Judging by the weather forecast im planning on testing out, for the first time, how leaky my C3 is in the rain tomorrow.

Just bring a brollie with you ! And don`t fall in the canal either we you get to the pub or you will get even wetter !

As per my post on Corvettes with attitude, I plan on turning the headlights round to see what it looks like from the front view with the headlights open.

Well, had a go of the old lights, it’s playing at being a pirate.

The car is 'winking' at you - almost saying "you expected me to open-up both at once didn't you? - just reminding you who's in control here"!

4 C3`s and 2 C7`s from the BBCN Region ventured forth today to the waterfront of the Grand Union Canal for Sunday Lunch at the Globe Inn at Linslade . Plenty of boats moored up but no sign of any pirates . It was great to meet up with club members old a new again .

What idiot put a 454 plate on an 81?... oh, that would be me.
Great to meet Mr & Mrs Chuffer today.

 

[Chuffer]

Great you meet you and Rhiannon today too . Looking forward to Americana Day at Sharnbrook now .

Anybody got a picture of the tool to remove the window trim, please ??
81 style
Cheers

Yesterday I did the 2 most important things a Corvette owner should do.................drove it and washed it. Looking at the forecast I will be driving it today, tomorrow and Monday.

 

[maxuk15]

Found said tool at Halfords for window trim removal !!!!
And it works on a quick trial...
So the trim will be coming off and repainted black as it's not anything but brushed stainless steel (not correct for an 81)

 

[Chuffer]

Been washing and polishing and the Vette is all gussied up ready for Petrolheadonisms ` Americana ` Show at Sharnbrook on Monday . Should be wall to wall sunshine all the way .

 

[HJG]

Got mine out to its first CCCUK meet in East Sussex and then took it to Retro Rides at Goodwood for the weekend. Managed to get all my camping gear in it somehow!

 

[Derek Nicol]

Planning on taking mine to the Sharnbrook to look at Corvettes in the sunshine.. it will probably look something like this...


Just realised, i dont think theres going to be a single C2 there.

 

[Derek Nicol]

Back now.. you would have thought that the owner of this C3 would have cleaned it before going to a show
