    Updated Web Site... Check it out!

    I noticed the air cleaner is stuffed in the upper front bumper area. It would be cool if you could cut some slots in the bumper like my very poor photshop pic attached.

    Ah, I found some more old pics

    You nailed it. It had the wing on both ends of the body side chrome. Nope, my Dad sold it in 88 to another Chevy dealer, who auctioned it. It is now in Saudi Arabia. No joke!

    Ah, I found some more old pics

    Here I am...strapping young lad riding in Dad's 54 Vette. You gotta love the sun glasses my Mom was wearing!!!!!! I think this was taken in 84 or 85. Now...for those of you that are C1 experts...tell me what is wrong with this car based upon what you can see in the picture. It cost us the...

    Let me introduce you to FRANKENVETTE

    It is a freshly rebuilt D36 with brand new bearings and posi unit. I had Luck7's81 build it for me. He did a real nice job. I wish it was a 44..

    O2 Sensor Question

    It might not hurt to remove it, spray it down with brake cleaner or carb cleaner, then lightly burn it off clean with a propane torch. You may have other issues. Just because there is no code, does not mean you are 100% healthy. You need to determine if it is going into closed loop. Do...

    CAC Member in a Car Magazine?

    Yep, Feb 03, March 03, and a Q&A section in April 03 for Vette Magazine with my 69. The feature was March 03. Feb was a small pic of Mike Yager presenting his celebrity choice award to me at BG. The April issue was a follow up feed back section where readers had e-mailed Vette with questions...

    Let me introduce you to FRANKENVETTE

    Actually, I am having MAJOR issues with the fuel injection. I am getting a stock chip for it this week from GM. This is to get a base line, and somewhere to go with -=Jeff=- doing a reprogram for me. Right now it has a ADS Strip Chip (out of business) and I have a hunch it is causing most of...

    Help! More Heater Core Help!

    Yep, you have a core failure. Sorry to tell you that. It is only going to get worse. You need to either bypass it, or tackle it soon, because when it fully ruptures, you will have a mess on your passenger floor carpet.

    Hooker Header/side pipe install problem:

    :L Nope, I am not ready to start another one. You might have seen my link for the 71 convertible. That car kicked my butt. I also had a hand in the forming of the body on Bruiser seen at www.tropiczoneracing.com Now that is a monster vette for you. That is TZracer with the header he had to...

    L98 383 engine buildup

    Yes, it can be done, but I don't see it simply by buying that 425 crate motor. The CA smog Nazis are tough to get around. He would be better to stroke out his own short block, then work on all CARB legal parts from there out.

    * Service Engine Soon * Light

    I want to say 200 or 250, but that is just a wild guess. I actually know this number, but have forgotten it!!!!!!!

    Collector Car Insurance - Add Comment

    Yep..you are a wise consumer. You have read the fine print, reviewed your drive style, and realized that this one size fits all collectable coverage is not right for you. I have regular insurance on my 69 for the very same reason. It is worth ACV if it is damaged. No driving, garaging...

    L98 383 engine buildup

    agreed, but neither will be C.A.R.B. compliant..right?

    L98 383 engine buildup

    Unless your engine is just plain worn out and ready for a rebuild, I suggest you look into putting a super charger on your car. That way, you get 40% more power, cool under the hood looks, and you can pull it all off in one weekend and stay emission legal. The 383 would be great...except...

    Help! More Heater Core Help!

    My 90 was very much like your 96. Major pain in the butt! The wire harness is everywhere you need to be when doing the job. I was not happy about doing that one. It is much different than the early C4 (note--much harder!) Just plan on having the car down for a day or two while you...

    Hooker Header/side pipe install problem:

    No design flaw...just the joy of adding mods to your car!!!!!!! I have installed a dozen or more headers on different cars in the last 10 years. Of that, only one set went on the first time with ZERO mods. Can you imagine my surprise???? The big blocks have much larger primary tubes on these...

    Hooker Header/side pipe install problem:

    nope, the body is not your problem. Although, getting the side pipes to mount to the frame rail and clear the rocker molding does require some mods to the rocker molding (on the big block pipes).
