You will find that the energy from the 12v car battery will inflate the tire a lot faster and to higher pressure than any "pocket inflator."

Traps and poison bait work. You have to keep resetting, rebaiting and replenishing, but I have suppressed the critters in my garage and shop. If they got inside the walls or other parts of the structure (and they usually do), you have to be aggressive over 6 months or so to get rid of them...

Hachi-san, nice work. Others: My 2005 lived most of its life on the East Coast before moving to WA state 6 years ago, so it lived in a humid environment. It does not have any corrosion of the center console. Therefore, I suspect that the consoles with corrosion were the result of poor...

Yeah, Singer has made beau coup money backdating 964's to long hoods. Of course there's more to a Singer than the bodywork. Still, at $1M or so, that's a lot of coin.

That's twice what I paid--10 years ago! Must be the tariffs.

Here’s what it looks like in my car.

Are you asking about the stuff in a can, like Fix-a-Flat, or some kind of electric pump?

Ed--what? You didn't like the $7.99 thingie I put in my car? Too low class for ya? :LOL:

Mine is a “sleeper.” Other than the black wheels (16x7 Fuchs with Michelin AS3+ 205/55) it looks pretty stock. Under the deck lid it has a SC engine stroked to 3.2 with a Turbo crank and rods, higher CR Mahle Sport pistons and M1 cam so I continue running the SC CIS injection. At some point I...

You're not the only one that doesn't care for the design of the C8. That said, they are the best value in performance by far. I owned a '64 roadster many years ago and loved it.

Ron, What engine do you have in it?

I bought mine over 33 years ago. After that much time together, I don’t think there is a part on it that my hands haven’t touched.

Definitely watching this thread.

If it recently had $28,000 of work, then I would call the GT Garage and ask their opinion of the car for a driver, or go visit them. Given the recent work, that's about as good a PPI as you could get. Do a Carfax check too. Otherwise, if the price is good, I would buy the damn thing. Then...

I think "bd" is one of those guys who marries a supermodel, then saves her for the next guy. ;)
