Makes me feel pretty good with my purchase of #33 NM with just under 34,000 miles!

I'm now having issues with Genevieve not letting her trunk open. I had a few issues the last time I put the top down and now this happens. I'm no expert on the sensor but I know for a fact that the "e-key" as someone put it, is mechanically connected by a cable from the switch in the bumper to...

Not much so far... At least what we're all looking for!

Al, I'm thinking of heading down to the XXX in Issaquah tomorrow (June 2) for the Convertible's Only get together I just found out about in CruZin' magazine. Since we only live a few miles apart on Hwy 9 thought we could meet up at Frontier Village on the way down. Do you have time tomorrow...

I've been attending the Big Sky Meets since 2004. This time I had my son drive my 76 Corvette and a friend from work with his 2016 joined in the weekend. I'm a member at large of the Funseekers Corvette and Yacht Club of Whitefish, MT so I knew a few folks that were going to be there. They...

Looking forward to Thursday when I take Genevieve to Montana and meet all her cousins. She gave me a bit of trouble with the trunk lid not wanting to operate properly but a quick (albeit expensive) trip to my nearest Cadillac Dealer fixed her issue (relearned). Now it's time to get her cleaned...

Foryasoul; Don't sell it yet, check out Top Hydraulics! They are a sponsor now on this Forum. He does awesome work!

I'd be curious about the details of the NM Edition that you're going to see at the RM Auction. Please keep us updated on Mileage, what number it is and the condition and obviously the price.

Debbie, how is the progress on #101 coming along? Would love to see some pic's. Good to know that another one survived. I'm enjoying the heck out of #33 now that all the hydraulic cylinders for the top are in great working order!

Welcome aboard from just up the street! I mentioned to some of the other Washingtonians that we should have a get together somewhere soon.

Welcome aboard fellow Washingtonian! Been a while since I checked in on the new members (kind of new myself). I also bought mine out of state (Austin, TX) but I had a friend check it out for me so it wasn't as blind as yours! Would love to have a Washington get together sometime soon!

Dan, I also think Top Hydraulics is our best friend. I loaned my car to him this winter and as you can see in the video's, he went through the entire car showing all of us how relatively easy it is to remove and replace all the cylinders and pump! I replaced 2 of the cylinders myself before...

About time someone came to their senses!!! I have my order in!!!!

MGibson, Yes you have several in the area, 7 all together who take turns every year hosting the statewide meet. My favorite club is the Funseekers Corvette and Yacht Club in Whitefish. I've been a member at large since the late 80's. They have a great club and when they host the meet, it is the...

I know of one XLR that is going to a Corvette Meet this year! This year the Hellgate Corvette Club is hosting the Big Sky meet in beautiful Missoula, Montana. Okay so she will be following our 1976 Corvette driven by my son, but she will get to experience all the fun and beauty of Western...

UPDATE for leaking pumps. Top Hydraulics now has a YouTube video for us XLR DIYers for the Pump Removal and Reinstallation. YouTube He says the videos for the other 8 cylinders is coming and once he's done, I hope to get my car back!!! :cool:

Aloha, I too have had leaking cylinders for my top. I found Top Hydraulics and being that I'm on the west coast north of Florence, OR I decided to contact them to find out more about their service. After talking to Klaus the owner, I decided to try them out. My initial impression is that...

Seeking source for reproduction lights So I just sent off an email to the folks that operate a little restoration shop in SLC to see if they would be interested in further discussions on making some lights for us. I will keep you posted as the news comes back to me. Fingers crossed!

I saw that episode too and thought it would be nice if someone could do that for existing parts that are hard to come by. I wouldn't mind reaching out to them and see if this is something they could do on a limited production basis when they're not busy (ha ha). The scanning is a one time deal...
