I would just like to say hi to every in the C3 forum. Also wanted to say, I’m looking forward to asking for help & showing the progress of my project 73 couple I just bought.

The car didn’t come with a Engine or a tranny. I bought the car about a mouth ago, I’ve picked up a tanny, both a stock master 350 engine rebuild kit & a Eagle 383 Stroker rebuild kit with Domed pistions. The body work is about 80% done. I’ll keep you all posted.

To tell you a little bit about my self. Last summer I bought a 84 Yamaha @ a yard sell for 200.00 & had fun restoring it. So I wanted to take on something a little bigger.

Welcome to the madness!

I think you will find that the vette will fulfill the "bigger project" needs, and then some.

To post pics, what you need to do is to first upload your pic(s) to
a location on the internet. Some people use cardomain.com, photobucket.com, photohost.org or if your ISP provides you with some webspace, that will work too. Then in your post, click on the "Insert Image" button (directly below the right side of the font "size" box) and place the whole address to the pics within the box that appears. To finish click the OK button and what ends up within your post should look something like this.

Note that the image tags (img) are misspelled (image) so they will show
up here and not actually try and display a picture.

Hope this helps. Good Luck w/the project!
