PERSONAL STORY
This Corvette spent its first years at home and came to Germany in 1989 and has had two owners since then.
They made some adaptations, typical for Corvette drivers. The C3 was given an electronic ignition and an intake manifold with a carburetor from Edelbrock.
Even if you like to feel the road, the better-sprung Koni shock absorbers were installed and to stay dry in a light rain, it got a new top in cream white.
