Hey all. I am replacing my F55 shocks with C6Z06 shocks next Friday and I need to find someone or a dealership that has a Tech II that can delete the F55 option out of my 03. I don't know anyone here in McAlester that has one and the local dealership, Nix, has never done it and won't do it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Paint & Body in Tulsa area
I would like to recommend a great paint & body shop. I was rear ended while parked. I have a 08 silver widebody conv. 10,000 damage. After asking around and several estimates, settled on Premier Collision in Broken Arrow. They had to strip everything from the seats back, down to the bare frame. Ralph (Owner) was very professional to deal with. Kept me updated, and let me stop by to check on the progress anytime. The vette was returned looking better than it ever had. Paint matched perfectly & all body panels were aligned. If your Vette needs any Paint or body work give Ralph @ Premier Collision in Broken Arrow a call.

No doubt. You really have no idea how tough that is until you understand how these cars are assembled. The thickness of the bonding glue for the tub can completely kill the panel alignment around it. Good on them for doing it right.

Rebuild
This is the first time any body work has been done on my vette.(Widebody on when bought.) Yea you are right about the tub. Had to wait on the parts, and it is the last thing off and first when put back together, and is glued bonded together. Only down side to this rebuild is the lingering glue smell.

I forgot how to post.......
Me and Aimee are going to a friends house near Branson Thursday night. We will be in Eureka around noon Friday.
Looks like jeans and jackets this year. Cold street and cold tires smoke real easy!
If everyone has not heard, John the owner of Apple Blossom has terminal cancer. He may not be around at night but we were asked to keep it low around 10 in case he is staying at the motel. Just passing this along, do as you please. I'm keeping it cool cause the wife said shes not driving home again this year.
Beer only
