Lovely car! I had an '81 C3 last year for a few months was great fun but the thought of putting it through an MOT scared me.
I have a haynes manual and some new weatherstrips kicking around if you need anything.
Car was great fun, got about 11MPG with a 600cfm double pumper carb, fine as a fun-car but I actually ran mine every day and it started to get a
little too costly.
Putting your foot down and letting it kick down 2 gears is brilliant fun but you can actually see the petrol gauge move when you are doing it. My G/F
hated the acceleration, I loved it.
Looks like you've got a pretty good one there, seems to be in pretty good nick externally - TBH i think 195bhp is pretty good for a vette, they
really strangled them in the later years - down to 150 by the end, but you should be able to get that up easily getting rid of the emissions crap, a
decent inlet, carb, headers and igntition setup.
Hope you enjoy it!
Next to my corvette
