Hey guys. I used to be an avid vetteforum reader/poster. I had a le mans blue 1977 L48 auto. I sold it to my dad. Well I pretty much gave it to him since I still havn't seen any cash for it, but I don't mind. I bought a 2000 celica GT-S 6-speed in replace of it(I know I know). Now I see my mistake. I want another C3. I'm searching for a 80 convertible conversion C3. I'm about to move to Boca Raton FL, so a "seasonal" car like a C3 can be driven daily down there I hope. :D

Anyway, just wanted to say hi, and that hopefully soon I'll have a new vette. The 77 is doing good, it's getting a crate engine, and the birdcage is getting reapired. And I guess my dad decided to repaint it black. Im just happy to hear its making my dad happy.

Daniel
PS. If you don't remember, I was and still am only 19, Dad bought me the car, I got the it when I was 17, and put maybe 5 or 6 grand in it. I live in eastern NC for the moment.

Welcome back, your old logon should still work. Did you happen to ever sell anything in parts for sale? I'm just having trouble placing a 17 year old named Daniel.

Welcome back, I think I remember you. You're an architecture student? You wanted to put a ZZ4 in the Vette?

Looking for an '80 vert?? Can't be too many of them around.

yeah...an arch student. Was going to go to Charlotte, but stalled to wait to go to FAU for arch(better scenery ;) ).

I posted a lot here under Dan77350 or something like that. I can't remember my password, and I guess I registered before they asked you questions, cus I don't have a question either. It's no biggie.

My dad doesn't know how to turn a computer, let alone go to a forum. I tried to show him, but he's technologically stubborn. :)
