You know you own a C3 when...

...You lock the doors with the t-tops off.

...You CAN tell the difference between a '68 and a '69.

...You had an easier time breaking up with your girlfriend, than selling your Corvette.

...You swear chevy 350 is the greatest piece of technology ever invented.

...You refer to mustangs as "rustangs".

...You rip the fuel injected electronic "junk" out and opt for the "superior" carburator.

..."Corvette Summer" is your favorite movie.

...1967 was the best year of your life, and you weren't even alive.

...you hear the word "rally", you think of rims.

...Your dream car's engine is going to cost more than the car.

...You think arrowheads and bowties go together like PB and jelly.

...You consider the year 1977 a turning point in your life.

...You deny the fact the Chevy made TURBO Vettes, but you secretly want one.

...Cobra isn't just a mustang, but an ancronym for Cars Owned By Retarded not a very nice persons.

...Dodges' smell funny.

...You get ****ed when someone calls your majestic glass plastic fantastic
...Your alphabet isn't A-Z,but C1 thru C6
...Your idea of art is a crossed-flags logo on the side & L48 or L82 on your hood.

...To you, 'buy low, sell high' means buying a Corvette before 2002, then selling it after 2002.

...You know that hump in between your seats all too well.

...FWD makes NO sense to you.

...Your life fell into a spril of depression, drugs, and drunkeness after you sold your last Corvette
...You think Viper owners are jealous of your "real" car.

...Your five basic food groups are Mustangs, Civics, Challengers, Eclipses, and Hondas

...You still call your 1974 Corvette, a "new" car.

:D
 
You know you own a C3 when...

...You lock the doors with the t-tops off.
Or you can't unlock a door from the outside...

...You CAN tell the difference between a '68 and a '69.
You can tell a knock off emblem from NOS

...You had an easier time breaking up with your girlfriend, than selling your Corvette.
You will your car to a family member with the understandingthat the car will be enjoyed so as you are remebered.

...You swear chevy 350 is the greatest piece of technology ever invented.
And you spend as much time marveling at your car with the hood open as you do driving it.

...You refer to mustangs as "rustangs".
And you see one approaching the stoplight next to you and you laugh- and your wife asks what is so funny.

...You rip the fuel injected electronic "junk" out and opt for the "superior" carburator.
Or you spend several thousand dollars with a resto mod LS1/LT1/TPI swap with late model tranny.

..."Corvette Summer" is your favorite movie.
Followed by that obscure NBC show "Stingray"

...1967 was the best year of your life, and you weren't even alive.
And 1983 was the worst year...

...you hear the word "rally", you think of rims.
You hear the words "swap meet" and you go searching in vain through aisles of beany-babies looking for the one shmoe who is selling a tri-power set up at clearly the WRONG swap meet.

...Your dream car's engine is going to cost more than the car.
And you have to finance it.

...You think arrowheads and bowties go together like PB and jelly.
And a Ford motor in a chevy is BLASPHEMY.

...You consider the year 1977 a turning point in your life.
And the 76's Vega steering wheel looks okay to you.

...You deny the fact the Chevy made TURBO Vettes, but you secretly want one.
That one being a Duntov turbo.

...Cobra isn't just a mustang, but an ancronym for Cars Owned By Retarded not a very nice persons.
And you make your children confess to the priest all of their sins- nlike looking lustfully at an '06 SRT8 Charger.

...Dodges' smell funny.
Fords are worse.

...You get ****ed when someone calls your majestic glass plastic fantastic
And any reference to your Vette as a Revel Plastic Model spurs a fight.

...Your alphabet isn't A-Z,but C1 thru C6
And you can only add if the letters "hp" are after numbers.

...Your idea of art is a crossed-flags logo on the side & L48 or L82 on your hood.
Or you have thought about mounting a bumper with tail lights on your wall.

...To you, 'buy low, sell high' means buying a Corvette before 2002, then selling it after 2002.
Or you just plan to own it till you die.

...You know that hump in between your seats all too well.
And you chastise at anyone for leaning on it, etc.

...FWD makes NO sense to you.
Nor does "transverse mounted engine".

...Your life fell into a spril of depression, drugs, and drunkeness after you sold your last Corvette
And your family still questions the reason.

...You think Viper owners are jealous of your "real" car.
And you tell them... LITERALLY

...Your five basic food groups are Mustangs, Civics, Challengers, Eclipses, and Hondas
And you make every effort to EAT them regularly.

...You still call your 1974 Corvette, a "new" car.
And you post pictures of "sad" Vettes that need "rehabilitation".

That was a really good laugh, mainly because the majority apply to me.

Thanks for posting that.
