C3 Newb from Maryland
Hello all,
Just wanted to take a moment to say hello. As of today I am the proud owner of a 75 Stingray Coupe. I am 52 and this is a car I have wanted ever since I road in my uncles as a teenager.
The car is mechanically sound and has had a tom of work done to it. As I researched the one piece of advise, more a question that I had to ask myself really was "how much money do I want to have to put into the car?". That said I tried to find a car that had all of the major stuff done and this car is that! There are only two things that I need t do and the major is fix the air conditioning! Second will be cleaning up the interior and making it my own.
Attached are a few pictures of what I brought home.
I look forward t interacting with you all and I thank you up front for any future advise you all give.
Best regards
Darrin

Your '75 looks really nice and welcome to the forum. You might want to post up the pics in the C3 General section.
