Update to my new C3 issues....
WOW! You guys are great! Thanks so much for all the info!
Here's the latest news.
1. The heater is now fixed and will run you out! We had to change the valve from the heater coil and went on and put in new hoses.
2. I got some grease spray, and sprayed the door pads and up inside them, too. I can actually now open it with just one hand and not stand on the pad with all my weight!
3. We have been all day washing/waxing the vette and just haven't even tried to look for that silly fuse box! I will try tomorrow. So, I am still almost as dumb on that as I was before. But, at least now, I know where to look for sure! I was searching every where!
Here are some pics. of my Black Stallion after we detailed it. The one before was a paid detailed job, the lady we bought it from had done. I think ours is much better! I wouldn't pay $100.00 for what she got! Humm Maybe we need to go into detail work if that's the case? Something else to think about...
Thanks everyone for your help! We really appreciate it!
Just amazing what a little wax and polish will do for one. Still needs a paint job, but not as bad as I thought. At least it will shine some.

Looks great! Have fun with the fuse box ...it's a pain to get to. Luckily I have a convertible so I basically lay upside down to get under the steeering wheel. I dread whenever I have to change a fuse.
