Default Anybody Recognize this guy?

The guy just down and to the left of the girl. He's the blonde guy. He has a C3 and said he comes in the C3 section. Just wondering....... he used some of my cleaner on his paint and didn't finish the job.... want to find him to see if I can help him some more.

Ooh -- ooh -- ooh --- Dangit! The girl is Sarah...and they go to WVU... can't remember his name for the life of me!!! He's got a white '76 with a Firethorn interior - hangs out around here, so the story goes... I'd like to hear what he found for his ride at the show!

If I scan the Carlisle Program would you be able to pick out his name?

Im him, I got most of the stains out, but not all since we did it at night. The car looks much better now. When i get her home to maryland this weekend ill wash her cause there is alot of road grime on it. This stuff really did a great job and if anyone reading this has stains in thier paint use what he talks about. It took black walnut marks out of my white paint as if it was just dust. Thankyou

Here is a list of the stuff that i bought and thier prices cause some onje was interested. I think i made out well, although we had trouble getting it all in the car.
Here is what i bought
one striker for the rear comparment $1
clock adjuster **** $4 new
seat slider ****/auto shifter **** and button $10
rear sway bar endlinks and mounting hradware $45 new
a 350 hp cam, thats a 270 or 272 w/ hydrolic rollers, it was in a 327 for one week then replaced with a bigger one $25
1" front and 5/8" rear sway bar with good poly bushings $30
right side big block headers and side pipe, black w/ rust free
the left side was really beaten up, with alot of welds, and the pipe was welded to the header, there for i couldnt fit it in the back of my 76. The vendor had left them behind along with a few other little things that were usless to me. The stand next to them informed me of this. Now all i need is the big block or find some one w/ the left that wants the right. Hey free is free.

$45 for me and a friend all weekend including parking, not bad, bit agree, less vendors.

And agin much thanks to lusso

Ahhhhh haaa! There you are! I saw your vette up on the hill and it looked much cleaner but I did see some areas that you missed. There's a vette show coming up in WV some time soon. I know you're a college kid and on a tight budget so there's no charge for anything. I'll send you a few things that'll get your vette in top shape or I can meet you at the show and take care of it there............ then all your college buddies can really know what a vette is!

:cheers:

:cheers: Glad you are found and that you got some good deals while you were there. I didn't make out as good as you did, but seeing all those C3's made me buy a load of stuff to rebuild the whole suspension of the '71. I swear that next year (unless it's really HOT) I'll drive the '71 to Carlisle. Great to meet you and look forward to hooking up again sometime. You'll see me over here more often as I dig into the depths of the old bushings and bearings...

It will come back to WVU when the snow melts, but if i can ill try and make it to the show. There is a silver 69 300 hp 350 here, maybe he is going, i think it belongs to a proffesor. Ill try and make it but im not sure.
