Picked up the Vette today!!
Today I picked up my C3,and had my first 50 mile drive home in it!
I never expected all the reactions and attention this car gets,you almost never see them on the road here,and people slowed down and gave me thumbs up at the highway!!
It drives great,and since it is a perfect sunny day here,she is soooo shiny!! :cool:
It's a 1982 Crossfire,totally stock,just how I wanted it!!
I really enjoy riding this car,I have a grin from ear to ear........ :D :D
Expect some questions from me the next few days....... :cheers:

You have my congratulations too... I bet the thunder of the V8 just rocks the house walls on the streets in your neighborhood! Just imagine if you put loud mufflers on the car!
I love that color scheme.
So how many Euros did that baby set you back?

Pete,
You should get in touch with Twinnie, he lives in Enschede, he has a 82 also. His is undergoing a complete rebuild with a very modified motor. He can give you information on the Independent Corvette Club of the Netherlands. Good Luck on your new car, I know you'll really enjoy driving it.
