    Body tag.

    Swiped this answer from another forum. No clue if its right or not Enamel. All St. Louis C3s used acrylic lacquer. Bowling Green used enamel. The E reminds dealers/painters that the paint is not lacquer.

    Question: AM radio issues

    Have a 99 also and same issue with AM. Actually FM isn't all that good either. Stations I pick up clear as a bell in my daily driver can't be found in the vette. I need to set aside a day to chase the assorted gremlins in the car and replace both DRL assemblies. Will be watching this thread.

    Question: Is the gas tank for the C4 vented? Mine doesn't seem to be.

    Not vented as far as I know. When working on fuel rails, injectors or system, ALWAYS remove/crack the gas cap, otherwise fuel will try(and be successful) to escape.

    Help! Dash and electrical freaking out! HELP!!

    ^yeahthat Had a similar problem that went away once I cleaned up all the grounding points. If I remember correctly, driver's side of engine grounds were really funky and I suspect that's where the problem was.

    DIC - Average MPG

    Thanks for the reply, had me thinking that I might have been too, but found my negative battery cable loose and all seems normal now after tightening it back up. Makes me think that someone was messing with the car. I typically only drive it once a week in winter and it usually sits locked and...

    89 alarm

    Couple days after I bought my 89, my wife took it out to ride around town and shop. I was golfing with a friend, and had turned off my cell and left it in my friend's car, along with his. After golfing, my friend turned his phone on and had a rambling angry curse word filled 3 minute msg from...

    Video: 1959 Corvette Parking Mishap at Walmart

    Been trying to figure that out myself. Fusions are front wheel drive and at WOT, the front end doesn't get as much lift as it would if it was rear wheel drive. Hard to imagine the vette not getting pushed around by impact rather than run over.

    C5 craigs list add

    Funny, the hate some have for Mustangs is hilarious. Bought an 06 GT off the showroom floor and put 180k+ on it before I sold it a couple years ago. Not a stitch of trouble with the car, best daily driver I ever had.

    Question: Alternator problem?

    Not that this response is much help but the 89 I had ate alternators up ever 2 or 3 years. The original owner had the alternator replaced under warranty, then replaced again 3 yrs later at his expense and again 4 years later. Besides the dealership, he had 3 different mechanics look into it plus...

    FWIW, I am or have been a member of probably 20-25 different forums ranging from town/locality to dogs, cars(other than vettes), power equipment, contract discussions, etc..and this forum is by far one of the better moderated forums I've been on. Perfect balance of letting some things go with a...
