I figured I would update this thread since I realize that in 13 days I will have been a member for a full year. And its nearly my 1 year anniversary date of owning my vette.
Since Ive purchased it, I have done a little "engineering" to the one seperating rear quarter pannel. Since the newer interior and the older electronics did not all mesh, and I could not use the factory hook up to get the HVAC blower motor, I had it wired up on its own switch to the interior of the car. The temp and other controls work through the HVAC head unit. Got the tach working again with the help of Denny's Corvette Restorations...Repaired the driver's side door handle that would not open the door from the outside, and now looking for side glass to replace the scuffed glass on the sides of the car from the busted door handle. Oh yeah... and got the wiper motor replaced, so now there is nothing that can stop me from driving it every day (with the exception of snow)....
Thank You CF for a GREAT 1st year....
