Meeting Plant Manager and arriving to build my car

Really nice gesture and they make your Z06 look even more spectacular!

I built mine in Bowling Green Preformance Build Center 4/25/17

I was reserving a hotel and they were in short supply, couldn't understand that until I read the Corvette Bash is happening that week, everyone is coming to witness the birth of my baby!

I built April 25, here's some photos for those curious or interested.

I just ordered a Z06 with several of the Z07 options (alacarte), I didn't want the harsher (stiffer) suspension or the Michelin Cup tires. I got what I wanted and not what I didn't. I got the full Z07 rear spoiler, but a smaller version of the front splitter with ground effects see photos Aero...

RPO PC Engine Buid and PD5 Buyer Tour they cover both the engine build an plant tour watching assembly I believe it includes books from both. I'm really looking forward to the experience when I build the LT4 Engine for my '17 Z06.

Sign welcoming a person who selected the engine build option I plant on doing the optional engine build and associated optional plant tour watching the car built and see the engine I assembled being installed. Bill H do you have any photos of the book or could you describe it, this as some very...

Considered museum delivery but if dealer installs, that takes away that option.

When building my 2017 Z06 online (Chevrolet website) I came across this option under accessories: Paint Protection - Associated Accessories Price : $499 Wear & Tear Kit Plus Added Protection Kit (Hood, Fenders, Mirrors, Front Bumpers, Door Edge Guards, Door Cups) by 3M...

I contacted Betty, she asked for more details about owner and I replied but I haven't heard back.

I recently be came the caretaker of a 1964 Corvette Sting Ray. I love the car and have been going through it changing fluids, greasing, adjusting the solid lifter cam and all that fun stuff. The car has quite a history and was displayed for 6 months at the museum in 2000. The owner of the car at...

Yes, my 64 is an AO Smith built coupe, final assembly was the last day of production on July 21, 1964. I have an odd mix of options L76 C60 N11 M20 T86 J50 J65 U69 G81 P92 which make the care some what rare. My dad worked for Rochester Products starting in 1939 finally retiring in 1986. He was...

Nice to have another factory experienced person chime in "General Mommie" always wanted those lines moving, I love the clamp story, that's the way it was. For the folks who know Sting Rays in and out I am always impressed and in awe at the details they've documented but then the human factor...

Interesting story, the damaged mold is definately possible. (The GM factory I worked at had close to a 100 mold makers and mold repairmen, so they would have jumped on that problem quickly.) I've read the A.O. Smith bodied C2s arrived at the factory completely assembled and painted. This would...

I run REC90 (no Ethanol) gas in my 1964 L76 327 365 h.p. 11:1 compression - runs fine, pricey at 3.27 per gallon. Go to Ethanol-free gas stations in the U.S. and Canada an click on what stat you are in and then the closest city. Also there is a great app for the iPhone that gives you a...

This is the registry of 1963's The Corvette C2 Registry

This was my '85 purchased new in Rochester NY, it had all options including the Doug Nash 4+3. I worked for Rochester Products at the time and they helped me get it to run perfectly by supplying me with experimental EPROMs. Still think the BOSE stereo in that Vette was the best sounding of all...

I echo many of DCSTEG's points. I started in the UAW back in 1977 and the workplace was very dangerous, they continued to make strides forward each year. I know most C7 Corvette owners haven't or will never work in a factory or industrial workplace. It is not the glorified place with lazy...

I had a 2000 WS6 Ram Air with the V8 LS1 engine, I have since had an In-Line 6 Lexus IS300 and a Cadillac CTS 3.6L V6, the LS1 got better mileage than either, why would I ever vote for way less power and worse mileage???
