I miss it already but after the fly wheel went and it got 3 or 4 oil leaks and a coolant leak. I decided that no amount of money I will ever had would ever make that car right. I went through hell with that car and wasted alot of money, only to turn around and sell it for 3700.00. I wanted to get another vette but C5's cost to much and had way to many miles on them for anything in the 20k range. So I got a 00 SS 6spd Camaro for 15k with 27k miles on it, with SLP headers, Ram air & KN, MAF Translator, and TTP tuned, along with a new Thunder cam and a few other slight mods. I really hope to get back into c3's again one day.
 
Re:

Sorry to hear the sad news- I went thru the same with my '81, back in 1993.. The tranny was having issues, the brain had already been replaced once, and it liked to overheat on me.. But I still miss it.. She was my 1st Vette..

Runs great but its got alot of noise. Like slight ticking and loud wheel noise, but from my understanding this is normal of the F-bodies correct?
 
Chev what did you buy in place of your old 81?
