Can one of you guys help me here and tell me if this is a 36 or a 44. The guy said has 2 bolts on the top which would be a 44 but I thought I would give this a try to see if you can tell by looking.

It appears to be from an earlier gen. Notice the multiple springs and no place to bolt a c-beam.

Yeah, I got my answer on CF. Good observation, it's from a C3. Too bad too, the guy claimed he didn't know what it came out of but advertised it as an 86 Corvette rearend. I was hoping for a nice find, $200. Something tells me he knew more than he let on.

I bug the heck out of the wifey about getting a C3. She always tells me to sell the C4 first. I've always wanted a C3 because when I was a kid that was what a Corvette was. That gen may not be the best but to me it's still one of the coolest.

No argument from me on that. Still would like a chrome bumper one, just would need a bigger garage

Yeah, that POS looks like he drank a bottle of Jacks, then took a Saws-all, a couple of crowbars and a few mallets to construct that!!!

All it needs is a 1" black stripe at the top of the door.....it could be the Pace Car for the Cucamonga 500

Pete, lets see the side view. I'll bet it has some snazzy red caliper covers too.

OK, maybe 1" is an exaggeration....but 1/8" wouldn't be.
