    Frame Restoration Question

    I have an 1976 Corvette where the previous Owner painted the car. The body and paint is immaculate. However, the undercarriage needs work. Should I risk removing the body at this point or restoring the frame and undercarriage with the body on? I really don’t want to damage the body and paint...

    C7 Parts

    That was my next thought. Other than looks of the dash, all other parts are in the dealership. I will keep that in mind. I know there are issues with the seat belts right now as well. Thanks

    C7 Parts

    I have a C7 that was in a minor bender with a small deer. I have been waiting for a dash for almost a year with no ETA. What would you do?

    2017 C7 Dash

    That was my next thought. Also, would it be wise to ask the question at a different dealership. I have the part number etc. I also have a report from the dealership that says the part has been ‘approved for quality control’. Not sure what this means but a month ago I got the sense it was on...

    2017 C7 Dash

    Update…had my accident with 2017 last July 2022. Here it is March 2023 and the dealership has told me the there is no replacement dash available anywhere in the world. I have no idea when I will get my car repaired. Is this normal? I don’t think I am ever getting my car again. Frustrated and...

    C8 Shipping Alberta

    I would definitely go with an enclosed trailer and make sure the shipper is bonded. I had my 2017 purchase shipped from New Brunswick to St. Thomas, Ontario and it was well worth it for piece of mind! The cost difference for your new baby is well worth it. A friend of mine used to ship cars...

    Good advice. I go in once a month to verify where the parts are at but I never thought about them sending them back. Thanks

    2017 C7 Dash

    Hi all, I hit a small deer last July at which time the front bumper was slightly cracked, not a real problem. However, all the air bags blew out. I expected that the dealership would be waiting for parts to repair my Vette. All parts have arrived except for a 'dash' with no delivery date...

    Selling a C7 private seller vs. a dealer

    I bought a C7 last year privately out of New Brunswick. I live in Ontario. The seller and I went through his dealer because he was upgrading. All paperw work was completed by the dealer including the money transfers. If the seller is upgrading it is a tax advantage for him as well. I bought...
