Kinda feel stupid writing this and I know this will probably be a long shot but I also know this forum is filled with a lot of great people as well. I owned a 2007 coupe about 10 months ago but my mom ran into some major health problems and was put on some very expensive medication that she could not really afford so I stepped up to the plate and traded in my 2007 coupe for a Kia Soul which cut my payments and insurance in half and I used that plus positive cash to give to my parents to help them out with the medication. They ended up finding a grant a few months ago to help with the medication so I was just recently able to get back into another corvette a 1999 C5 corvette that I got for a great price and it even had some performance mod's that have been already done to it . It also came with some extra parts which I sold and was planning on getting a few starter pieces under the hood or in the interior until the Fun Nazzi (AKA) the wife came along and swipe most of the money I love doing cosmetic stuff and I'm jonesing to do some mods ( so far the only mod I've done was the home made Grand Sport stripe on the drivers fender ). My coupe is a Black on Black automatic and I am planning on doing a Red and black theme under the hood and maybe some Red accents in the interior as well. My question is does anybody have any hammy down parts laying around like engine dress up parts in chrome, Red, carbon fiber or Black or Red/Black interior pieces who would be willing to donate to a good home and a great corvette.



Thanks in advance

 

It's "Hand me down" not hammy! I really gotta search for those extra red grab handle covers for you brother! I'll help with what I can!

 

What are the inlet and outlet dimensions of the connection between your throttle body and air bridge? If both are 4" I have a red silicone coupler you can have for the cost of shipping.

 

welcome to the C5 world and i wish and hope for the best for your parents!! question? how do you like switching from the c6 to the c5?

 

Thanks Rick,
I love my wife to death but she can be a big buzz kill sometimes
Oh crap her she comes

Thanks Ed but it already has a Red coupler on there


That's what I love about this forum folks helping folks

 

I like the ride of the C6 better but I really think I like the body lines on the C5 better

 

One great thing about the C5 is it only takes a few hundred to make it handle better than a base C6 (using C6Z shocks and C6 Z51 sway bars), straight bolt in.

 

I agree and it already has both installed by the previous owner
