BSeery Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Sorry, my tools are all packed and I will be out of town. Otherwise you know I would be one of the first to lend a garage and some help.Maybe Andrew and Melissa can give some space. I think there was talk about a "Corvette Sunday" for some caliper painting. Maybe everyone could hook that all up for one day's worth of Corvette work. Which car will you be bringing to the GB06 cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey guys, thanks for all ther responses - i think Eddies on sunday may be the best bet, as there should be plenty of extra hands (well everyone should at least have 1 as the other should have beer or coffee or donuts!)Eddie -see ya sunday then!and which car i will be driving to GB06 will all depend on which cars i HAVE at the time!i'm starting to get a little irritated - but i'm not gonna go there!

Drewstein Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 If you're anywhere near Scottsdale, I'll lend some space to ya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anmracing2 Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Melissa can lend you her garage & tools too. Looks like we will all be at Eddies though, but if there isn't enough room just let us know, we can fire up the grill too...Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 1FASTC4 Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Eddie, you have your seats out? Going to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie44 Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Eddie, you have your seats out? Going to? My plan is to pull the seats out on Sat and if I have time I'm going to strip them down then too. I honestly haven't taken them out yet cause I just love driving the damn thing. I have a Mazda 6 as a daily driver but it just isn't the same! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 1FASTC4 Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Well I was going to ask to stop by just to have peek(embarrassed a bit to invite myself over) but lost the bolt infront of cylinder #1 on the headers today so I'll be changing the header gasket....not a major project really... just another pain.I heard the exact second the gasket gave..... southbound on the 51, cruising blissfully along... knew immediately what the sound was......heart sank.

Eddie44 Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Well I was going to ask to stop by just to have peek(embarrassed a bit to invite myself over) Everybody understand that these Corvette Saturdays / Sundays are what make ACE great! Everybody is welcome stop by and learn a little, teach a little or just BS. We all know a little bit about Vettes and related mechanical jobs but combined we're experts! Anybody and Everybody is welcome if you want to learn how Vette seats or headlights are done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie44 Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 You're certainly welcome to come on over Sunday and fix the gasket. It would no doubt be a better job with all the supervision that will be around. I've got tools to do just about anything short of a complete rebuild.

Guest UVETTYA Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 I'm thinking of putting Sylvania 9005's in my Z. Anyone have experience changing bulbs?

P51tj Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 Just put the Sylvania silver stars in ours 2 months ago. Small hands and major flexibility is required! Not a bad task overall and the results are better than stock, don't expect to much and you will be pleased! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put them in my '01 Grand Prix and it made a noticeable difference. I do have small hands, but everything else is HUGE! :D Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
