Hey Guys (gals). I'm new to the forum and I have an 80 C3 L48. Bought it to flip but I'm really liking it. I'm a Ford guy (no hard feelings). Car was sitting for 10 years, brought it home and I cant get the drivers door open. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Dwnissen855 don't feel bad, I am a Ford guy also but I love my Vette. Wait till you start driving yours, you are going to get the "stupid smile" on your face and it won't come off.

Welcome from a C3 owner, any pictures? I have a 1970 Mustang (428CJ) that I bought a decade ago to flip, but just liked it too much to sell it. So I've been building to what I like.
