What can I say. Crimes against Corvettes should be punished.

To each their own. It wasn't worth much to begin with, even less now.

I don't mean this as an insult but I am glad I don't live in Europe and have to drive on their streets.

C3s must be incredibly rare in Belgium. The horror movie loving part of me actually likes the skull mascot and the skeleton hands holding the rear view mirrors. Looks like a '78 silver anniversary paint job so incredibly dulled that it's not incomparable with the bizarre dead flat finish (original? or extremely expensive new repaint?) that I've seen on a very few new BMWs while driving in Europe and Turkey but didn't see in the amazing BMW museum show room in Munich with an indoor test drive road. What surprises me is that it seems to have no seats and has sat there for a LONG time without being towed.

BTW, for those who don't know, BMW now owns Rolls Royce. The brand-new Silver Cloud (?) with coach doors one side of which were open as the car slowly rotated on a turntable in the non-museum section had the most beautiful new car interior I've ever seen. I think the interior lighting came from the insanely expensive (think you can buy a fair car for it)

"starlight" headliner option.

Guessing you have never been there. I drove there and it was a joy [but wish it was in my C3]
