I replaced the battery in my '96 LT4 this fall and it appears that the climate control system isn't working now. I can set it to "auto" with a temperature at 72 and the system doesn't react as it used to. It blows cold air rather then what I would normally expect (like some heat when it is 35...
I replaced the tires on my LT4 today. I had ordered a set of Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3's in March but my tire dealer told me they were on backorder. Long story short, Goodyear kept moving out the production date and I needed to look for options as the old BF Goodrich tires on my car were worn to a...
I have just purchased a '96 LT4 that has had the water pump replaced. The previous owner had said the water pump was leaking so he had it replaced. The dealer work order even stated that they "cleaned the area as well as possible". When I put it up on my lift there was a fair amount of...
I have sold my C3 and am now looking at C4's. I came across a '96 coupe with an LT4, fairly low miles and appers to be in very good condition. The one thing I noticed that seemed a little strange was where the clutch engaged with the clutch pedal. I engages about 2-3 inches from full release of...
Has anyone run across a good manual or web site that describes how to properly aim headlights on a C3? I searched CAC and found a couple of threads for non-C3 cars, but they didn't seem to be what I am looking for.
I don't drive my '79 at night too often, but when I do it seems the headlights...
I have 4 mounting holes/grommets on the rear deck of my '79. I have been told that these are for a T-Top carrier so I thought I would check CAC to see if anyone has something like this laying around their garage that might be what was on the car at some point in it's life. Whatever was mounted...
I have a '79 L-82 close ratio 4 speed that I have verified as having the original numbers matching engine. The car is pretty original exept for "Bubba" :( installed a poor excuse for a dual exhaust system on it and a set of '80-'81 wheels and 60 series tires. The interior is good but needs the...
A previous owner of my 79 L82 decided to install dual exhaust/cats. Unfortunately they didn't do a good job :( . The driver side muffler is way crooked and everything is welded so it will be a big undertaking to try to straighten things out. I am thinking about replacing the whole system and...
I have been searching for a late 70's die cast Corvette but have been told by a local hobby shop that they have never seen any. Searching on Ebay seems to confirm that. Should I give up the search? :cool
Does anyone have any advice on, or experience with car lifts such as Back Yard Buddy or Stinger lifts? I am looking for something like this to put on one side of my garage that has a 9' door. Any experiences or suggestions would be very helpful.
Thanks!

I just replaced the weather seals on my 79 T-tops and now there is a fair amount of noise from the mount points as the chassis flexes. Will this subside as the seals seat or is there a good method of lubricating the metal to metal contacts that other owners have found?
PS: I am a first time...
