C3 win any prizes for more re-builds than any other?

[G4HKS]

I have to say, whilst the price made my eyes water, the history on what has been done (and how many times) makes great reading.

Surprised Mr Sutton doesn't just keep it - he looks like he has overviewed much of the work for his own interest. What a fantastic looking machine. I do love C3's!

It is indeed a beautiful car in a great colour. Funny how C2s and C3s look best in that shade of blue but later cars have to be red Hope it finds a good home!

With the selling price I think Mr Sutton will be keeping it!!

I think you are right, I dont see the point of re-restoring a restored car, the only thing that made sense was he changed the colour because he didn't like it.

Lovely car and great colour scheme, daft price though. Don't mean to be picky but the whitewalls don't look the right ones. Would look better with the thin white wall band in the middle of the tyre, the ones on the car would be better suited to a caddy or Buick in my opinion.

I think you will find the description is written in the first person because it will have been copied from an email the previous owner wrote. I don't think Clive has any time or energy invested in this car. It does look lovely, but I do like a little bit of originality. At half the money it would be a genuine proposition......

Martin if your looking for a C3 Scott from CK car was up for sale not to long ago on here, beautiful car in this colour for half the money, if your seriously looking that would be the car for you, or ?? You could give me stupid money for mine so I can start saving for my viper GTS ????

I will have a C3 one day I am sure but I sure won't be spending that sort of money on one - nor indeed 1/2 that much. As Mitch says, you can't beat "originality" and that is something the lovely blue number advertised has not got.

Here's a another nice example. Priced at approx 29k and all original.



A good site for quality cars.

Hmmm.. People do ask strong money for good examples. Wonder if they actually achieve it?

I think the C3 is the definitive shape of all the Vettes - real Coke bottle design.

Now this is an example of a good immaculate "original" car at sensible money. The current owner has a bit of history too so I see.

I saw this too very nice!! It is funny with prices, people have money to buy Vettes at the right price. Some of the crazy C5 prices at the moment the cars still sit around.
