    1988 Convertible for sunny day drives

    Well, pretty po’d today. Had the vette out for a little run and stopped off at the grocery store on way home. When I came back out, I noticed the hood looked funny even from across the parking lot. When I got closer I could see multiple deep and long scratches all over the hood. It looks like...

    1990 Headlights/Low Beam

    Nah, just replace them. A short would have popped a fuse before the bulb. These lights live a hard life, they burn out after being in place for a few years.

    I do belive the 91 armrest is a little different from the “atari dash” interiors. GM may have redesigned the inner structure (making it a bit stronger) when they redid the interior.

    1988 Convertible for sunny day drives

    A PO changed out the top on my 88 at some point in the cars past. The car is supposed to be triple black, but they installed a saddle colored top. Thats irritating (its in good shape so I can’t justify the cost of replacing it yet), but thats not the worst of it. When they installed it (or had...

    I would assume all c4’s have this issue: the “lid” on the center console cracks inside and makes the whole thing a mess. Like most c4 interior pieces, its 30+ year old crappy plastic and it doesn’t stand up well to either time or use. Especially a pita since we all know getting in and out of a...

    1988 Convertible for sunny day drives

    Recaro replacement lumbar bladders arrived: They’re a little less wide than the oems, but otherwise, the fit appears to be quite good. The construction is miles better than the “plastic bags” gm originally used and these will probably outlast the car. Now I just have to buy a set of hog ring...
