    Rear license area filler

    The rear license area on 91-024 is body color, and on the Speedster it is black. I hadn't really noticed this before because the 'Speedster' plate almost fills the entire space. At first I thought that there was some kind of a filler panel on the Speedster, so I posted on the ZR1 forum to see...

    Rear license area filler?

    A question for you ZR1 owners out there. I've had a 91 and 93 ZR1 in the past, but I can't recall this for sure. Isn't there a black plastic filler panel on the rear bumper that goes between the backup lights? This would fill the gaps on each side of a standard US license plate. If there is...

    Found one - or rather, it found me

    A month or so ago I tried to buy 91-024 at the Leake Auction, and it didn't work out so well. But, I talked to the buyer and gave him my info and asked him to contact me if he changed his mind. Much to my surprise, he contacted me and offered me the car. Turns out the original seller had a...

    Is it just me?

    I ran across another book that has a photo of my car in it - The Standard Catalog of Corvette, 2nd Edition. This is the 4th or 5th book I've found, and in all but one, the car is identified wrong. I've seen it identified as a Series II Speedster, a CR1, or, in this case, a 1992 Callaway...

    Now they've gone too far...

    ...with a pair of Callaway Speedster cuff links. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170235722408&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:US:1123 Correct me if I'm wrong (because if these are actually some rare Speedster collectible, I'll be all over it), but those Speedsters on the cuff links...

    Now this would look great in my garage...

    1984 LeMans Callaway Corvette Race Wheel and Tire. This is part of Corvette and LeMans History. Callaways Corvette was the fastest GT2 car in the LeMans Race. He is superstious and used the tires and wheels again in 1994. The history is on Google. The tire and wheel is just as it came off the...

    New COG home page - welcoming?

    I just went to the COG site and saw the new home page with this photo: And the welcome message: The Callaway Owners Group (COG) welcomes all the new Supercharged Callaway Corvette and C16 Owners to our family. Think maybe the 'Absolutely No Entry' sign should be edited out, or am I seeing...

    FS: 1963 Convertible

    I've owned this car for almost 30 years, but it's time to make a change. I did a body-off restoration on this car over a period of years, finishing it in 1995. Since then I have put just under 6000 miles on it, and the car looks and drives awesome. 327/250 matching numbers NOM, Powerglide...

    Sealant for rubber trim on Aerobody lens?

    When I first got my car, the thin rubber strip around left front lens was coming off. I did a lousy job of glueing it back in place, and it never looked right. Today when I was washing the car it came off again, so this is my chance to fix it right. Once I cleaned out the glue I used, it looks...

    Anybody familiar with this show company?

    http://www.elegantcars.com/ On the site, this sounds like a great show being held here at the Phoenician Resort in January. I though this would be a good show to take the Speedster to it, so I started registering on the site. I thought it was weird that, after submitting the registration, the...

    Under construction...

    89x2 hooked me up with Ray Zisa from the Corvette Center, who did the paint on my Speedster. Ray was good enough to send me not only the paint info for the car (btw, it's a 3 stage paint - with a black base coat, 2-3 light tint coats, followed by clear - sure hope I never have to do any major...

    Bose amp rebuild/replace recommendations?

    I took the Speedster out today and when I turned on the radio I found the infamouse Bose amplifier squeal in my right front. I haven't had to fix one of these in a while. It looks like MAD has replacements for about $130 (although their photo doesn't look like the right style). I also found this...

    COG site down?

    Is anyone else having trouble getting to the COG website? I haven't been able to get there for several days. All other sites seem to be working normally.

    Speedster and the NCRS

    Not really, but since it HAS been pretty quiet around here, I thought I would share an article I wrote for our last NCRS Arizona Chapter newsletter. I'm the editor, and I was just preparing our next newsletter when I saw this article again. Several of my NCRS brethren have asked me about the...

    Proud owner of 91 TT #038

    Not another car (not yet, anyway), but I found out from Joanne that the Speedster's number in the TT series was 38. Best of all, they still had the plaque! One more piece of the puzzle falls into place. Thanks Joanne! (And thanks for the tip, 89x2!)

    Turbo housing bolt torque?

    I just discovered that the Speedster had the nerve to drip some oil on the hood of my '63. Of course it managed to drip through about a 1" gap in the drip trays on the lift. :mad Upon closer inspection, I think the oil was seeping from around one the bolts that looks like it bolts the turbo...

    Daily Drivers - where do you spend your time, when not driving your Callaway Corvette

    Current daily driver is an Avalanche, but a bone stock low-end one. :D Looking back I probably should have just kept the Yukon XL and used it as a tow vehicle. At the time we were looking to sell my wife's BMW and the truck and get a smaller SUV. She liked the Cayenne, and I talked her into...
