    Towing and Driving in snow/ice

    93Rubie, I figured that you could tell that my remark was in jest by calling you a young whippersnapper. You are exactly correct about the vast majority of Corvette owners. We are mostly grey haired, fat white guys. Just go to any Corvette gig, and that is what you will see. I actually love to...

    Towing and Driving in snow/ice

    Corvette_diva Slovetteman has the right idea, and Hib gave you good advice. So if this guy is worth it, and you must, go ahead and move to Wisconsin. Don't sell the vette. I lived in Oconomowoc from '04 to '06. I had a 93 and my wife drove a 92. We simply parked them through the winter and snow...

    How many miles? So, am I nuts?

    LT4man, So you are saying that at the time of the opti recall in 92, that the dealer would simply drill a hole into the bottom of the opti and attach some tubing and that kept the water out, and allowed the unit to breath? I thought the warrenty fix was simply installed another opti that had...

    How many miles? So, am I nuts?

    My Ruby had 103,000 when I sold it to my brother (6 speed coupe). He has put very few miles on it in 2 years. I plan on talking him into a C5 so that I can buy it back. My 92 Z07 has 126,000 and is my wife's daily driver and our traveling car (automatic coupe). In fact I just washed a weeks...

    Hood cable/latch is broken - Dealer is no help

    Here is a link to Ecklers emergency hood release. Corvette Emergency Hood Release Cable, 1984-1996 I have seen these emergency release cables on several C4s. Remember, your C4 is 14 to 26 years old. What do you think is the life span of the factory hood release cable? Joshwilson3 has the right...

    I hate the color Polo Green

    Evolution1980 has it right. The green/tan combo is near the top of my list, and I have had 2 bright reds and one Ruby Red. Hope my next one is green. (or blue, or silver, or black, or white).

    Question: Is someone taking info on Z07 cars.

    Toms01 Z07 database Toms01 is the person who is working on a Z07 database. I'm sure he will see this thread and will reply. I am guessing that western Kansas received a ton of snow yesterday, so he should respond after digging a tunnel to his shop.
