Fuck! Decisions, decisions....

Buy them both and have the best of both worlds

I wish. I'm not rich...by far. That's why I have to even buy one that's "barely there", like these, and not fully done. This is probably the only chance I'll ever have to even afford this car.

I'm gonna sell my C4 to send my kid to school...

Well, I thought long and hard about this one.

I'm off to close the deal on the runner. Pics later tonight.

After having completely restored 3 different vehicles myself (1 basketcase), I think you made a smart choice.

Done deal. Shit's in my garage. Here's some pics from the Ad, for however long it's up...

http://cnj.craigslist.org/cto/2154544733.html

Boxes of parts (and the stock flat hood) arrive tomorrow morning, which I will have to find disposition for in my already crowded world...

I own a C3! The car I've wanted since I was 7 years old, and first saw show car pictures of the Mako Shark.

Now my garage smells "right". Old Chevys all smell the same...
