98 c5 abs/traction/steering column problems
My 98 c5 convertable is falling apart before my eyes. ABS, Traction Control, Service Steering Column Lock, HVAC are all out. I can't find anyone to fix it or the parts don't exist anymore. Any suggestions?

There is a fix for each problem. just a matter of time and money.
ABS.TCS: probably this sticky will help: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...m-success.html I think the aftermarket guys are trying to package this as a fix for 98-00. I heard Mark Rose at Vettenuts was working on this, call him at 615-896-6100
Column lock: well, that is about the most posted subject on this forum. A little searching will help here. First is a new battery, after that, a CLB and that is about it.
HVAC: $$ depends on the problem. As far as I know there is no parts sourcing issue, a matter of replacing what is broke. However, depending on who does it, this one is probably gonna cost you the most of your 3 issues. If you need a new evap coil, that will cost because of what needs to be removed to access (e.g. the engine or at least the heads)
