I appreciate the workmanship that obviously went into that -- but my $85k would go toward a '69 Yenko Camaro, not a fancy slot car table... Well, at least $85k would be a decent down payment on a genuine Yenko Camaro...

The OEM sports seats were a factory option in '98; my '98 coupe has them. So if you find a set from that model year, they should fit without any issues. Not sure if there were changes that prevented sport seats from later model years from being retrofitted, but if not, you might actually want...

My condolences and prayers for you and your family, "chokcey." I have a pretty good idea what you're going through at the moment. I hadn't made it public knowledge here on the forum before now, but my mom passed away this past March. She'd been in quite a bit of pain with back problems...

Right there with you, Bud. I haven't watched the so-called 'Weather' Channel for a long, long time now (in this or any other galaxy ;))... It seemed that the weather report/forecast was the last thing you'd get from those guys when you tuned them in; otherwise, it was non-stop yammering about...

For me, it was just the best color for a C5 convertible. Plus it gave me some closure for the one that got away... My aunt and uncle owned a 1966 Pontiac Catalina convertible from new -- yellow with a black interior and top. The car was garage-kept, rarely driven, and ever since I was 3 years...

I would also remove the targa top of your coupe before starting. Makes it easier to lift the seat out of the cockpit without dragging it across the foot sill. I had to have some warranty work done on the lumbar workings of the passenger side seat in my '04 convertible; and rather than opening...

Like "Mac," I'll try to put my reaction politely: Doing this sort of thing to a Corvette (or any other car, for that matter) is analogous to pretty girls that wear too much makeup -- it adds nothing to the overall package and is a complete waste of money... :ugh

Welcome! :w You'll want to review this thread for help on decoding the codes. Looks like there's a couple current HVAC ones, so I'd start with those. The HVAC problem could be simple or difficult to fix. Somewhere around the C5 forum is a thread dealing with a reset procedure on the HVAC...

I think it could affect gas mileage too, but don't quote me on that...

Sounds like you've got an intermittent (and persistent) problem with an O2 sensor; the P0157 code (according to this site) decodes as "Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) Circuit Low Voltage Bank 2 Sensor 2." The "H" and "C" indicators after the code tell you that it's both an historic (old) and...

I'll take a WAG and say Denise Richards...

Ah, the Cards laid an egg last year. Time for some new blood in the Series...! ;)

Now we have to prove... ... that last year wasn't a fluke. Buccos all the way in the NL Central!

I agree; the early marketing photos didn't leave me pining for the C7; but once I saw it in person, I was much more taken with it. Still haven't quite come to terms with the tail lights, but I do like the way they've improved the front-end styling compared to the C6. As an aside, Chevy sent a...

Since you didn't specify, I'll toss out a thought: if you're using home-spun (i.e., 'burned') music CD's, these often seem to encounter fail-to-read problems with the CD player in the C5 (and likely, other GM vehicles). Try a commercially-produced music CD, like you'd have bought at a music...

There is a 'reset' procedure for the electric tilt/telescope column; you might try that. Here are a couple of threads that deal with the topic: http://www.corvetteactioncenter.com/forums/c5-technical-performance/36610-telescoping-steering-column-wont-telescope.html telescopic steering column -...

Wow! That didn't take long...!

No worries! Yeah, if I recall from Paul's presentation, there are certain voltage thresholds that have to be met in order for the car to operate properly. If it's any consolation, it's not just the C5 and later Corvettes; car models from many different manufacturers (BMW leaps immediately to...

If you can work out the finances before 01-03 November, and get yourself to somewhere in the vicinity of Lexington, KY by then, you can ride with me when I retreive my Cherokee 180 and bring it to Waco, TX; I'm sure we can work the rest of it out at that point. Good luck with the sale, Bud...

As Hib pointed out, if you're going to stick to the FRC body style, the selective/magnetic suspensions (F45/F55) are not even an option; you'll get either an FE3 ('99-00 FRC) or FE4 ('01-04 Z06) suspension. But to answer your question in the context of the other body styles (coupe...
