Default Finding nice C3 picts… help please

Can any one of you great C3 fans recommend a site or sites that I might be able to find some nice hi res C3 photos to Dl for a State club website that we are designing. Or even if you would like your C3 showcased, please submit. Thanks in advance. Please excuse the fact that you might see similar postings in all gen forums as we are looking for C1 to C7 photos as well..

When I first purchased my '79, I spent a great deal of time using google to search for C3 pictures and found a lot of high resolution pictures, which helped me quite a bit. California Stingrays have a lot of pictures on their website, including a few of my car. If you need more help, PM me an I'll send you a link to my library.

Thanks! I enjoy this car. The OP did not state what he/she is really looking for so I am guessing. This pic on October 29 just before Halloween. Hardtop on. Temp was ~26*F.

The green posts are guides for the snowblowing service. Looks like about 1" of the white stuff tomorrow.



This is why those guides are needed.

Thanks Steve. I'll never get around to getting a 1969 but that is OK. When you are on a pension some dreams disappear. But some people would be happy with this car. I am.

Your car is as nice as many people's dreams, Paul. You don't owe explanations to anyone. Beautiful.

Paul your 74 is beautiful, thanks for posting. I see you also like 69's. My 2nd Corvette and first brand new one was a 69. They were a nice car, but your C3 is something to be proud of. I have a few old pictures of my 69 i will post for you.

Flh Den,

Very nice car! And I imagine it had a little "spunk".

I could not afford a Corvette for many years. The 1979 was my first. I made do with the likes of an AMC Gremlin X, 304 V8, and Levis interior. You could hear it rusting on a quiet evening.
