Greetings from Lithuania!
Hi all!
My name is Eimantas and i'm new member of this forum.
So, I'm located in Lithuania, Vilnius (Eastern Europe). I can imagine you checking map right now where Lithuania is
I have bought 1977 C3 on AUG 2018 from Copart, run and drive, car arrived on OCT, just before my 34th birthday - nice gift for myself. I was dreaming about C3 since i saw it for the first time when i was 16 - i can remember long silver hood slowly sneaking around garage where my father's Mitsubishi was parked and that beautiful V8 sound
And now - welcome to reality - i have to fix frame, as car was damaged on rear part on driver side and frame is bent a little. Last weekend together with a friend i have removed body from the frame, and now i'm looking for body repair shop, who can help fixing frame geometry. Not an easy task in Lithuania, huh.
I have no complaints other than that - everything iwas working, car was running prior to removal, so i hope to finish repair in next 1,5 month and start summer season properly "dressed"
I'm sure, that i will have tons of question, but i will keep them for other forum threads
