89 Issues on 89vette (Short List)
Hey Guys... been away for awhile and things... sadly enough.. have gone downhill.
1. Headlights -
Does anyone know of a conversion to projector style? Never-ending issues with the pop-ups (not necessarily converting, just curious)
2. Front Suspension -
Drive 5 min and she starts pulling to the right... HARD.. 5 min later, pulls just a litlle.. TieRod?
3. New Shocks On All Corners -
But when I'm coming around the corner with force..... a little bump makes me skip like a rock on a smooth lake.
4. Craig Marcho -
Dude I know I talked to you about a chip, but in the interim I've had to go to 2 funerals and a job restructuring.. Sorry, nothing personal will send money at first opportunity (time will tell)
5. Exhaust -
From Mainfold to tail-pipe, how hard is it?
6. A/C Controls -
Still in search of A/C Parts to rebuild what's left of my controls and AC System. Need.... New Compressor as well as ...........
A) Head Unit controls (Ecklers $65 Sound Good)
B) New Mixer Motor ($55 From GM.. Got it)
C) NEEEEEEEEEED a new control module for the driver's side.. ANYONE?
That's the short list.... (really, how sad is that
) As usually thanks in advance for your help, y'all haven't let me down yet.

Re: 89 Issues on 89vette (89VetteWIP)
Usually our headlights respond well to three little nylon bushings.
Definitely get that front end looked at, soon.
If you mean from the collectors back it should be relatively easy, assuming you can catch enough air to work comfortably.
For A/C parts you might try http://www.contemporatycorvette.com/
