Whoda thunk it by
Dad[_1_]
GM is reusing the engine designation LT1 for their 2014 Corvette
engine. Massive head changes along with more tweaking of the
piston/rod design. Interesting intake runners feeding into large head
ports between exhaust and intake valves that have traded places.(?)
Valves were also cocked to make...

How quickly we forget by
Dad[_1_]
DOH, what was I thinking the, C2, C3, & C4 has a fuel filler in the
middle. I'm sure GM finally put it on the side to keep from confusing
drivers when they check the "Best kept auto secret" for filler door
location. That way they would find it quicker after going from side to
side trying to...

Past time to get the Corvette out by
Dad[_1_]
Time to get the '64 out and ready to go. First off it had a flat tire
and that just happened to be back in the corner where you can't get at
it, more on that later. Tried to start it and no go, opened the hood
and removed the breather and set the choke. That's the reason I'm
posting this. The...

Good bye GK, you fought the fight with a known outcome as cancer to

Detroit Three find hope in centerfield.
This certainly tells you something about the man.
When the Tigers open their season this week, fans will look to
centerfield at Comerica Park and see the greenery, the flagpoles and

Autocross by
Dad[_1_]
While I was chasing pylons this weekend it was fun to watch the car
attitudes as the came around my corner.
The lone C2 was a hoot, 80 year old was trying to gain enough points
to get his NCCC jacket. Drove it up here, Ohio, from Florida. Ran both
days and did a fair job.
Odd, but no C3s...

Don't put the Dawn away after the dishes are done. Dawn is great for all sorts
of other chores. Try it diluted in water...

Removable hart top for a Mid-year by
Dad[_1_]
If anyone has a line on a good buy for a decent hardtop that would fit my '64
could you let me know. Seen a few for sale but nothing close of much value.
Thanks

Back in January 25th 2007 there was a post telling us how GM was

Where are the C6 racers by
Dad[_1_]
Spent the weekend at our autocross that our club puts on each year and
besides being hot for 2 days standing on asphalt there seems to me to
be a lack of C6 participation.
After the C5 came out in 3 years there were numerous C5s out there and
many more with the Z06 being added the next year. ...
