Yea I was on my local forum for a while but all I did was get criticized on topics as a corvette owner and I also have one of the faster cars in the area so of course no one liked that either I guess the stereo type is really taken serious by those who have either never owned or even driven one before idk but it was getting outrageous so I said hey might as well go see what its like on the other side.

Hi new member and I have no idea how to use this.

I own two Corvette's 1964 convertible and a 2005 convertible. [64 not matching numbers.]

I had problems with the 2005 and the problem to me was a design failure that cost a lot of money. Defroster door broke and the dash had to be removed, second one that dealer did and also a 2005. The new item installed was beefed up in the area the door exploded under the dash. I sent an e-mail to Bowling Green a waste of time and they said sorry and talk to Chevrolet? Do they have a consumer bitch e-mail address?

I also have some knock offs type wheels that I want to sell can I do that on here?

Had Corvettes all my life but I'm retired now and lost track of who to contact etc. Live on Cape Cod.

Bill,

The question on the '64 you should post on the C2 Section of the forum under tech or general and the question of the '05 you should post on the C6 Section under tech or general. The members of those forums should be able to help you out.

The knock off type wheels - I assume are for the '64, you should post them on the C2 Parts for Sale section.

You will gain more exposure this way and the threads will apply to the particular generation of Corvette.

On the top half of the screen you'll see a red bar with USER CP and then FORUMs - just move the pointer on your computer there and then you'll see the pull down for the different forums.

Hope this helps!
