I'm sorry you're having such a hard time finding a car you like. Welcome back to Vette land. I hope the C2 amuses you for a while.

Seriously, the C2 looks like fun...enjoy.

I remember you very well. What kind of shape is the C2 in, project car, ready to roll, or what?

Thanks for the shout out!

Its a daily driver for sure. It's almost unmolested, numbers matching, some documentation, and I have the original protectoplate. Not planing anything major to it yet, like a frame off, but will be considering getting any little parts right, and some touch ups here and there.

That sounds like the perfect condition to get. Not so pristine that you're reluctant to drive it, yet not going to cost you a bundle every time you turn around.

Good catch, enjoy it.
