So a couple of weeks ago I replaced both of the crappy plastic gears in each of my headlight motors, along with all four headlights. Now the high beam on the passenger side will not light up. Driver's side works fine. I checked it with the driver's side bulb and still doesn't light up. Any...

So I finally got to take the Corvette on a long weekend trip. We left Sunday morning and got home late Wednesday night. Roughly 1100 miles from home. It made me love the car even more. We cruised at 80mph on the highway, attacked some county roads in Kentucky and Tennessee, and that Borla...

My 03 was lowered on the stock suspension when I got it a few weeks ago. However, I live in a somewhat rural area and the cowl drags on my driveway and on some of the roads that I drive. So I need to raise it back up to stock height. How do I do this? Do I need to put it on jack stands, take the...

2003 Chevrolet Corvette 50th Anniversary Edition, $9,800 - Cars.com I have emailed the guy and he says the car is in Olympia, WA and that the price includes shipping. He says it has 35k miles. I checked the VIN and it came back that the check digit was incorrect. Could be a typo. I asked him...

Really considering a C3 as a daily driver. How many of you are there that drive the C3 every day and have to deal with Ohio type weather? My wife loves the C3 shape and look and I'm thinking the only way I might convince her to (it shames me to admit this) allow me to have another Corvette it...

I'm so glad they are moving forward with this! This is the mid-engine Corvette test mule

I have been thinking about swapping out the seats in my Z. Does anyone have any suggestions? The main reason I am thinking about this is my rear-end doesn't fit in the seat as comfortably as I would like. Okay, I have a fat a$$. That's the truth. Thanks in advance.

I spoke with Gordon Killebrew's wife the other day, I was getting the school schedule for 2007, when she told me that he was going to be inducted into the National Corvette Museum's Hall Of Fame on August 31st. Just thought I would pass on the information to everyone as Gordon has been a wealth...

As the guy says in the ad, it is 17 years old, but buy it now price is $12,900. Even with 125k on the clock, that just seems cheap. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chevrolet-Corvette-1990-CORVETTE-ZR1-ZR-1-LT5-BLACK-ON-BLACK_W0QQitemZ330050699885QQihZ014QQcategoryZ6168QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Jim

I bought a complete set of 1990 aluminum wheels a couple of months ago and since I am not going to use them I am wondering what would be the best way to store them long term? Thanks for any suggestions! Jim

Friday night we had our monthly meeting of the Corvette club. Everything went well. The wife and I had to leave a little early because I had to be at work at 9pm. As I was leaving a friend of mine, he has a 91 ZR-1 and I have asked him countless questions, asked me if I wanted to take his 63...

Just wondering if there are any pics of these beasts out there. They would have to be one of the rarest C4's ever made. Jim

Okay, This past Monday I finally got around to having the time to work on the Z (I had my gall bladder removed on the 17th and finally felt good enough to get out) and everything was going fine until I went to remove the injector housing hose. I noticed that it had a small hole in it. My...

I decided to clean the wheel wells that are attached to the clamshell and not wanting to risk getting water everywhere, I took them off. However, I noticed some sort of glue or epoxy or something on the holes where the screws went in. Does anyone 1) know what the stuff is; 2) do I need to...

I'm not sure if this has been discussed before or not, but, what is the best way to clean the wheel wells on the hood? I have tried the soap and water route, but that really only cleans the easy stuff. And, being new to Corvette ownership I don't want to inadvertently ruin something. Any...

Well, I'm not getting discouraged yet, but last week I had a dead battery. It was old and it's time to go. So I got that changed. Started her up and went for a short drive. Got home and backed into the garage. I came out the next morning and there is green fluid on the ground under the car...

As a follow up to my service manual thread I would like to know what would be a good idea to buy in the way of tools for working on the car. I have a few sockets, regular and metric, and some screwdrivers, but other than that I don't have anything. My first thought was to buy what I need as I...

I'm just wondering what is the best manual for C4's. I have the GM Service Manuals for my car. They were purchased by the previous owner. I have heard others here talking about the Helms manuals and the Chilton manuals. I don't have much mechanical experience, but other than engine work, and...

Driving home last night after picking up pizza with my daughter I hit a pothole! :mad We were talking and I wasn't paying as close of attention to the road as I should have (obviously!)!! Got home, looked at the wheel and there was a slight (but noticeable) bend in the right front wheel!!:mad...
