GM generally frowns on you using pictures from their media (brochure pictures, etc.), but I've never seen them go after a club for their own pictures ...

Good morning, all!
Still here at home with the contractors ... ... it threatened to snow and than didn't around Philadelphia.

I don't have any pictures handy, but I've seen C6 wheels on a C4 and it looked pretty good!

I saw one on ebay, so I bought it, mine has no red left in it, it's all faded. Got the emblem, it's very nice. Then I looked at the job, what a pain. I looked for some articles and I see that I need some pal nuts and double sided tape. From memory, so other folks can correct me. I was able to re-use the nuts that were on the old emblem. Nothing holds the outer ring, just the center section is taped. Be careful not to drop the nuts into the innards of the hood (don't ask me why I know about this ).

I'm sure you did this already, but with the key to ON and the engine not running, Datamaster connected and running, you should be able to see what voltage and percentage you're getting then. I agree - even my (very dumb) 1985 computer gives me this ...

Thanks for the information - I looked in my various fuel injection books back when you made you first post and couldn't find a specific discussion. I think I may need some tuning references ...

Really? You'll have a group of Corvettes here? Should be (I'm totally guessing) between 75 and 150, with a lot of 1958s (since it's their 50th anniversary year). There will be old and new 'Vettes that have been driven from all over the US - last year someone drove a 1957 from California to Boston. I'll be there in my 1985, since the road tour is part of the next NCRS award I'm going for. I believe it's Saturday, July 19th, but not everything has been planned out yet ...

Good morning, all!
Nothing super groovy for the weekend - we'll take one the 'Vettes out tomorrow morning, but it's only to go shopping ... ... mostly football watching this weekend.

It seems to be more than just promotion. They cannot say it at all. Not even "So, who do you think will win the Superbowl?" At least that is how the radio station was spinning it. Sounds like spin to me - I studied this in business law ...

I believe that they're not allowed to use it as part of a station promotion - this is why consumer electronics dealers always say something like "get your new TV in time for the Big Game".
That's how trademark law works; if you don't protect it you don't have it any more ...

you have no idea how many of those two-tones I ran into when trying to help j3studio get his 85! Too true! They actually made more blue two-tones than light blue metallics in 1985 ... ... there was a two tone blue 1985 at the NCRS National Convention this year. Sharp car - had the cloth sports seats.
