Hello everybody, As I sold my Corvette 2 yrs ago I really need to clear out some parts left on the shelves of my man cave.
I'm seventy five years old and I hated to part with my toy(78 L82) but someone came along and offered a price I could not refuse.
Since the docs have found us to be in excellent shape for our age my bride of fifty-one years and myself has decided to spend the winter months building a classic Bronco or a Jeep (much easier to get into and out of.)
We really enjoyed our time on this forum and learned many things the ten years of being a member so, I need to give-back a little and sell these parts pretty cheap.
Please see the for sale section for the listing of parts. It may take me a few days to get things posted so stay tuned.....Alex
P.S....If I break any forum rules remember, I'm a feeble old man...

Hate to see you getting out of Corvettes, but pleased you're going to continue on in car building. I'm only a few years behind you, so understand about some vehicles being easier to get in and out of.

Alex - since you had a C3 and posted in that area of the forum, I’m going to move this thread over to the C3 General section. I’m sure some members over there will remember you.

Sorry to hear about the sale of your Vette/Glad to hear you and Wife are doing well. Wouldn't Jeep parts be easier to aquire?

Have fun you young 'uns!

Hey Rich.
Wondered where you'd gone off to! Glad you guys are doing OK
Bronco, as in FORD
Friend had an older Bronco when I lived in Hawaii back in the 90s. I got to drive it a few times dropping him at the airport. Lotta fun.

Looking forward to see what you are selling.

PS I sold both my 78s last few years.
