I would love to mod my 73 convertible but the urethane bumper just takes away a little too much for me....Others may not think so and that's fine....Just got such a great deal on it when I got it 17 years ago....

If I ever sell mine and want another C-3 it would have to be both crome bumpers..

Bought in in '03 for $19k, sold it in '08 for $25k. It was a NOM car with very little true documentation, although it was definitely an original BB car and the color codes were correct... a hot-rod really, more than a full resto-mod, although it had gone through a body-on restoration a number of years before I bought it. Certainly not a frame-off resto. I lost a little $$, but not much. In today's market, the car would be worth $35-36k probably.
