Hey, does anybody else have problems with car alarms going off around them when they start their Corvette. I think it is funny. It has to be the glass-packs. It seems to happen pretty often too. I happened again today. I was in a parking lot and when I started the car, the dodge truck in front...

Hi, I'm in the middle of a restoration and had my door panels removed to sandblast the iron innerparts. Now I want to replace the skins with new ones. The doors are out of the car. Which is the best way to do this ? Thanks

I am planning on being in Corvette Poker Run Saturday and last time they did this there were 28 Corvettes in a row doing 130 mph. So, yesterday I had 4 new "Z" rated tires put on my 84 Vette and today I dropped her off to have the front-end checked out. It was handling great, but you never know....

Hi group: I have a problem with my '89 L98, it does not run right untill the coolant temp. gets up to about 150. Before it gets to this temp it stumbles and idles low (sometimes dies) after it reaches temp. it runes fine. If it had a carb I would think the auto choke was not working, the...

After driving in traffic, when I'd get home, once in a while I'd notice my brake lights on after I parked the car in the garage. At first I thought it was because I had quite a few miles on these brakes and it was about time I replaced them. I could get them to go off by pumping the pedal a few...
