baller :D
Love it! :thumbup:Oh hell no Ray :screwy: Nah just needed a lil project and this came up. But after the woman drove it home, and to the mall to pick up my daughter, I think this project might be me fixing it up and me not driving it :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: And now the missuses and my daughter are not seeing eye to eye about who is going to drive it. My daughter turns 16 this year. The Expedition is what I was going to give my daughter, she loves it and has been keeping it clean, and all. But now with the vette things have changed. So I say to hell with them all, it's MINE!!!!! :thumbup:
Are we admitting a mid-life crisis now Mark? ;D

Ya have made some progress, working on cleaning up the marker lights reverse lights, etc. lotta overspray or something on them. Went to buy a air cleaner for it and I said the magic word, corvette, and they said 79 bucks for a fram. Are you frickin kidding me, I asked the dude. WTF :mad: Checked out summit and can get a K&N lifetime for ONLY 69 bucks :screwy: so it is ordered. Still waiting on the window rubbers and the handle. WAIT, I did get one killer deal today :thumbup: I needed 2 1156 bulbs that were burnt out, and I didnt have to say the dreaded vette name so I got them for 4 bucks :screwy: :screwy: :screwy: Hot dammmn I am on a roll :banghead:and they say, fords are expensive to build :o ha, thats what you get for going to the dark side....
Omar, I actually was thinking about going but, I have to work on the wifes car. It's a dammn chebbie :banghead:We try to get there when the gates open and be home by 10.

So Mark....You figure out a solution for the spoiler yet ??? ??? ???No not yet, took it for a spin yesterday, and has a bad coolant leak :banghead: so I need to find out where that is :banghead:
i got two ferds on engine stands! im not hating i enjoyed my ford while it lasted! they are all the same once you get all of the shit off of them, as long as it isnt an oldsmobile! sorry GC
its what i do best! but its all in good fun!Ya thanks Josh, and I am starting to learn that, and the cross reference deal. Just some things that I am replacing definately are year and car specific :thumbdown:
did you ever find the coolant leak? probably something simple! also quit saying corvette when you go to get parts...start cross referencing stuff...you'll find alot of the chevy stuff used the same as vette! there was some trick stuff to the vette, but not all of it! my friend just bought one pretty cheap from the shop i used to part time at, and we did extensive work to it, and it wasnt astronomical amounts of money, and that was a 2001 Z51 package car
Oh there you go Josh, now ya going to get GC all in a tizzy 8)
uh mark....didnt you go out and buy another ferd because the first ferd was broked, and the ferd dealer couldnt seem to find the problem? least a chebbie you can figure out how to fix them, and not worry bout the spark plugs blowing out every 5 minutes
Oh prolly cause was working on the project :banghead: Finally got the door handle off, pain in the ass, and the dammn door lock fell apart :banghead: So the spare parts will have to wait a day or so. Now I am going to go and mow the lawns and let out a little steam :sly:
Mark, I'm not entirely sure this Vette is worth this amount of pain.....
Just bring it to Blythe, I'll get it out of your way, you can have a happy, harmonic family and professional life............ ;)
Ray

What is it with you chebbie guys ??? Don't you know that duct tape works better than electrical tape. So I is waiting on parts and thought I would take apart the steering to find out what is making the blinkers not turn off and the turn indicators not work on the dash, and Lo and Behold more elictrical tape :screwy:More bla.bla........i did not do that....geez!
More bla.bla........i did not do that....geez!Ya Ya Ya shorty........ Just giving you crap, don't take your shortcomings on working on a chebbie and get defensive >:D

OK the plastic welder is on order, I went SUPER cheap ;D 13 bucks from harbor freight, and ya ya I know you get what ya pay for, but we will see. After alot of research needed to replace the bulbs for the turn signals and the high beams, and lo and behold had to take half the frickin car apart :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
Frickin chebbie guys, dont ya think the fuses were the first thing to check ??? The blinker lights, the high beam lights, the tach, none of it working. After a couple of days and taking the lcd display apart, putting it all back together, it ALL worky now :thumbup: I am just un mickey mousing what the previous owner did :screwy: Are all you chebbie guys like this ??? >:D

They had a variety of them at good ole harbor freight, which I opted for the high dollar (12 bucks) LOL one. Not bad of a deal really came with what is basicallly a soldering iron, with a 3/4 x 3/4 soldering head, a wire brush to clean the head, a little chickenshit stand for the iron, and about 25 plastic welding strips, and also some wire mesh, which my dumbass wasn't to sure how to use. Said in all the directions was perfect for use on the plastic/rubber parts of autos. I tested on the door panel which was cracked almost in half, and it turned out tits, stronger than shinola >:D So next was the back part, and after prepping it, welding it, then sanding smooth, I was done. Even took a 3/4 extension bar and pushed pretty dammnn hard on it to see if I could break it, and it didn't :thumbup: and a few of these since I didn't fruck it up :beer: :beer: :beer:
