I want a black '69 427 convertible with chrome pipes. Haven't started saving yet. What's the use. Big mortgage, kid in college, one more coming up. Maybe when I'm 65.

The reason I want a second C3 is that I have found that I have been wasting a lot of money on my '77 buying things it doesn't really need. For instance, replacing the vacuum acuator on the EFE valve just because it didn't look 'brand new'.
I've reached the point where my '77 looks like it's only about a year or so old. On a moments notice, I can take it on a 1000+ mile road trip with having only to check the oil and air in the tires before I head out.
Frankly, half the fun of owning a C3 is working on it.
Anybody else feel this way right before they bought their 2nd (or more) C3?

Orange/silver? Is that a factory combo? Looks kinda "off"... I'd like a triple-silver '74 BB vert.
For my second car, I'd like a white '77 with the scantily clad, long-legged blonde model option.

Not sure about the colors but I want the aux hard top to go with it.

Assume you mean another C3? Mine would have to be a '73 vert in high gloss black with lacquer that looks 6" deep. It'd have to be a small block (gas prices are insane) & I'd seriously think of sticking a '80-'82 front on it. And maybe a supercharger (just for the hell of it!). Oh, what the heck, it's all pretend anyway, it'd have a wildly cammed 427 nestling in it. And I'd still throw a supercharger at it. Or maybe twin turbos? That'd be a hoot 
Dual 2 1/2 pipes, no mufflers.
Interior color would be, er, I dunno
Black? Red? Or would brown be better with twin turbos & BFG's 
If not a C3, then it'd have to be a '67 Vert. In red with black interior. Engine? Who cares, it'd be a '67 Possibly, maybe, I'd have a '63 in yellow (like one here), 350, disc brakes & rack & pinion steering, to give to the wife. Being in the wife's good books always pays dividends
