i sure have heard THAT song from my wife before! well - tell her that if she likes this color it's take it now or forever hold your peace cuz i doubt you'll find another glacier blue/dove grey... ever. ya - i know. that kinda "logic" doesn't work on women. i've tried it ALL on my wife! :W

it's an 850. email me - ddsofmarin@yahoo.com wouldn't want to hijack the thread :D

:ugh

aw come on... it's ONE day of the year to represent, y'know? strength in numbers! especially these days with the way the economy, the fuel shortage, and the future of the general and bowtie looking so grim. and btw, fwiw... you should know this if you drive one.... it's "BIMMER", not "BEAMER"...

i've gotta say, i agree. i'd be veeeeeery suspicious!!!!

damn straight! :beer

after reading countless insurance threads (ad nauseum!) on this forum, i told my state farm agent that unless i get AGREED VALUE and not "ACTUAL CASH VALUE" am outta there and onto hagerty. their answer was: "ACTUAL CASH VALUE means you will get what the car is valued at which is $40,000"...

hey look... i'm not trying to argue here. my whole reason for posting was to warn people not to fall into this trap. if you don't believe me... fine. proceed at your own risk. and you know what? if anything happens to your vette, i hope to god that you are RIGHT! i don't want you to get...

it's not what you THINK it's worth, it's what it IS worth. if my car gets appraised for 35grand and it gets destroyed, i better damn well get 35 grand for it, which is what you WILL get with an agreed value policy.... only available from collector's insurance companies.

search the c1/c2, and c3 forums for "insurance".... there is actually a thread in the c1/c2 forum archives specifically about state farm! read just a little and you will quickly learn. state farm covers "stated" value not "agreed". meaning, if your car burns down tommorrow, you are NOT...

hey all you state farm guys and gals BEWARE -YOU DO NOT HAVE WHAT YOU THINK YOU HAVE. i will guarantee you THAT!!! i just got done paying for the same policy you have, under the same impression. luckily i found out NOW before any issues, but i'm pissed as hell :mad at getting lied to for so...

instrument lights not going on. i located the fuse box and on the bottom there's a small fuse labeled "inst" and something else, can't remember, but i'm pretty sure that'd be the fuse. right? that being said, is this something i can get at any local parts store? when i change it, do i need...

thanks! looks like we're twins. :D anyway i ended up contacting painless via email and they were very helpfull. i ordered and received the latching solenoid and now am just waiting to install it. :pat

trying to get one that will function as both a decent theft deterrent, and a method to prevent the battery from draining over long periods of time. some really nice guys on my other forum (i don't take sides, if your wondering. i don't see why we ALL can't get along :upthumbs!) anyway, so they...

maybe i'm just too damn strong for this car :D.

THANKS! i'm all over that! any idea why this one is 5 bucks more? http://www.eastwoodco.com/shopping/product/detailmain.jsp?itemID=1373&itemType=PRODUCT&iProductID=1373 it *looks* like it does the same thing. did you have any issues fitting that apparatus in your batt compartment?

thanks guys. i think i'm gonna go with a charger for now and look into the cutoff thing... still kinda confused about the whole dry cell/wet cell thing. i hear you're not supposed to use a charger with a dry cell. is this true? if so, how do i know if my battery is a dry cell or a wet cell?

but with those "tenders".... what do they attach to? just the battery? or to a wall? and would i have to leave the tender in every time i leave the car?

[you'd be ahead of the game if you took a look at what's causing the courtesy lights to stay on. :) um.... that'd be ME. alot of times when i come home late/tired/whatever and turn the headlights off, i accidentally turn the interior lights ON b/c it's so easy to turn that knob ever so...

thanks cstarr, - a charcoal '81. sounds nice! well, that helps me out with step one: i guess our cars ARE 12v. now, something that i have learned in my recent research which may help YOU out is to be carefull with keeping that thing plugged in all the time :nono... that's a great way to ruin...
