Ok, I just checked. 89% here do most of the work and 47% in the C-5 section---Ganey, I don't think you specified that painting calipers and changing shifter ***** was included. I think a lot more C-3 guys would have qualified!:D JK

You're right there! That's why I wanted a '70. No pollution crap and relatively easy to repair and modify and I don't need a lap top to adjust my idle:D

Have been doing all my own work for almost 30 yrs. I think half the fun of owning a C3 is tinkering with it . :seeya :smash: :cheers:

I have to work on mine. How else can you keep these things going all the time? Besides, it gives me the confidence of knowing I did it myself and it was done correctly. No shortcuts.
