    Featured GM Canada 1954 Corvette Feature / Race Car

    Hey guys and gals... Wondering if anybody can remember having seen or heard of this car. Early in 1954, GM at Oshawa grabbed a used or leftover 1954 Vette from a dealership somewhere in Ontario. They stripped the trim off it and dropped a 265 small block in it and installed a 4 speed truck...

    clutch slave cylinder

    Well, she finally let me down! After a couple of years with not so much as a hiccup, the arse fell out the clutch slave cylinder. I floated it down to my trusted technician who spent the last two weeks looking for the AC Delco variety and announced today that only Kerbecks Corvette can get them...

    How hot does your C4 run?

    I know Corvettes have a tendency to run hot. Mine will climb over 100 celcius in traffic. Last weekend, on a warm day (18 degrees) I was stuck in the Costco parking lot traffic jam (uuuuuggghhhh) and it shot up to 105 degrees Celcius. I have the HD rad and dual cooling fans, don't know if they...

    Does your Province offer a Seasonal Licence Plate

    Same scenario for next year, don't let them bully you into that surcharge if you go before April 1st. It's not like it's a lot of money but way better to take your girl out for supper than to give it to Shawn Graham. Just in passing, you're kinda driving my dream car, color is right too!

    Does your Province offer a Seasonal Licence Plate

    Hmmmm... Did you get your plate through the Dieppe SNB by any chance? (Here I am assuming you're from the Greater Moncton area...) I got my stickers at the Moncton branch (one for the rear plate and one for the windshield...) I mentioned that the fifty dollar surcharge was a bit ludicrous. A...

    Does your Province offer a Seasonal Licence Plate

    Register your car early... I run seasonal plate in New Brunswick and have discovered just today that if you register your car on or after April 1st, you must fill out a form supplied by Service New Brunswick and a fifty dollar fee it tacked on to the cost of the registration. So be sure to...

    Tires

    Thanks... I'll keep that in mind when I make my decision. Not sure I can guarantee keeping under 200 kms/h 100% of time though. And yes, I know how immature that sounds, but if I wanted to stay under 200 kms/h without fail, I'd be driving a Saturn. I guess I'm looking to have my cake and eat it...

    Tires

    Hey guys... Only a few more weeks to go before the Vettes start to bloom! My C4 will see only limited spirited drives, it's more of a GT thing with me with the odd "GIV' ER SUM" moments! Having said that, it's time to replace my Kumhos. The rears are worn, the fronts are at 50%. Trouble...
