Default Does anyone have (or pics of) a Purple early c3?

The bride-to-be has taken a sudden fascination in Corvettes - But more precisely, Early C3s in purple. I'm having trouble finding pictures. If anyone could post them here, I'd appreciate it.

I'd like to make some wallpaper for her out of them =)

Thanks.

Do you mean Maroon? Maybe not the highest quality shot...

Z-Man, I do mean purple.

I think only C4/c5 had an actual purple color, but I figure someone has to have had some custom paint done?

I remember there was a purple C3 on the forum a couple of years ago. I think it was 70 - 72. Had a very hot engine. It was an awesome car and the guy couldn't sell it. There are probably some pics floating around somewhere in the archives. I remember it well because I WANTED TO BUY IT!!!!!! Think he was in Pennsylvania somewhere..................... sigh!

Man, I need to take some new pics.
These are from the day I bought it, it really is purple, but the pics make it look like a navy blue.
