Greetings all,
I recently fulfilled my childhood dream and purchased a white 1976 Stingray. It has 55,000 miles, and needs a few cosmetics in the interior, and nothing major mechanically. One of the main reasons I purchased this was to work on this as a project car for my son and I. I'm excited to be a part of this community, and I look forward to learning about my C3.
