    GT steady, Corvette follows grooves

    Why does my 2004 vette conv. follow the grooves in the road causing me to constantly fight the steering wheel. The steering in a vette is heavy and fighting the wheel is very annoying. My GT does not do this and tracks perfectly. Goodyear dealer blames the design of the vette. Anyone know...

    Valve stem caps

    my 2005 GT came sans valve caps. However, if you want something special for about $14 bucks, go on ford collection web site and they have a set of 4 with the blue Ford oval. Very nice look. However, because valve caps are small to begin with, only you will know you have unique beauties on...

    Very rare cobra rumored to be for sale

    I believe that blue car is owned by O.C. Welch, F-L-M dealer in Hilton Head Island, SC. He has about 5 GT 's but for some strange reason won't sell any. He is not a collector, thinks he is going to make a killing on those units. Also has some mustang 500gt in stock but won't sell them either.

    white GT's are the fastest....proof

    Scientific evidence: 1. White reflects the heat from the sun, car runs cooler and therefore quicker. 2. My "WHITE" GT is always much faster than my "BLACK" corvette. There it is. Solid proof that WHITE GT's are the fastest color. If anyone is looking to make an investment, I know where a...

    Cleaning front GT stripes?

    Took my GT out for a high speed run on a deserted road. Didn't pick up any tickets but did manage to get a lot of bugs. How do you clean off the bugs on the stripes? Afraid to use regular cleaners as I don't want to damage the stripes. LEON Hilton Head Island, SC
