I think owning at least one Corvette should be on every guy's bucket list.

Corvette is the last thing ill ever own. Sorry to offend anyone, but i spent plenty of time working on them. Not much fun in my book. Ill stick to trucks.

Never had a Vette on my bucket list, but several Camaros have been on there. That new Z/28 would probably satisfy my craving for my old '69. Maybe?

Was told I'll get my car back early next week.[emoji12] He said he would have been done today if the last part has showed up.(I guess it was besides the point that they didn't border it until my car had been there a week [emoji58]

 

Just has to get the steering pump and pulley off and on. Replace a valve, Install condenser and dryer, and flush the system. Think he is going to get up to the condenser, so its ready to install when it shows up(hopefully) monday

Just stopped by that shop, the two reservoirs are identical except for the direction a line exits. Hope that's what he meant by different shape... Weird way to explain it though.

 

 

Also, roof and back of car is filthy from their overhead door.

 

 

Guy who was there said everyone that has seen or stopped at the shop while he is there comment or ask about it.[emoji2]

Went to the weekly cruise night at the Hartman Center.... almost 600 cars tonight! Every Saturday from April through October... AMERICAN MUSCLE as far as the eye can see!

 

So much better than sitting in front of the tube!!! :thumbs:

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.

      Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍

      Bringing this thread back on topic. I just noticed the incredible lack of bright chrome across the entire new lineup. Even the Denali has tinted the brightwork in the grille and has none elsewhere. None of them have chrome bumpers. As far as I can tell there aren't even chrome mirror caps. I'm curious if this also happens out back? Are there no chrome rear bumpers either? This is quite the departure for GMC.
