Does anyone here know why the dash harness for the 81 is so much harder to find than other c3 dash harnesses? Of course, hard to find means big money for a fistful of wires and some GM connectors. I just don't see anything special about it that justifies the price. :confused

I didn't get the sense that he was trashing the dealer. I simply chalk it up as another example of buyer beware.

OFF TOPIC: That pretty chassis is just begging for a pretty motor.

It's interesting, but I'd need to verify the information in the description before making a final call. My gut reaction is to pass on this.

I don't think it is wise to purchase any used car without seeing it and driving it first :ohnoes. Spending a few hundred bucks on plane tickets is cheaper than the headaches you'll face if there are hidden problems. See the car in person. Do a thorough inspection or hire a pro to do it if you...

Congratulations on becoming a Dad. My son is two, and I toyed with selling my 81 shortly after he was born. I ended up keeping it, and I am so glad that I did. My son is growing up to be a major gear head. He loves all cars, but especially sports cars. He loves pointing out all the cars on the...

That's the rub, isn't it? Finding quality people who do quality work isn't easy, and price isn't a direct indicator of quality. We all know that a $28 roller paint job isn't going to be high quality. What we don't know is whether the guy that charges $6,000 is going to be any better than Earl...
