You might need a 4 wheel drive Vette up there.

Re: moving to alaska (vip3r)

vip3r,
I've found a couple of C3's up here for sale, one of them might be right up your alley. A guy that owns an alignment shop up here in Fairbanks has a 76 that needs some attention. Could probably pick it up relatively cheap.

Where are you going to in Alaska? How long will you be staying? If you have any questions that I could help you with, just let me know, post it here or drop me an e-mail. Good luck.

John

Re: moving to alaska (vip3r)

Stop in to Whitehorse on your way through. I know of a couple of C3's for sale. one is a '75 coupe with an L-82. Paint is really oxidized, but the guy claims the engine was recently rebuilt. The ad in the paper says "no reasonable offer refused.

BTW, VETTE season is now officially over up here. Lots of snow. :(

Jeez -- from Gilbert Arizona to Fairbanks Alaska, and in the winter !! :eek: :eek:

I would at least stay the winter down here, like all of the snowbirds do.
Have you ever seen snow before, besides the weather channel?
