Well I put eyes on the car today. It’s a nice car, but there is a lot that needs attention-lots of small things broken or missing which will probably add up- and a couple high priced 68 only items are missing.

Thanks. I'm actually surprised this car never sold. apparently quite a few people were looking at it. guess nobody came up with the cash.

Yea Joe,,, it was a little more cash than I would want to pay for another C3 in my shop,, it really is good looking,, maybe need to lower my expectations, and realize prices might be trending upwards on these C3s,,,, I wish you all the best on bringing up to your level of a great car,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,teddy

so bit of an update- just about ready for spring and i got the car "finished"

Amazing that you can have a car that runs and drives, but need so much to make it right. I completely detailed under the hood, rebuild the wiper door, reinstalled the rear window shelf. and last but not least, I restored the rims, and bought a set of repop redline radials- I have the build sheet and this is how it was originally optioned. they really look great against the silver.
