HI, TIME IS RUNNING OUT ON THIS TRIP!!WE NEED TO KNOW WHO IS INTERESTED, AS THE ROOMS NEED TO BE RELEASED SOON. THE DETAILS ARE IN MY THREAD IN THE EVENTS FORUM TITLED (XLR GATHERING IN NH IN JULY) AND IS DATED 2-21-14.:wave:

I agree! Al

when I go to the parts store I just give them the make model & year, haven't been asked what chassis car has?? Al

Hi Tim, let me expand on this, you can say the c6 was built on the xlr frame BUT let's go back. the xlr frame is a modified c5 frame. c6 frame is modified from xlr. so to review: xlr built from c5, 1 1/2 inches longer for the N* eng. c6 built on xlr frame?? remember the xlr/c6 frames are about...

All xlr chassis are the same.GM used a modified c5 chassis for the xlr and the c6 corvette. :) Al

good point Amy but dan's car is silver and when you order you need to state a color, he can order an 07 in silver/saves painting. I had to paint mine,no satin nickel in 06 and up. later,Al :)

I agree, Al

original size tires,run or non run flats,go by the door jamb sticker. not max press. on side of tire.

Well done and good job!! now Crestmont needs to refund you some money! but good luck with that? either way she's back up and running.:) Al

Hi Dan,the cable is the same,it's made very well,it's the bushing on each end. the grill is from a 07 platinum edition.you have to remove the front bumper w/grille to replace, about $450?for the grille @ the dealer, not sure it was worth it?? :)

bean counters:dunno::dunno: I suggest if Mike is buying a cable get/ have it installed BEFORE it breakes, I think this is something he could. do :) Al

Hi Ami,easier for me laying down on jack stands( I'm old/no lift),4 nuts at front pipe,slide pipe aside don't remove them,36 8mm bolts and remove tunnel plate, easy, now you have access to cable. YOUR PROBLEM is the cable has an adjustment @ the trans. end and has to much slack in it,needs to be...

Hi Tim, the cable is the enclosed type and well made EXCEPT for the plastic grommets/bushings on each end,they snap on the ball studs of the shift and trans leavers. when they fail the shift lever will move freely but will not engage any gears. I replaced mine as preventive maint. it didn't...

Hi, today I changed the shift cable in my xlr. it was not broken but at almost 10 yrs old? I'm very pro maint. don't wait for things to break or wearout. the cable is well made it's the cheap plastic grommets on each end, with the heat in the tunnel I think they dryout and fail? this is much...

HI Pat, if you want a get together check out your post and mine last feb. in the events forum. I put a trip together to NH in july?? Al :)

Hi Kenny, first let me welcome you to a great forum!! the problems w/04 and early 05's will mostly be corrected if they have any kind of miles on them,maybe 20/30K? problems were obvious early like leaking radiators and were fixed.same with the top,mostly needed new sensors and reprograming...

Hi, are you selling individual wheels and do you have one in like new condition? Thanks, Al

I had my 05 changed to later lights w/the jumpers. Cubby you are the answer MAN!!!:cool::cool: Al

Hi Amy, is it a chip/gouge in the wheel or just the clearcoat that's coming off? if it's gouged/curb scraped it'll have to be repaired/welded then recleared. if it's just the clear they can be stripped and recleared. hope this helps. Al:dunno:

I'm not sure,there is a gasket that you can see looking at them but maybe it's part of them.mine were weepy,not really leaking and the tech just went and replaced them.of course under gmpp there's the more they do the better!!!. I think gismo did his own and may be able to add to this. Al
