I'm about to buy a 96 firebird 5.7 LT-1. I test drove it today, but it felt
kind of rough when in idle, but as soon as I steped on the gas, that thing
would spin tires. Is this a normal vibration with big motors? The oil
pressure would be at a quarter when idling, then half way or a ...

I've been lurking in this group for years and have owned an 82 for a
while that's in bad shape and doesn't run.  My coworker decided to buy
a new black vette last week and sold me his Pewter 99 FRC on
Saturday.  It's so nice to drive and look at!  Spending an hour or two

Howdy.
I looked at a 1998 Corvette today.  It has a few issues but it's
mostly what I'm looking for.  Dealer wants full book retail as
"Excellent Condition", of course.

Just bought a '75 Vert, 1 owner w/ 53k miles.  Receipts show both rear
trailing arms were 'rebuilt' about 8 years ago and car has only gone about
4K miles since.  I noticed both sides have a slight 'creaking' sound when I
drive beside a building, etc. I can hear the echo.  It's ...

Got roughly $10,000

I'm getting ready to fix up a '80 vette and am struggling with whether I
should restore it to stock or go custom. It's a LG4 that runs good but
is pretty beat up. Is there a value in restoring a ca smogged 305 cu in
 vette to original spec?

Regarding the old adage - "The newset is the best to buy" -
what about a C5 (2004 specifically) compared
to a ZR-1 (1995 specifically).
This car would be a driver not a garager.

I've put it off long enough, the paint job that is.
If anyone has a suggestion in the LA area it would be appreciated.
Also, a while back some joker mentioned that you can't just have any
schmoe paint a 'vette due to the glass body.

A friend of mine told me that GM does not make money with Corvette
sales, but that they continue to make the car just because it's
tradition boosts their image or whatever.  Is this true?  I didn't
know GM was in that bad of shape.

Have a 60 corvette but clock finally stopped after 47 years. Does any
one know where I can send it for repair? Casey

My neighbor has a 2000 that has lost the programming for the fob and
has no owners manual. Can someone tell me how to program this thing?
It's different than my '94.
Thanks

Had the CD modual replaced many years back by a place in Phoenix that
appears to be out of business. Anyone have a reliable place I can send my
Delco unit to for a replacement CD modual and a couple of LEDs?
TIA

At 36k miles my '96 needed brakes. Midas is just down the street and
I always took my old pickup there for basic repairs and never had a
problem. I figured "brakes is brakes" so I took the Corvette there for
new front rotors and pads all around.

...so it seems.
Was gone for the month of January here in LA and during that time there
was a couple of
days of freezing temps. When I hopped in the 'ol jalopy in February I
