Turn-Key C3 Weekend Cruiser

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for a solid, turn-key C3 to drive and enjoy. Not looking for a collector car, matching numbers, rare options, or a show car.

No birdcage/frame rust
Working A/C
Well-maintained / mechanically sorted
Clean, usable interior and exterior
Ready to drive and enjoy

My preference would be an L82 or L83 (you heard that right) but I'm also be interested in a 77-81 L48. I’m open to automatic or manual.

I don’t plan to do much more than cosmetic mods and a side exhaust. Just looking for a reliable weekend cruiser / errand car that makes a little noise.

Located in Kansas. Budget is 9-14K, depending location and car.

Thank you!

The dreaded crossfire 🥲. Still looking for the right C3 which is surprisingly hard to find!
