I know it doesn't mean much to most of you ...

Well Ken, I just viewed your webpage. Pretty cool!!! Is the silver a stock color for your Vette? And I like the blue detailing under the hood!!!! Where can I get similar touches for my '93? Everything I've seen is for racing or off-road use. I don't wanna go blue-coo coo, but I'd like to dress it up some under there. Kinda like the packages that are available for the C5. Anyway..., re: your post--OF COURSE it means something to us. Have Corvette Will Travel!!!! (Did I just date myself with that twist on a tv show title!?!!!!)

Yes, the Obsession was silver from the factory, but when I painted it in '96 we lightened it a bit so that it's more of a Porsche silver.

I got the "Turbo Hose" through Baker Precision Racing, here in Long Beach, CA. The wires are Taylor, available in red, blue or black (and maybe more colors). I am running the Pro 409 series, but they are overkill for your engine I'm sure. You'd only need the stock size replacements.

And as far as "Have Corvette, Will Travel" goes... I'm ready, just broke! :L

Have (Corvette) Will Travel reads the card of a man.​

A knight without armor in a savage land.​

His fast gun for hire heeds the calling wind.​

A soldier of fortune is the man called Paladin.​

Paladin, Paladin Where do you roam?​

Paladin, Paladin, Far, far from home.​

By the way, thanks for signing my guest book Vee. :cool

See the USA in your Chevrolet ​

America is asking you to call ​

Drive your Chevrolet through the USA ​

America's the greatest land of all ​

On a highway, or a road along the levy ​

Performance is sweeter, nothing can beat her ​

Life is completer in a Chevy ​

So make a date today to see the USA​

And see it in your Chevrolet​

Traveling East, Travelling West​

Wherever you go Chevy service is best​

Southward or North, near place or far​

There's a Chevrolet dealer for your Chevrolet car​

So make a date today to see the USA​

And see it in your Chevrolet.​

OH MY GOD!!!!!!
I cannot believe you found that!!!!! When I was a kid, I was the ONLY one in the house who would watch that show!!! I didn't even know what the h*ll the title meant until I was in jr. high school and learning the true meaning of punctuation marks, but I watched that show cause the title was cool, Paladin was cool and the theme song was cool!!!! Uhmm..., Sky King?.... Dag! I ain't that old...er...ish!!!! Now that Dale and Roy!.... I tell ya, I had me a set of six guns and rocked my way around the world to nowhere and back on my rocking horse before I discovered Vettes. Yeeeeeee HAW!!!! I used to have one of those business cards from the show. I don't know where it is now. Must've lost it in a move or it's stuck in a box somewhere. Lawd, does that bring back memories!!!! And as a child of the art of watching tv, I do remember Mz. Shore and those tv spots!!!! Wow! What a blast from the past!!!
