Won't start
Guess I'll be in the garage today. Drove the Vette in the garage Thur. night, everything was fine. Went to leave this morning (Sat.) and nothing.
Radio comes on, but does not even think about trying to turnover. Maybe the starter is not getting power or the clutch is not engaging that electronic thing to let it start. I'll keep ya posted on what I find.

and our keys need cleaning sometimes-I use rubbing alcohol-don't want my vette to drive under the influence. Might have your battery checked too.
