I was very fortunate to get the Vette when I did, for $5000 I thought it was a steel, but I am finding out I have much work to do to it. I have been told by many numerous Vette dealers that the C3 will take off in the next couple of years. These are the next big thing in the future.

Bumper vettes are going through the roof.
