    Was anyone expecting more

    I am just as happy owning my Stingray. If I had money to dump, I would dump it in my old shark before purchasing a new one.

    Curb takes a bite outta my Shark

    Ron, I am guessing its an after market spoiler. I have only had the car for 2 months, and the small pieces that were hanging on crumbled away with a touch. Rick, I totally felt like :hb . I didn't even want to tell my husband when I got home, but since I knew he would eventually see it, I...

    Curb takes a bite outta my Shark

    I have a front spoiler on my 75 Stingray, and went spoiler bashing last Friday. It is breaking my heart even writing about this. I had really poor judgment on a curb and it took a bite outta the spoiler. It's sorta "V" shaped and only about an inch long at it's biggest point. It cannot be...

    69myway

    Whoooa, that one is a heartbreaker. :( Looks like something my husband would want to purchase as a project car, to keep his other 4 unfinished project cars company. :eyerole

    New C5 Owner - Beginning of a nightmare?

    Try Corvette Express in Vacaville (707) 446-8595. I have had very good luck with obtaining parts, etc. from them. They do complete restorations, parts, service, etc. Talk to Joe (the owner) or Vinnie. Even though Vacaville is a little of of the "Bay Area" it is worth the drive. I am about...

    Loose mirrors?

    That must be it. They look good on the car, but like I said, are completely worthless. I do, however, have a great view of my door handle.

    Loose mirrors?

    I don't believe my mirrors are stock. They look nothing like pictures of other Stingray mirrors I have seen. I guess they are more "California" style mirrors like the ones found on an 80's Firebird (I guess). They are totally worthless though. All I can see is wheel well. I was going to...

    Seatbelt light won't go off

    My "Fasten Seatbelt" light will not go off, even when both seat belts are securely fastened. What do I do to turn off this light?

    Do you think Corvette will adopt a retro look

    With the retro looks of the PT Cruiser, Prowler, and now the port-hole Thunderbird, my question is does anybody think Corvette will produce a car with a retro look from one of the first three generations? Would you like to see this happen, and which generation would you like to see them...

    Ignition lock problem!!

    Curiosity was killing me so I went to try mine. My wheel does not "lock" in any position (neutral or reverse). My key will not come out unless it is in the "lock" position.

    Where else will she leak?

    A 10w40 or 20w50 should work fine in the Texas heat to maintain its viscosity.

    Where else will she leak?

    When I got mine it was leaking from the gasket around the neck of the oil pan. It was old and frayed and from the car sitting so low the pan was pretty banged up, so we just replaced the whole thing.

    antenna (a new problem?)

    Installed Petronix last weekend..

    Thanks Jack. I just feel kinda bad that my new purchase has put his '57 Chevy, '32 Coupe, '36 Dodge, a '77 Harley and his Alpine on the back burner. To me, whatever it takes is well worth it, and I wouldn't trade the opportunity to own such a beautiful car.

    Installed Petronix last weekend..

    Oh please don't tell me this is what I have to look forward to :( I have only had the car for 4 weeks, and so far we have had to replace and "fine tune" a few things. Husband is at home right now replacing the rear parking brake shoes and springs, and has had to make 2 trips today to the...

    Pearl paint job

    That is exactly how my paint job was done...white paint, then pearl over it. The guy who sold me the car is a painter as well, so he did a really sharp job.
