Default MD, LA, NC Checking In!!!
I live in Maryland, used to live in Louisiana, born and raised in North Carolina. I have a green 79 C3, not popular or expensive but turns heads everywhere I go. I fix airplanes for a living and love it, airplanes are cool. I modified the dash of my C3 and wanted to share what I did so that's why I created an account.

Just looked and you do have a T roof. They had a radio system out I. The late 70s early 80s called the cockpit. Very cool and mounted to the center panel. Might be an option. Never saw one where I cruised only in the mags.
