    Question: Oil Change additive question ?

    Have anyone out there used this "Liqui Moly Mos2 Anti-friction treatment ? The guys at the Porsche forums and bobtheoilguy.com think the stuff is gold ? It's made in Germany and is pretty dark color but has a lot of positive user feedback ? :eyerole

    Question: Ready to get the Vette out on the road.

    The interior ? I found a little company in Texas who did such a nice job on a shifter boot, I asked about something a little more exotic, and they came back even better than I thought it could be done. The Shift boot and E-brake boot are done in a light ash. It's the closest I could get to fit...

    Question: Ready to get the Vette out on the road.

    Sadly about 600. I was very sick last year. As I get older it seems like you are either going this doctor or that doctor. I gotta start enjoying life a little more ! But I did get the interior last year.

    Question: Ready to get the Vette out on the road.

    The oil in my 2003 has been in there since last August, I should change it right ? I usually change it every August along with the filter and PA state inspection ? It's 2013 so I need to flush the coolant and change it as well. Thank you ! :w

    Question: Radio

    Radio loss ? Go to RadioShack, buy the tiniest LED clock and pick up a strip of Velcro. A pair of scissors and a little creative positioning and you have a clock. Just my $0.02 :w

    So I put my deposit down for a C7, now what color choice?

    I think that is an excellent choice. I have tried all of the colors at the Chevy.com site for 2014 Corvettes. What is the price of the step up from the base model ? But I my humble opinion I'd go with Cyber Gray. The black plastic parts seem to blend in good with the gray. I still like the...

    Question: How do I make black enamal paint look good?

    I had the 89 repainted at Macco, we did all the prep work, and Macco only did the final onyx black. It looks fine, but it doesn't have the base coat/ clear coat look. I can't or should I say I couldn't afford to have a $8000.00 put into a $7000 Vette. It's a great DD, and it worked out pretty...

    Motor Oil

    Green oil ? :confused My 2003 came with Mobil-1 5w/30 which I'll keep feeding it. Like Hib said, If I wanted something better I'll put in Red Line or Royal purple.

    Just Say "No" To E15

    Alcohol & Ethanol ? Well I've heard a ton of negative feedback from a whole lot of Repair technicians and gear-heads alike, They can't all be wrong. Alcohol will dry out most anything washed with it. Alcohol is the same thing only called Ethanol, and I'm only too well versed in the damage that...

    Good Lord !! NO!!! That Thing Is BUTT UGLY

    WoW. . . I've never seen this much polarity since the presidential election ! I never saw this much anger or glee at the introduction of a Corvette. Most every Corvette related website has had the sameinitiall reaction to this edgy angular stylingexperimentt. I am not in the "I love it !"...

    Good Lord !! NO!!! That Thing Is BUTT UGLY

    C7 designed tail lights ? I'm not all the way into the hate camp, but I read a few days before the revel that the tail lights also house a exhaust outlet for the heat from the rear brakes. I think it was in 'Auto-Week' but you can see them if you look at a face-on of the tail section. The...

    Why the Corvette will be successful and why you don't like it.

    The C7 and my first impact. First, please forgive me, I sometimes am not all that clear with the english language, and in doing short, to the point answers. And no, we're all friends here, no matter what GM builds. I'm not hung up on the square tail lights so much as I am with stylist decision...

    Why the Corvette will be successful and why you don't like it.

    Glossing over some very concrete reasons for being critical about an expensive purchase. In all respect, you seem to put a hell of a lot of faith in people disregarding what they 'Expect' and what they are 'Willing' to pay' and at far above the $70.000 price, I seem to misrepresented here...

    Why the Corvette will be successful and why you don't like it.

    Where is the 2014 Corvette ? I , just like Charles am an older and a man in my 60's and have owned many corvettes starting with a 1959 in 1968. But despite all of the raves and hater's i read about the C7, no one can tell me why, why they couldn't have kept the round tail-lights. It may seem...

    Question: 2014 Vette

    C7 shopping in your future ? Yesterday I went to Chevrolet.com Once there you can look at the new Corvette is a whole host of colors. I personally don't care for Torch Red, but they have this year a really good selection of colors, Gray's blue's silver and this year a Green. I know some of us...

    Good Lord !! NO!!! That Thing Is BUTT UGLY

    Chevrolet.com If you go the the chevy website, you can view the car in all of it's colors, Nice paint, interior looks fine. But I've given it the 24 hours it takes for you to see the better angels of my nature in favor of the 2014, but I still would rather have a ZL1 Camaro. I'm sorry, but it's...

    C7 in all it's glory ?????? Well, they did say in it's earlier trailer that it, "Will be like nothing else " And they didn't let me down. Sad they couldn't keep the round tail lights. And is this all the black plastic they could afford to stick on a damn car. The thing looks like a 70's...
