C3s for sale
« on: February 22, 2013, 02:13:27 PM »
Just looking around today to see whats for sale
Its seem there are more vettes of the C3 variety for sale here in australia than in the US
And quite a lot of them are gold  plated.
one off etc etc
most were for sale last time I did this look around some months back

Not to many C2 available  a nice 65-67 would look good  parked in the back yard

A C2 would be nice indeed. I regularly check Ebay and other US sites for Vettes for sale and if anything C3 have come down or are just plateued. I saw a very nice restored black on black 69, red walls 350/350 looked stunning, no bids $27K yet check out prices for C2's and you'll pay $45K+ for a car with no matching numbers and had a crate motor slotted in.
   As much as I want another Vette owning a C2 is still to far away at this point.

Ditto 69
I spend A bit of time looking to see what is available
I have been checking out the C2s 66/67
And the better vehicles are all up there price wise
Just have to  keep looking until the asking price and the bank account at compatible

X2 on the 67BB. I've got a 402BB hiding in the shed just waiting for a car to put it in.

Check out this 65 on Ebay, lovin the green.

On a different note but still a GM car this Trans am looks like good value. I would prefer the original snowflake wheels but still looks good.
