    (Picture Thread) Show your C4 to the world!

    Figured I'd post up three of the four C4's I've been fortunate enough to play with..The '86, '93, and now, my favorite, the LT4..:thumb

    I've lived on Craigslist for the last month.:rotfl If this weather will ever let up so I can make it to Dallas, I closed a deal on a red LT4 car last night. Just gotta go get it. 94k miles, it's sweet....Has some suspension modes, GS wheels, and black ralley stripes.

    Well, you definitely got a beauty. I'm hoping that I've found one to purchase within the next week if this stupid weather let's up. When I get mine we will have to meet up and find some twisties to enjoy....maybe a lunch run to somewhere like mountain view. ...

    News: Corvettes @ Eureka Springs

    I hope to have my '93 rescue project there, as long as you guys with beautiful cars don't snub me too bad,:D. Don't know if I'll be able to make the entire event, but I'm planning on that Friday night/ Saturday anyway. It's only 2 hours or less from me, and I've got at least three C4 locals -...

    Put some wheels on the '93 today!

    Yes, they are. The only downside I can find about them is that the purchase price of the wheels ALMOST put me over $3k in the car,lol.:D Still lots of work to do (carpet, interior work, headlight bushings and eventually a paint job) but I'm pretty happy with a cheap Lt1 driver that's at least a...

    Put some wheels on the '93 today!

    It was time to put new tires on the front of my '93 "rescue project". The previous owner had put a new set of rear tires on, but had not replaced the fronts. I went to the local tire shop to check their prices, as I would prefer to patronize the local businesses. While there, I decided to price...

    A little advice for a C4 guy, please.

    Yeah, I think the gun affliction is a direct result of my profession:rotfl As far as the C5 goes, I've got a friend that got exactly what I want, a '01 six speed car with Z06 wheels , black and mileage in the 80's, that tells me he's considering upgrading to a new grand sport or ZR-1. If he does...

    A little advice for a C4 guy, please.

    Thanks, guys. To be honest, I'm pretty happy with my C4, it's paid for and does all I need it too. The C5 was just very attractive to me because of the price. That, and they're a really nice civilized car that my wife would probably drive- she thinks the C4 is too loud, and too hard to get in...

    A little advice for a C4 guy, please.

    Hello, I was hoping that some of you fine C5 folks could spare a little advice for a C4 guy. While I really have not thought much about buying a C5, I ran into a guy locally that has a '97 auto coupe that he's considering selling. He's the original owner and appears to be fanatical about the...

    Help for C4 owner

    Not alot of info to work with, but when I had the same problem with my '93, ten minutes with a water hose and low pressure water flushing the heater core both ways took care of it. Had quite a bit of "gunk" run out, just ran the water 'til it ran clear, buttoned everything back up, topped off...

    Help! Unusual tranny issue, '93 /auto/LT1

    I had something unusual happen when I drove the '93 a while ago. First some background- the car is a '93 LT1 automatic coupe with 176k miles on her. I don't know much about its service history, other than the young man that I rescued her from had used her as a daily and didn't seem to be...

    (Picture Thread) Show your C4 to the world!

    Thanks, LindenBob. I wish my '93 looked half as good as yours. I've been debating what wheels to put on mine and have been having difficulty deciding between Zr1's, chromed zr1's or chromed sawblades. After seeing yours, I gotta say I'm leaning towards the chromed sawblades!:thumb

    (Picture Thread) Show your C4 to the world!

    Here's a small pic of my work in progress '93 coupe. Don't be too judgemental, please. It had been used as a daily driver for a young man that really didn't give it the respect and care it deserved. It's got just over 176k on it and really seems to appreciate me getting it. I bought it because...
