They are a tribute to a different time in America. This is my way of regaining that time.

Don't forget about us '80s babies... The young whippersnappers of the C3 crowd.

DDawson - I'd recognize that 1969 Riverside Gold 427 anywhere! I was the woman at the Abel show drooling over your car (and tongue-in-cheek - asking you if you wanted to sell it!).

I'm so excited to have found my 1969 L46 just a few weeks ago. These cars are just amazing.

Ya can't ignore any year C3. From the first year to the last, they are beautiful.

You haven't lived until you've done a body off on a C3.

Thanks! Yeah, keeping the original 195 hp wasn't an option for me, so... I broke a few of their rules

The first pic is the only reason this car is mine. Before I got too old to shove in the clutch, I wanted something with a 4speed trans. Made the guy an offer I didn't think he'd take and next thing I knew I was driving it home from south of Daytona Beach. It's always been a work in progress and will always be. Have a great weekend, Bill

Absolutely beautiful. That's the C3 color and look I always think of immediately when I think of the best of the C3s.

Easily my favorite color of them all on the C3.

Was it just 68-69 they offered that color?
