    1945 Kamakaze attack.

    My good friend Harry Frey was on CV-2 USS Lexington in the Battle of the Coral Sea - at least until his feet got wet (to hear him say it). These men were the saviors of our way of life. It's just too bad we have been unable to honor that legacy.

    Help! Dealer Service suggestions..... no trust

    Water wetter is a great product and commonly used on track situations that won't allow ethylene glycol. It very effectively increases your thermal coefficient of your fluid and takes more heat away from the engine hotspots. It levels out the temperature gradient. Pragmatically (it depends...

    Help! Dealer Service suggestions..... no trust

    $500 - that left a mark for $100.00 in parts and a i/2 day of work (if tinkering is your thing). The only hard part is getting a few air bubbles freed up from any of the three mention systems. Radiator fluid longevity is better than it used to be as MT said. I agree with his input 100%...

    Welcome and thanks for the geography lesson! Now I know - William Carlisle brought a sawmill to this area (Lake Livingston Texas), he named the town he created, Onalaska. Carlisle also named the towns of Onalaska, Wisconsin and Onalaska, Washington.

    jack it up......where?

    They work great! Just ebay 'corvette jacking puck" You will get your choice of many colors styles and prices. I bought a set for my corvette and they were certainly a big help; however, I had a case of the dumb ass and delivered the pucks and a high-end 12V compressor with the car when I sold...

    Great! I've never tried a "hide-a-key" box. I guess this is as good a time as any.

    Key stash?

    Thanks! My wife and I have many vehicles and any are fair game at any time - I'd like to keep the key with the car. Besides, I hate a bulky wallet.

    The Cadillac XLR was no Luxury Corvette?

    Editorial? - A couple sentences and a few pics. Certainly everyone is entitled to an opinion. I was replacing a C5 and going after a C6 when I bought my XLR. Certainly the XLR is one of the best all around touring cars I've owned and I've had several (C2, C3, C5, BMW 2002, BMW 320i...
