Im at 121 and Hillcrest. Very odd we all live near each other and i have never even seen a C3 corvette in the area once. The most ive seen is one c4 and many C5s and C6s. I think the breakfast idea is a goodone, because advice abotu these cars is always best from someone who has one!

Zwede, your car is very nice

That's to funny that we have not see each other out. I am actually located at McDermott and Independance. Brenda and I are definitly up for an early GTG sometime soon over the weekend. Just give me some time to get the C3 to TX.

I have a friend of mine from college that lives near Coit and Spring Creek that has an incredible 70 vert 454 w/ all the options. I'm sure he would love to join in as well.

I hate ladders. If I take them down now, it will give the wife an excuse to have me put them back up next Christmas.

West McKinney just off Custer.
69 & 78 I started assembling the front suspension last night and should finish tonight. Tomorrow I intend to build the engine. The 69 is next. How come I never see any of these C3s on the road around here?
78 as of Tuesday night.

I didn't see another C3 on the road until about 6 months after I had bought mine. SInce then I've noticed a handful out and about a various times in this area.
I even passed a very nice Maco Shark one weekend!

One thing is for certain, you can expect a big wave when you see one on the road.

Once the weather and temperature gets a bit nicer, it would be cool for a group of local C3 CF folks to meet at a IHOP or Steak n Shake for breakfast some morning.

I'd love to see everyone's Vette up close.
