It's gone

Well the 2014 I bought in June is gone, sold it Tuesday. Probably going to pick up a 68 roadster if it checks out, going to look at it next week. i've read all the articles about staying away from 68s, if it's still running strong and handling well after 56 years then it can't be that bad. Nice hanging out on this forum while I had the 14.

You're moving from a future classic body style, to a known classic body style! We had a '72 for a long time; hope you enjoy your C3 as much as we enjoyed ours!

Don't be a stranger!

I had a 68 for a few years, I loved it. Easy to find parts, easy to work on, a great car. The 327, 350 HP is a cool car.

Best of luck with the '68 if you do pull the trigger. Hope it all works out for you.

I have always liked the '68. Just, make sure there are no leaks in the vacuum system. That is not a fun problem to hunt down!

I had a 69 L46 Roadster. Loved that car. Drove it all around the country including two Hot Rod Power Tours. From Missouri to Florida to Detroit. Laps around the GM Testing Grounds in Milford, Michigan.
