C3 Owners Age
I saw a thread like this in the C4 forums and I was curious as to if the results we're similar for the C3's? Also if you would comment the year of your car and length of ownership/pictures that would be great too! Im really interested haha. Not looking for specific age just:
20 & Under
20 - 30
30 - 40
40 - 50
50 - 60
60 - 70 and so on
Feel free to keep to yourself if you want haha!
Personally I am 16 and have a 1978 recently restored by me
20 & Under
20 - 30
30 - 40
40 - 50
50 - 60
60 - 70 and so on

21 here, bought mine right after I turned 20.
Before I bought a C3 I didn't realise how many younger guys were into them. Now since I've seen on the forum that it's not really uncommon, everytime I see a new guy I get a little boost of faith in our generation haha. Your car look great btw, awesome job!

Wow! Looks good! Don't know if you've looked into it or thought about it but the paint on the panels under the doors and around the windshield is fairly easy to get off and in my opinion would make your dark paint pop! Either way love the color and the year obviously haha

I was your age when these cars were still new, was my favorite Corvette ever since I was 10 in 1968. Graduated high school '77 and finally got same year car only 5 months ago.
I've been an admirer of old cars from afar until recently, always happy to see other people take theirs to car shows.
New cars don't mean much to me, other than better gas mileage and features: ventilated/heated seat of my DD!
