Thanks. I like it kinda raw like this too. Tomorrow I get an all new tail light set and then I think I’m done back here.

My ‘77. Painted it steel cities gray a couple years ago. I’m not sure how close it is to the real color. Most of the time it just looks silver to me.

Yes indeed. These beautiful 70's artifacts that remind me of very stylishly upholstered plywood. This car is going to get driven a lot so I'm currently on page 75 of "C3 Seat Options for Beginners".

Yes, the early C3 seats are not comfortable. The late C3 seats are a big improvement in both comfort and appearance. Only drawback is the high bolsters make it harder to get in and out of the car. Worth it for me.

Default '69 Convertible

This is a '69 Convertible we got last summer, but it needed a little work. We were able to participate in a few local shows last fall, so I have a few pictures.
