    Merry Christmas

    A bit late, but Merry Christmas to all... And to all a Corvette night! ;) Oh, and I hope nobody shot their eye out...! ;)

    What do you think they will find inside??

    Hello my baby, hello my honey... I hope it's something other than a warning about the Redcoats coming... ;) Maybe Paul has some sage advice on how we can rid our country of an imperialistic president...? :(

    Day Light is RARE

    I feel your pain, Bud. While I put more than 7.8 miles on my C5's this year, it's probably still less than 1,000 -- combined... :( Just can't seem to stay in the same place as my Vettes for any length of time... I'm heading back to Kentucky for a year, to work a follow-on flight test program...

    VH-1 Prize Collection To Find New Life

    Some of you may remember, as I do, of a VH-1 sweepstakes in which one person was awarded a collection containing every model year of the Corvette between 1953 and 1989. Those cars have, apparently, been gathering dust -- quite literally -- in New York for the past 25 years, neglected by their...

    Who Goes By The DIC Oil Life Monitor?

    A lot of manufacturers specify yearly oil changes if the oil monitoring system doesn't count down oil 'life' first. But what drives that...? On these very-low-mileage (between 1-2k miles per year) vehicles, does synthetic oil degrade by just sitting -- unused -- in the crankcase...? I've...

    All Carbon Fiber C5 Corvette Shaves 287LBS From Car

    They could have saved even more weight if they'd left off the ugly ground effects and rear spoiler... ;) Like a wise man once said: the last 10% (in this case, of weight savings) costs 90%... They can keep it...

    My Corvette Heartbreak

    Sorry to meet under these unfortunate circumstances, but welcome! :w Part of my advice in looking for a cause for this would be to post your plight in the C4 area of the forum; the folks that hang around there might have better insight into this kind of catastrophic engine failure. Without...

    Question: Car Show

    Lots of Corvette folks -- including myself -- will be heading to Carlisle, PA (for Corvettes at Carlisle) that weekend... Pretty stiff competition for your local event, but good luck with it! Any gathering of Corvettes is worth attending! :w

    Aztec Gold, Anyone...?

    Now listed as "SOLD." Barely took more than a week to sell; wonder if it went to someone attending the recent Corvette Invasion of the Oasis...? And I wonder if the dealer got full asking price ($34,995)...?

    History check

    Kelley Blue Book is generally considered the guide for car values on this side of the pond. Follow the link, put in the particulars for the vehicle in question, and you should get an answer -- in U.S. dollars, at least.

    Corvette Invasion Of The Oasis (19 July 2014)

    Oh, neglected to mention: Corvette World of Houston will purportedly have Aztec Gold C5 #2 there for interested buyers. Personal disclaimer: I have not confirmed that information with Corvette World, so treat it as hearsay.

    Aztec Gold, Anyone...?

    Yeah, for obvious reasons that's why I'm curious...

    Aztec Gold, Anyone...?

    Sequence #2 For Sale The second Aztec Gold car build is for sale -- in case anyone is interested. Asking price seems a bit on the high side to me; but if that's what they'll bring now, I guess that I ultimately made a good buy on #15... :thumb

    Corvette Invasion Of The Oasis (19 July 2014)

    Just learned of this myself yesterday: The annual Corvette Invasion of the Oasis (on Lake Travis, outside of Austin, TX) will be happening on 19 July. I don't have a lot of details myself, and the main source of information seems to be on Facebook (which I can't access at the moment), but I...

    Important! Independence Day - What are you doing?

    Yeah, but you had July 1st off, didn't you...? Amen! That reminds me of something else that I now do around the Fourth: watch the movie Gettysburg. I you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it. It's long, but it's very engaging, supposed to be historically accurate, and well-cast. Frankly...

    Important! Independence Day - What are you doing?

    Probably mainly working around my house in San Antonio... Not sure if it will happen today, but sometime this weekend I plan to do something wholly American: like drive my Corvette! And if I'm lucky, I'll be able to put the top down...! And if I'm really lucky, I'll find a pretty girl to...

    The Duke boys upgrade...

    The most glaring flaw with that production was that Daisy did not appear once (save for a glancing shot of a billboard advertisement for her Denim Depot...) :( Otherwise it was pretty clever! But if I have to be frank, I didn't think the Viper carried off the 'General Lee' look nearly as well...
