Iris blue...looks silver to me, or am I color blind?

Anyway, mine is a collector edition, and would be worth much more down the road then a 90,,,sure you dont want to take me up on this? Would make you a really good deal!

About your radio. I sent my 1988 Bose to a Dr. in Texas. The radio would work for a little while then cut out. The clock worked fine.

When I get the unit back (it was mine I had the serial number and markings written down) the radio did the same thing AND now the clock doesn't hold time.

I called this guy but no answer. I did get e-mail answers and I did get my money back. I was told by the Dr. that the chip that controlled the clock was very hard to get. I then asked why steal mine? I didn't get an answer to that question.

So if you're Dr. is also in Texas.. good luck!

I'm going to add a "hidden" radio so I have tunes and the interior remains OEM.

Was it Dr. Dons you sent it to, or someone else?

Take your time to get just the right Vette for you. I'm sure there are a number of very good ones available.

You might also check with the Corvette clubs near by as well.

Good luck.

I am a C3 lover myself. Have now had 5 of them at the ripe old age of 28, and I still own my first and last one (76 coupe and 68 roadster). I really enjoy them, and you might look at one of those?
