Default Any C3 lovers in the PNW?

Just curious if there are any C3 lovers here in the great Pacific NorthWest?
Might be fun to get together!

Ive always thought a multi generational photo would be fun too. We have a C3,C5, and C6. Maybe folks would be interested?

Scott,
can’t believe no one has responded to your suggestion. It would be cool to meet up and take some photos. We will need some cooperation from Mother Nature though. Still waiting patiently for the good weather.

First, thank you for acknowledgment.
The incredibly warm PNW group surprised me with a lack of response!

Count me in, at least as an admirer. The early chrome bumper cars are stunning if left close to original. Too bad that had to suffer the slings and arrows of our Gummint around 1972 and GM overreacted.

They are starting to come into their own more and more as a collectible. I'm glad.

At any show, I will always stop to admire an early small block C3.

Ok folks,
weather is nice here in the PNW!
My 69 is running great,

Anyone interested in a get together?
we have a red/black C3 an C6. ( the C5 has moved on )

Might be be fun to gather somewhere nice and take pictures. I like anything near water. However I am very open to ideas.
Maybe a run some somewhere? Maybe a lunch greet?

weekends are getting committed and weather is limited.

Any serious interest and I’ll toss dates and ideas. We are in the North end.

I run with a Nikon D500 and various lens.

Scott

I think the best way to accomplish this is to pick date, place, and event and see who is interested. I know I would be. I have a C4 and a C5. Time is getting somewhat limited as we are going on the Corvette Caravan on August 22. (For all you burglars there will be 2 adults and 2 dogs staying at the house while we are gone,) Put the info out on the forum and you will probably get quite a few responses. We got about 14 people at out GTG in Puyallup this spring.

I have a C5!!! I am super busy this year though O_o

I have a Chrysler 300, a Landcruiser, and a panel van I still have on the books to paint, as well as a few photography sessions as well. I'm shooting Nofakejake's ZR1 sometime this summer, as well as doing a contracted professional photo shoot with a private collector's McLaren P1, and his wife's new Ford GT plus, my water heater broke this week Lord only knows what my wife has planned for us, I never do

I will try and make whatever date is picked, but no promises. I want to. I want to go, I'll even pull my wing so I won't stick out :P

My first three Corvettes were C3's. A '70 coupe with a 454 and 4-speed, then a '73 coupe with L82 and 4-speed and finally a '78 coupe also with an L82 and 4-speed. All were fun cars and I would like to have another '70 big-block car again. But with Power Steering next time...
