Nice! One quest ending and the next beginning: The never ending search for the best stretch of road in North America to burn some rubber on. Have at her.

I too love the 73 look. Sounds like the price was right, and I'll bet you knew the in's and out's of buying this time.

Happy to read you found another C3, Dose. The '73 guys have your feet in both worlds and that is a great thing when building a bridge.

Curious to see pictures when you get that unit home. Welcome to while-I'm-at-it world and good to have you active again.

Yup, Black

I forget what he said the original color was. He said when it was stripped down that there were 2 colors so it was already painted once.

I could care less what the original color was...it would end up being black anyway!

Saw the car again yesterday. They had already started working on it, so I couldn't take any more pics.

But my wife saw it in person for the first time, and she said the car was beautiful and that I picked the right one... Can't wait til next week when I bring her home!
