So very sorry to hear this. I got to meet Bud and Blackdog on their way thru Missouri on year . We had a great time eating lunch at a local restaurant and enjoy talking about our cars. His "Rare" and my 81 are the same color and I had just gotten mine repainted and he was on the fence about...

As the title says, No in the hell do you get the a/c dryer out of these cars? I have the compressor and hoses all loose and or out of the car, but can't figure out how to get to the line on the top of the dryer. Help me before I give up and take it to a shop to have the work done. Zane

Thanks for the replys guys! I do have a lift in my garage so that will help and I'm guessing the fittings will be tight as hell. I'm going to take the hood off so I don't damage it while trying to get the hose off the condensor. I do plan on getting the whole system sucked down and leak tested...

Hey Guys and Gals, I haven't been on the forum for a while, simply because of time and the car has been running great - when I have time drive it. I put a whooping 120 miles on her last summer. Well now I have time and I have a problem - NO A/C. The compressor locked up last year So heres my...

Hows this Bud. Have you seen mine snice I put new wheels and tires on her?

Thats why I haven't replaced mine! Mine still works, just the little "on indicater" light buld has burnt out. Not going to spend that kind of money just to fix a burnt out light bulb. Zane

Wow Bud, Never thought you'd give up "Rare"! Just wanted to say Thank You for all the hard work you put into the registry. Enjoy the new ride! I hope to get my wife a C5 with the next year or so myself, as soon as our youngest daughter gets her license. I remember the Bowling Green gathering for...

Hey, that looks like my back yard. It really blows doesn't it.

Here's mine! Charcoal Metallic , 4-speed, bought from the original owner almost 12 years and only 67k on the odo. Draws compliments everytime I take it out!

All you have to do is install longer spring bolts. These are the ones at each end of the spring. I used 9/16-12 x 8. I got the thru a local machine shop supply store. They were like 8-9 buck apiece with the new nuts. any more questions just shoot me a p.m. Zane

This doesn't apply to all C3's. On my 81 the specs are as follows: Wheel--15x8 Offset--neg. 12.7 mm Backspace--4" The wheel and offset specs are straight off of my GM spec sheets and the Backspace is what I personally measured myself and doubled checked by the local wheel and tire store that...

The tires are BF Goodrich 255 60 15.

Here's my 81 with Torq Thrust II's They are 15 x8, with a 4" backspace and they fit with no problem. These are the C405 series wheel. Chrome center with a high polished outer rim. They get lots of compliments!! I have lowered the rear since these pics were taken.

Tatorot, This guy has two of them availiable, but I'm not going to pay that kind of money for one. Mine still works except for the indicator light. For $129.00 I can live without the light, no more than I use the defroster on my car. 81/82 corvette rear window defroster switch NOS NEW!!!!

As The titls says, I need a defroster switch for my '81. The on/off indicator light in my old one has burnt out. Thanks, Zane

My 94 and my 81 after a local car show this summer.
