    Headlamp Washer Hoses

    Has anyone had the bumper off that can give me an idea of how these are routed? Only thing I can figure since they are so long is they run along the bottom maybe and ends loop around fog lamps? There are 2 push clips on each side like they get attached somewhere. Haven't played with it since...

    Headlamp Washer Hoses

    Ok, I'm jumping ahead here on my rebuild post but I was test fitting some of the front end parts last week and I'm trying to figure out how these hoses for the headlamp washers are supposed to be routed. All that was left of the original hose is sticking out of the front and it looks like it...

    Solved LED DRL problem.

    I don’t know what would be different then. As soon as I hit Reply to Thread it comes up just like the picture but as soon as I start typing it zooms way up and it all disappears. You just have to zoom out and scroll screen around but it’s still all there. Otherwise I have no idea. I’d do a...

    Solved LED DRL problem.

    Posting on an Iphone I posted that picture on my laptop but am doing this posting on my Iphone 7 and it looks exactly the same as when I did it on laptop, same boxes are above where I’m typing. I will try posting the same picture and see if it works. Just did it, works exactly the same. Kevin

    Solved LED DRL problem.

    Posting pictures It's not hard to post a picture. Right above the spot where you are typing are a bunch of boxes. 2nd set down and 4th from left is one with what looks like a picture frame with I guess a tree in it and next to it is what looks like a film. That is what you have to click on to...

    I saw this car in person when I stopped by for a quick visit on a roadtrip a month or so ago. It's every bit as nice as described and very nice paint! Kevin

    Finally got my XLR, Now to Rebuild it!

    Typed VIN into Google So for some reason I typed the VIN into Google and this is what came up. Original auction pictures! I was shocked. :jaw: Well I see what the divots and tears are from in the interior! Needless to say I passed on that one but it opened my eyes to what was...

    Finally got my XLR, Now to Rebuild it!

    Salvage XLR's So after a system failure on one laptop and a hard drive failure on the new one I'm finally getting some pictures back together to post but in the mean time I thought I'd post some pictures of I think the first salvage XLR I thought about buying quite a few years ago. It was an...

    headlights

    Well sounds like a good project and I'd probably go in on it if it happens. I never heard of a silicone mold to cast parts though but I haven't ever played with any of that. We do make silicone molds of parts we make though at work to check internal features you couldn't get any other way...

    headlights

    The one that was listed on Ebay was listed as "Used/Excellent" but obviously it is a new one and he is the guy that makes them? Does anyone have a 3D scan of one or something like a SolidWorks model of one? I'm not sure but a 3D printed one would not work as it has to be solid and clear but if...

    Replacing Broken Windows So now that car moves around I wanted to replace the broken passenger window and quarter window. First was the quarter window. Basically just unsnapping a few fasteners that clip in to window frame that hold the headliner material and then 3 or 4 screws that...

    First Test Ride Well not really a test "ride" but more like driving up the alley and turning around just to see if it moves, steers and stops now that the radiator and condenser are secured. First off, I've ran it for probably well over an hour just in the driveway warming it up and checking...

    Finally got my XLR, Now to Rebuild it!

    Skid Frame Damage Actually the new/used skid frame was cracked. On the side the 2 horns mount to, the welds were cracked where it connected to the main frame of it. I took it to a welder here and he rewelded and reinforced it all. I can see where that part takes a LOT of abuse. It sits so low...

    Finally got my XLR, Now to Rebuild it!

    Thanks for the advise. It is going to frame shop when I get it a little further along. From what I have seen so far I haven't seen any other damage but once they check it over I'll know for sure. He has lots of experience repairing Corvettes. Yes, the radiator and condenser were hanging and I...

    Finally got my XLR, Now to Rebuild it!

    Thanks for the well wishes and also thanks for the pictures. Looks like I have the relays in the right spots except for the ones not in yet (fog lamps and headlight washers ) I think. Didn't know there was a fusebox inside. I'll have to check that next. So the spindle and A arm came a couple...

    Finally got my XLR, Now to Rebuild it!

    Sure, If you'd like to send a picture that would be great. I think I have them all correct but still have a couple I didn't put in yet. Also, yes, I did pretty much check out cradle and rest of damage. Didn't look like it moved or affected anything else but I will be taking into the frame shop...

    Finally got my XLR, Now to Rebuild it!

    Ok, so next day I had a little time to look at everything and pull front wheel off. First off I noticed wheel was broke. Never saw one damaged like this. Outsides were perfect but interior was broken out. Can only figured hit something and it went right through tire and broke rim maybe...

    Hi Everyone, So I've already posted a brief history of this in the New Member Introductions a few weeks ago but I'll repeat it here now but with way more details and pictures as I work on this project. "Been looking at this forum for years on and off and had been looking for a rebuilder XLR...

    Finally got my XLR yesterday

    Thanks to all Thanks for all the encouragement and advice on and offline from quite a few members. Have the car running and semi driveable now. Still gathering all the parts I need to complete this and I was thinking of starting a thread on what I'm doing to rebuild this if anyone was...
