well, just sold the '78.
Signed over the title, delivered the car, and got paid for the car this morning so the C3 is gone.
Down to just the '65 Vette now.

The last 3 years have been interesting and fun but time to move on.

BTW, even though I won't be visiting the C3 section anymore, or at least probably only rarely, my website's Tech Articles section http://lbfun.com/Corvette/Tech/vettetech.html will still be up for those of you that make use of it.

 

 

Thanks Barry I go there often.

 

We appreciate the website that you took the time and effort to compile. There is so much helpful information there.
26,000 views on your timing sticky speaks for itself.
Goodbye, and thanks, PG.

Barry, thanks for all your great technical insights and support of the member community. Drop in and say Hi every now and again.

 

Barry, I remember a couple of years ago you paiting that car in the hopes of selling it. Were you actively trying to sell it all this time? It definitely is one nice car and I hope you got what you wanted out of it. Don't forget to stop in here and check in from time to time.

 

Stay in touch!!! (on the C2 section...)

 

Barry, I have referenced your site multiple times so Many Thanks for compiling the info and making that available.

You may have sold one and happy that you're not entirely Corvette free. I mean, how could you? JK.

Don't be a stranger. Many of us will still be here or be back soon after a hop in the car. Later, Man.

 

thanks for the kind words guys.

Kevin, it's been a few years now so you are one of the few people that remember that '80 frame replacement project. I still appreciate the tip for the frame source you gave me.

C3 4ME, the original idea was to fix it and flip it but after it was done my wife decided she wanted it for herself and after putting in all the work and effort on the car I couldn't bear to get rid of it so we decided to keep it. It was always for sale if the right person came along and offered the right price but we weren't really actively trying to sell it.
Lately though, unfortunately, circumstances changed and we needed the cash, the room in the garage, and a new daily driver for the wife all of which dictated that the '78 finally had to really go. I sold it for a lot less than what my asking originally would have been 2-3 years ago but with the market down I can't complain TOO much - I covered my cost on the car and we had 3 years enjoyment out of it.
I think it went to a good home and the new owners are only about 20 minutes away from me so they might end up joining our Corvette Club in which case I'll still get to see the car every now and than

 

Sorry to hear you won't be frequenting this section Barry and thanks for your contribution and help. I will be reading your much needed info from time to time.

Thanks again.

 

Sorry to see you leaving the C3 section Barry. Lots of C2 info is good here though, feel free to lurk anytime.

Barry,
All the best and thanks for your many contributions. I took a different tack last summer and sold my C2 (1967) and bought a C3 (1974). No regrets. Time passes and our priorities change.

Keep up that web site. It is very informative!

 

Your experience is needed regardless of section on the forum, no need for goodbyes other then to mention you sold one of your vettes.

 

Don't be a stranger. Once a C3'er, always a C3'er.

Thanks for the Tech articles, Barry - used them to tune up my 73. Hope to see you at a corvette get together in Delaware.

 

don't let the door hit your ***.

 

Better your *** than your head. Where you been ?
