Default New menber from Germay

Hello Vette owners,

my name is Michael, I am from Germany and I am 33 years old.
My Vette is a 1980 C3 from New York. I have she 1 year and 3 month.
I very happy to find it in your nice country.



I am a member in the german corvette forum to, but in germay the people can not help me.

I have a problem,
my t-top mirrowed glass M1131 is broken on the driver's side.
I am looking for a used one in very good/exelent condition.
please help me.

thanks for all,

best regard

Michael

That is a beautiful car.
Welcome!
what is your budget for this repair?

I suggest internet shop on the us side and have it shipped. Granted it is a 19% tax but that may not be that bad if you find a good replacement at a good price in dollars.

Welcome to the Forum and congratulations

When I was in Heidelberg I saw a 78 Pace Car. Not too many Corvettes in Europe. Nice color you got.

Your club should to make a trip to Carlisle PA end of August each year. Biggest Corvette event in the world. Cars & Parts. You can buy a good top there.
www.carlisleevents.com
Click events
If you go and represent your club call Bill Miller and tell him you are coming all the way from Germany. Tell him John in Florida sent you. If not this year maybe next? Make reservations a year ahead of time.

Check out Friendship 7
He's from nearby Luxembourg

Thanks all for the welcome greeting.

@ 6GenVettes: thanks for the recommendation, unfortunately I am this year at the time in Spain.
