I have wanted a Vette for many many years. Picked up an 80 C3 350 with a 4 speed. Black with Silver interior and what appears to be 118K original miles. I live in Northern VA and have a lot of stuff to do to this vette. Looking forward to learning a lot here. The motor appears to be strong and the body and paint are in good shape, as is the frame. It appears this car has been in the garage for most of the past 36 years. First item on the agenda is new Weather Stripping all around.

Welcome to the forum, and congratulations on your C3!
We used to live up your direction in Fairfax, VA. Lots to see and do, but we sure don't miss the weather!
