    "Blue Devil" Corvette - Front or Mid-Engine?

    That is the point, it is an IMAGE CAR. I know my driving skills are limited. I don't try to race everything on the road. But this is how the GT makes me feel. Hands down it looks, IMHO, a whole lot neater than the C-6. As for them being kept in the garage, I see them on the road quite often...

    "Blue Devil" Corvette - Front or Mid-Engine?

    Corvette -Front of Mid Engine I do not think this is a money issue. It is a matter of market placement and preception. You and I are impressed with the Ford GT. I think the Blue Devil is something other than the New Z06. Why not stretch the envelope. If that is true, mid-engine seems the way...

    "Blue Devil" Corvette - Front or Mid-Engine?

    I vote for mid-engine. Walk around a Ford-GT and you start to tighten your racing gloves. This is about marketing strategy. I am a big Corvette fan. But have me pick a C-6, a Viper or a Ford GT for my garage, it would be the GT hands down. NowI will go hide. MCMLVII

    Find any great roads ??

    Dragon' Tail We live near Detroit and have relatives in South Carolina. We visited them over Thanksgiving. We took the "RED' car. It rained all day Wednesday. I-75 was loaded with trucks. Not a lot of fun. At Knoxville we turned off to excape the maddness. We took the "Dragon" the rest of...

    Find any great roads ??

    Loch Ness Monsters In July we spent two weeks touring Scotland. The roads were like driving a car in a video game, curves and hills everywhere. Asked how to improve the trip, I said "Do it in the "Red Car". While at Loch Ness we ran into a Corvette Club from Sweden. Perhaps someone from that...

    2007 Corvette

    We sell tooling to a guy who builds blocks and cams for GM. This is where we heard of the HP & MPG objective. Someone out there seems confident that they can pull it off.

    Cool Commercial!

    Dream commercial GM pulled the "Dream Commercial". Sends wrong message to kids. I didn't care for the ad. Who were they trying to sell to? Nice gimicks, but would this bring you into a dealership? Not!

    The're like belly buttons

    Yes it does. My route to the office is in the opposite direction of the traffic flow into the Milford proving grounds. In the morning I see all the cars entering, in the evening, all the cars exiting. You might call it a target rich enviroment. See a lot of neat stuff. Bob

    The're like belly buttons

    It seems that everyone has one. I have seen at least 10 C-6's on the road so far. Yesterday I saw the convertible. It was a little disappointing. The top was up. The car was white with a black top and the five spoke wheels were black. This may have had an influance on the look. I have seen...

    Saw two C-6s on the road yesterday.

    I live near the Milford Proving Grounds. Yesterday on the way home from work I saw two C-6s. One Black, One yellow. Observations: They look smaller than the C-5, maybe a better discription would be "more compact". The colors on both cars was outstanding. It may have been the time of day...

    [Wanted] 61 Vette engine

    I have a complete '61 -CS motor. As I recall it has a Jan 61 build date. Do not have the FI unit for it. Took it out of my '57 to put in the correct block with matching dates.

    1958 hubcaps

    I lost mine 3 times after switching to radials. Always my left front wheel. After bending the inner rims they were difficult to get on straight, but it did work. I have not lost a cap in over a year. I do monitor the fit between the cap and the rim on a regular basis since I still do not trust...
