Hmmm... the '93 I bought in December is still stored 800 miles away, (I haven't even seen it yet) but when it finally gets here I think I'll be doing the following: Change oil Shop for new tires Replace some of the weatherstripping Fix the bracket near the battery (this was described to me...

Get a good old cheap spring type mousetrap. Lay it on the floor of the car with a dab of peanut butter on it. Put a towel under it in case there is a little blood splatter :D. Took one night to get one of the little buggers that way in my old GTO. Rich

Wow! Absolutely great pics of a beautiful car! :thumb

I can't seem to edit my sig pic- something goofy happened with it back when I first did it with my old '66 (double photo) and I can't get it changed to my '93 now. If one of the mods could help, I'd appreciate it. Thanks- Rich

Hey, by no means new to the site or Corvettes, but I sold my '66 a while back (and haven't posted much lately) and I just gave myself a nice Christmas present! On Saturday I did a long distance deal and bought a Ruby Red 40th with only 35,000 miles on the clock. It's in pretty nice shape...

I found a core to rebuild for my '66, or I would have considered this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1966-Corvette-Holley-Carb-Carburetor-NEW-0-3367-3884505_W0QQitemZ150190283905QQihZ005QQcategoryZ34203QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

My '66 was bought off the lot in August of '66, stripped down and SCCA roadraced for 3 years:

Here's a shot of the '71 LT-1 vert I owned up until last year. I hopefully am picking up a '72 LT-1 vert project on Friday.

Stan I've always had a soft spot for the Cragars myself. I sold my SWC a couple of months ago, but guess what I had on it? :D

My son had his high school graduation pictures taken a couple of weeks ago and he wanted to have a couple of shots taken with the '66. Here's one shot:

4-speed or auto?

I agree. I had my '71 LT-1 vert from 1993 until last March when I sold it. These cars were repeatedly listed as one of "The Hot Five, Top 10, Next Big Thing", whatever, throughout the time I owned it. That never happened. Of course, now that I've sold it, it happens. :hb If anyone anyone wants...

I think he's refering to the "readytofix" website. Always the same cars pictured, it seems. I don't remember if it is that site, but one of them requires you to pay a membership fee to actually view the car ads. :eyerole Rich

I would also like to know more about the wagon. Thanks- Rich
