending you a pm, don't see how to do it here. Send me a pm so that I can shoot you my email. Thanks

I wish it was a 4 speed...It does have ac. I do have a 69 convert with a 4 speed but it is more of project than you would want most likely.Good luck in your search

'69 vert is more than I want to spend. However, if you can send me a pm with eithe pics of your car, link to the photo site or your email I'm interested at taking a look...
