FINALLY!!!!! New C3 owner
I couldn't wait any longer! I had to post! I've just purchased my first C3...well...first two C3's I should say! The deals are done, just have to fly down, pick them up, and trailer them home. First car is an original 1979 L-82 auto, beige with doeskin that I bought searching through the forum. Thanks Darrell for all the patience, and Shane for looking it over...can't wait to see it in person! Number two is a 1969 427/390 4-speed convertible, daytona yellow with black leather and black top. Too bad the summer is almost over
Thanks to all the other members who looked at cars for me, had the patience to answer all my questions, and put up with my posts.

Congrats on the new purchase!!
Don't worry about summer being over! IMHO the nicest time riding with the top down would be spring or fall. The only time I really manage to take the Ttops off on mine in the summer is at night because its so dang hot!

Two sweet looking cars. I like the way you shop. I need someone to teach me how to pull something like that off. I'd be livin in a trailer, if I did that.
Congrats and more pics when you get them home.
