    15th year BG plant homecoming reunion Sept 26 - 28 2018

    Another update. I heard back from Dave Chrisley, Bowling Green Assembly Corvette Club. He, or some of his associates are willing to help us get this event set up. The BGACC event is always the last weekend in September. If this group let's us in their event, that means we'll have to have...

    15th year BG plant homecoming reunion Sept 26 - 28 2018

    I did do some research on this trip today. I called the Hilton Garden inn, it's across the street from the Sloan convention center, and asked above setting up a group buy. Sounds like it's fairly easy to do, but, I'm to far out. They can only set something up if it's within a year, and I need...

    15th year BG plant homecoming reunion Sept 26 - 28 2018

    Park pass! I'm think one of the things we can do on this trip is visit Mammoth Cave National Park. If you are 62 or older, get one of these National Parks Lifetime passes for $10 (plus $10 handling fee), before 8/28/2017! After that the lifetime Senior pass price goes up to $80. Here's the...

    In 2013 we had a 10 year anniversary plant homecoming meet, that was a blast! Caddy started making our cars in 2003 for model year 2004, that's why we had the meet in 2003. How about we start planning a 15 year anniversary plant homecoming for 2018 now? The wifey and I are really missing our...

    Help! These damn doors!

    Just a thought here. But have you every changed out your battery in the key FOB? Maybe enough juice to start car but not operate the door receiver to unlock. Might be worth a try.

    Rear engine Vett's C8 in 2018: The Latest on the Mid-Engine Chevrolet Corvette Look at slide 11. It looks like the front of a XLR! At least the grill. Maybe they raid the old XLR parts bin.

    Help! Where is the "Key Lock Cylinder" that must be used to learn a new Fob?

    You have to "pop" out the little square cover to get to the key slot. The slot to "learn" a new fob is in the glove box.

    Long. But a must read for every XLR owner!

    Well, you're luckier than me! Coming back from one of the Bowling Green trips with the XLR a few years ago. A deer hit me, yea, HE hit me! I saw him, I stopped to wait, then he took off running scared! And he "danced" across my hood. Had to totally replace the grill and repaint the whole...
