I have only contacted one, Fremont Chevrolet, but it wants a $5000 markup on a Grand Sport. I have a deposit at MacMulkin, but wanted to give local dealers an opportunity to get my money. ]]> Northern California joeflyer https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/northern-california/4992517-buying-a-new-corvette.html https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/northern-california/4989361-c5-r-headlight-and-radiator-fans-complete-free-new-post.html Wed, 29 Apr 2026 21:08:56 GMT Gone Gone ]]> Northern California tinsleybob https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/northern-california/4989361-c5-r-headlight-and-radiator-fans-complete-free.html https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/northern-california/4989155-transmission-rebuild-in-east-bay-new-post.html Tue, 28 Apr 2026 20:38:44 GMT My 2003 C5 Z06 is stuck in 6th gear and thus effectively inoperable. The rear main seal, torque tube bearings, master/slave cylinders, and relevant fluids were replaced <400 miles ago. The torque tube, bushings, and clutch were verified to be in excellent condition, so the problem is internal to the transmission. Does the forum have any good recommendations for a transmission rebuild or replacement? Something local to the East Bay or Tri-Valley would be great. Thanks in advance!

Update: I decided to take my car to Schuck's Transmissions in Dublin, based on prior comments. However, I plan to order the TDP Stage 2 rebuild kit (or equivalent) and have them install that. ]]> Northern California DarkTrooper007 https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/northern-california/4989155-transmission-rebuild-in-east-bay.html https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/northern-california/4988141-high-speed-driving-experience-auction-to-benefit-the-kids-at-st-jude-new-post.html Wed, 22 Apr 2026 22:49:39 GMT https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/off-topic/4987051-precision-exotics-driving-experience-auction-benefitting-the-kids-at-st-jude.html Precision Exotics has donated the opportunity to drive one... https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...t-st-jude.html
