    Help! Brake Job: New Rotors or not

    The rear rotors just got drilled of my '69. The car has a ton of hard miles on it, more than 500,000. They just needed to be turned. Get a better tech.

    Owner of Rare Corvette Is Furious at Sorority

    The last time my wife drove my Vette was 1997! (It caught on fire so she's banned for life). BTW, the 6 and 8 year olds are girls, so all the girls in my house are BaNNED from Vette contact.

    I keep my Vette under a tarp in my garage. My 6 and 8 year olds know better than to touch that car or even get near it.

    1st Corvette mileage

    No kidding, mine was dead for at least a decade of it's life. Good thing I don't care about miles! LOL

    1st Corvette mileage

    The best part about mileage on the early C3's is that the Odo had a defect and they constantly failed until a permanent fix was created years later. So I don't believe the mileage of any early C3 anyway. Mine failed a number of times, it stayed broken at one point for many years. I don't know...

    battery drain

    I sounds like you're not charging properly. The alternator in my 73 Eldo was putting out 20 amps then it would jump to 60 then somewhere else. It was a bitch to figure out why I was having strange issues with the car. Maybe you have a bad ground or something like that. Good luck.

    1st Corvette mileage

    IMO the mileage is meaningless unless you have good documentation to back it up.

    battery drain

    I use a quick disconnect on my 69, the battery is 2.5 years old. Have you checked your alternator?

    Help! OH NO!!! NEW SEAT HELL!!!!

    When I had my seats rebuilt I sent the back two times due to the wrong material. I wanted my correct 1969 comfort weave! I suppose they could have put in the wrong foam in yours? And, that is a nice shifter!

    1974 Corvette in action

    Lots of open space is a good way to learn to burn 'em in an early C3! Looks like fun!

    Back to the shop for classic Corvette

    That guy should hire an independent adjuster. I did, it brought my '69 back from far, far worse damage than that.

    Question: Who here is running 17" tires on their C3 or earlier?

    When I could get 245/60/15's from Goodyear I ran them. When my car would need alignment my right front would rub... Since I run 235/60/15's now, I no longer have that issue. I'm sure this couldn't apply to your situation, but I got nothin' else. They have alignment shops in Ohio don't they?

    Question: So do you like the 15" rims or the 17" rims?

    American Racing 200S Series VC 2001 would look right on your car IMO, period correct style and tough. The gun metal is cool as well. I like the OEM alloys polished (I should, that's what I have), the chrome on steel set in the first pick are uh... not my favorite, I don't think the 17's look...
