Really could not find a forum to put this..but... I think at one time I saw a small wrench for a key chain that is meant for antenna removal. Not a spanner wrench to remove the mounting nut but a wrench to remove the mast for storage..yep you guessed it..my Vette did not come with an auto...

Try WD-40 (it takes off most all adhesives) should not affect the plastic like lacquer thinners will. Still try in in a non conspicuous spot. c-ya ToddG :beer:

Bought this at a garage sale. Works like new...not a bad 20 bux spent. Perfect for the '81. :thumbs: c-ya ToddG

Replaced with a new one....not a minute too soon. It was ready to go. I knew it was bad as it was frozen. Bought a new one last Tuesday and finally put it on yesterday. c-ya ToddG :beer:

Decided to replace the seats in my '81. They were not tore up just worn. Went with Corvette America, complete mounted in my original trim of silver. They had free shipping.. can't wait till they get here!! c-ya ToddG :clap:

To get that big of tire under there, what is the ET (off set) of the rim? I think it looks great but I would gander to say that your 0-60 is a bit slower now due to the mass involved..., or?? c-ya ToddG :drink:

Here is a wierd one. When the car is running there is no check eng light. Car runs fine. Turn car off and remove key Chk eng light stays on and will not go off. Start car up light goes away...turn off remove key, light back on. I have tried disconecting the bat for 3o min or so to see if it...

how exactly does it work? I had to disconnect mine because I broke it. I know one wire was ground and the other was connected to a plunger so when the t top was locked the pin extended and pushed the switch. That is the part I broke. the wires are just hanging in there now. Now when i lock the...

Looking to see if the driver of a yellow late '70 (nice vette) frequents this board. We have met a few times on the Blvd, early morns on the way to work. I drive the silver '81. If you do frequent, drop me a line . Would like to meet up and talk shop. c-ya ToddG :mobeer:

Cruise through Eastern Oregon. Did around 150 miles through the back country. Weather was perfect!! These pics were taken about 50 miles from where I live in Idaho :clap: c-ya ToddG :yahoo:

I asked this on another forum but I need to recheck the answer. I need to know the length of the '81 engine oil dip stick. The length including the base seat. The dip stick is located on the passenger side. Then I also need to know the length from the tip until the full mark. I changed my oil...

How can I keep my the A/C on my 81 up to par with out doing a conversion? or is this not possible. If it has to be converted how hard is it? I see at the local parts store conversion kits in a box for around 40 bucks but I dunno.... It works but I would like to get it re-charged. c-ya ToddG :beer:

I bought this car brand new in '97 in Wiesbaden Germany and built it in my old shop in Frankfurt. Five minutes after picking it up I was bouncing it off the rev limiter. Two weeks after that I pulled the motor and installed one I built myself. (I was building before I even bought the car) The...

First off, for a guy...I like cats and so does my WIFE (nuff said). I do not like cats on Corvettes. I have two out door cats. My garage has a cat door....you know the rest of the story. This is what I have to do to protect the car. A car cover is not enough as they have claws and nick paint. to...
