Tom Not to try to stop a potential sale, but I for one prefer the CD changer if it came with the car. As you know, the window sticker is available for your Corvette thru the museum. If someone is looking for your car when you sell it and really wants as close to OEM as possible, then the CD...

Welcome to the CAC. I have two 02's and they are great cars. Have the 12 disc changer in my rear well of the coupe and so far it has worked fine. Wonder why Tom is selling his? Maybe because he uses an IPOD now instead of a CD. I would think that the OEM changer would be an asset when he...

I use the Professional AC Delco series in my C5 and C6 corvettes without a problem. I used the professional AC in my 1994 without a problem. Don't know how long it's life in the 94 has been becasue I sold the corvette two years ago, but it tested perfectly just before I sold it. A word of...

Congrats on the new ride and you chose the perfect color. You will love driving it and will be amazed on how it handles. I have an 02 Z06 and love driving it - the color is perfect also. Barrett

Since your Corvette experiencing the problems is an 08, I hope you still have a warranty to cover the cost or an extended warranty. Some people don't believe in them, but I put the extended on all my cars, and have had to use them, unfortuntely, but they were a blessing when it came to the...

As has been stated above, habits are hard to break, so yes. I have been known to follow a corvette in my non-Corvette and talk to them when they stop. I keep a Corvette Hat in all of my non-corvette vehicles and put it on when I go over to talk to them. Last Thursday, I was helping in a move...

Hey Bill that's great. Is it an auto or 4 speed? Dan is going to have another cruise in August thru the San Juans for the RMCSC. Hope you can bring it to the cruise. Where did you find it? Locally? Again, it will be great to see you back with the groups. I believe the e-mails will be...

I have heard that vehicles stored outside are a great hotel for rodents and bugs. You may want to put moth balls or something similar in the engine compartment at least to discourage the little guys looking for a home. The rodents will chew on anything, especially wires. Might also help to...

Welcome to the CAC from a fellow C5 Z06 owner. You'll love the car even more once you start driving it around the back roads. Barrett

I removed the console from my 2002 Z06 to replace the Hurst shifter with a factory OEM unit. It is not difficult to do, just takes time. Tools needed are screwdrivers, nut drivers or sockets, and other tools as you may have in your garage. The trim panel over the shifter is one piece from the...

Why would I put recycled motor oil in any of my vehicles, especially my corvettes? Let the enviros ruin their engines. Took several minutes to understand Catbert's second comment. Barrett

I purchased the divider and the carpeted lids for the three open wells from southercarparts last year for my Z06. Made a big difference in the car's interior. Quieter, cooler due to less A/C requirements, and the fit was perfect. The unit comes out quickly if you need the extra space from the...

Welcome to the CAC. Tom was referring to LT4Man and his 96 silver CEC with red interior. If you have any questions concerning the CEC, ask him as he knows everything about the LT4 corvette CEC. You have a great corvette, enjoy it - glad you are driving it with the lid off. Barrett

I put Bridgestone Potenza 760 Sports on my 2002 Z06 and find that they are great. Looked at the others you listed, but decided on the Bridgestone's after Catbert's recommendation. I believe he ran Bridgestone's on his Ron Fellows Z06 before he sold it. Barrett

Let me add my welcome to the CAC and congratulations on the C6. I too have an 08 (red vert) and love it. You will get a thrill each and every time you get in the corvette. I do and I've been with corvettes for 51 years. Barrett

Welcome to the cac. As Jane Ann says, you will love the upgrade to a C5. Barrett

Welcome to the CAC from a former C4 owner (now a C5 and C6 owner). You will like the friendly group here. Nice looking vette - thanks for pics. Barrett

As you are aware, the convertible top deck latches catch on the serrated pins (latch pins) attached to the convertible top rear bow. Once you have the top released from the deck, I would try pushing the top down onto the deck to the first serration to see if it releases from that position. If...

Herb, glad to hear that evrything went okay with your knee replacement and hope the other replacement goes well also. Since your knees are being restored, you can then go to a NKRS meeting and get a top flight award or is that a top kick award?. One question, is the replacement knee RED like...

Glad you have joined the CAC (after all, you did win the best car prize at CF). You fit right in, even with Billy and his dog. Won't be making Fun Fest this year as I will be going to the Corvette Museum on labor day weekend and two trips back east per year are enough. The good thing is that...
