Default C3 summary history
Hey Guys,

Saw this on my morning news feed by MotorTrend (reprint from HotRod).

https://www.motortrend.com/news/chev...te-history-c3/

Apparently the C2 history had some fallacies. So if you see any in here, let me know, I would be curious to know them.

Enjoy.

Not a big deal, but from the article it sounds like the chrome front bumper went away in 72 rather than 73. The article is a little light on details, but I guess most readers of Hot Rod do not want or need the type of information that some if us fanatics require. Overall, I thought it was pretty good.
