The front is a little too high........it sometimes is difficult to see over the hood in some cases.........So, the front end needs to be lower

For such a physically big car not enough room inside, I could be doing with the seat moving back a couple more inches and by modern standards the brakes are poor, ok in a standard 81 but scary with a bit of horsepower.

In the quest for more power, there comes a time when you fear you've gone too far,,and are afraid to put it to the test because you'll end up breaking something else.

Re: What bugs you about your C3? (SLICKMAN)
What bugs me most is that just about one hour ago I disconnected the battery and covered the vette up for the rest of this year. My pinion seal went last week and we are very tight on money right now. I have had this car for four years now and it has been down for most of this time. I have only put 2,000 miles on the car in four years. I can't even sell it because I have way too much money invested in it now. Sorry about the rant, just a bad week.

Re: What bugs you about your C3? (Richard Cooper)
im gonna have to agree about it not being done yet!!! but the main thing that bugs me is the fact that if its a part for a corvette it costs 3 times as much. its taking all my money! oh well the offers from the hunnies make it A-OK... :cool:
P.S. The cabin heat sux too, but im gonna fix that while my interior is out.

That it's too heavy.
That it weighs too much.
That it has an abundance of poundage.
That it's so heavy it has its own gravity.
That it needs to lose 300 or 400 pounds.
Also:
That there's no such thing as a "simple repair job."
That it's still subject to Smog Check.

Re: What bugs you about your C3? (The Dude)
Okay I just got back from cruising the beach in the beast so I take back what I said earlier, take a drive and you'll remember why you love your Vette so much you put up with the bulls@#% that comes with it.
