After a few months of looking at other C3's, I finally found one I liked. 1981 coupe, looks good, runs good, mechanically sound, 67K miles, $18K. It's not perfect, it has a few blemishes on the finish, but I can live with that.

She's a beauty! A couple years earlier and she would be my favorite shark. The recessed back window is still my dream vette.

NICE car.......reminds me of my car when I bought it, damn near same color, maybe just slightly lighter shade, but damn close to yours......but after about 1.5 decades, some SOB did it in, and so I decided to change colors.....long as I had to paint the car......
