Vette(s): 1978 L82 4spd coupe/3.73:1 Differential Ratio /Black with Yellow Pinstripes and Black Interior/AC/Tilt/AM FM Stereo/Pretty Much Stock

I didn't get it... I am thinking about it. The seller told me to make sure to get what I wanted the first time and not make the mistakes I did. Tell me when you would find someone like that now a day.

I am going to look at Fun Fest and Jefferson up here has a big swap meet I want to take a look in to the last weekend of the month. I didn't say no to the car, I just said I was going to think about it.

I did take it for a real test drive and had it up to 95 mph on the freeway.

Vette(s): 1976 Corvette Stingray L-48 Automatic Black

Here is my 2 cents worth. When I set out to get a C3 I was focused on an automatic and the only colors I really did not want were Red or Green. I really like Blue but knew it would be hard to find. When I did see my Vette for the first time I did say to myself "Wow" and smiled. As far as Black yes it will show dust very easy but if you keep it waxed and use a duster along with a lite car cover when you park it in your garage it's not really not an issue. I have found even with my old paint job people really are drawn to a Black Vette. You really will know when you see your C3 for the first time, you will feel it!
