The red is the best thing about it! But then I am biased. That is a great looking car, the tires fill the wheel wells just right.

Welcome home. Your machine looks beautiful! I did the same thing and strayed into the C4 realm for a while but always knew I would be back to my C3s. Favorite Vette of all time is the C3 for me as well. Again, great to see you back!!!

Default Congrats!

Welcome back! I logged into today after an 8 year slumber. I have a 1972, and in April of 2021, I got it running again for the first time in 8 years. Don’t worry about the judging, unless you’re at the show lol.
