I've searched before and don't remember this many C3ers. Good to see. I'm up in Wake Forest and planning for a body pull this spring if anyone is interested.

Obviously, I am not from Cary NC, however my 2004 Z16 #1543 was originally supplied by Hendrick Chevrolet , Carry, NC on 06/26/2004 to it first owner Mr. Wayne ..? from Raleigh, Wake, NC.

The Z is in great shape with 16K on the clock living in the UK and keeping company to my 1980.
