Default First Orders Placed

I am keeping my 98 stock, but I did want to take measures to keep it protected. I ordered a set of lloyd floor mats with cargo mat in black with silver logo.

I also ordered the neoprine seat covers with the c5 logo to keep the seats from getting worn down over the years to come.

To keep the sun off the big dash when sitting in parking lots I have a black dash cover coming with the C5 logo also, I know some do not like these but its not a permanant fixture, just somethign to keep the sun off the dash when its outside.

Other then that all I got was the LS1 ID plate that goes over the cigarette lighter door area.

That and the clear bra pieces for the front and around the wheels is all that is planned. I am looking to get it in for the routine things here soon, oil, tranny fluid filter, fuel filter, brake fluid, coolant flush, maybe new rear end fluid, wheels balanced and then its off to storage hopefully in a car capsule until spring.

I plan to use all GM OEM items except the oil will continue to be mobil one as the previous owner started a good thing there.

The speed parts are being saved for the 89 that I am still working on here and there when I get time.


Will try to get photos up soon, it was dark when I rolled into the garage this evening.
