Before we offer any assistance, do you have any posts in your past in C5 Gen or OT knocking the C4s that we should know about? and do you have proof that you've always waved to the C4 guys? A picture will do

Be careful admitting that, ch@0s will jump all over you, he never makes an error in judgement;

Ok, But I'm not the one that confuses a C4 with a F-body.. Wow!!

Who else here will confuse a C4 with an F-body?


ch@0s

But who cares, welcome and congrats on the car

Welcome to the C4 side! We dont mind that ya have another Vette but we are fiercely loyal to our "forgotten" generation cars so be careful what you say over on the other side

Well, no wonder you bought the 'ugliest' Vette, you're half blind

Welcome to our little corner of the forum

I make sure to wave at everybody when I'm cruising around, that way I don't hurt anyone's feelings

Now lets see some pics of this project
