Next goal is to go to the strip and just see what kinds of numbers she puts down as is.

Well time to get off my butt and start working on my baby
Just so happen to park it for the day and saw it roll over.
That makes something like 27k miles since I got it in July of 2010

Unless I magically get the car painted before snow arrives this winter I might park it for the winter and get a beater. I just want to keep the car from rusting because there are a few areas were the paint chipped off to the bare panel.

When I moved up here in the December of 2010 snow was already here and was only driven when she had to be moved.
Then last years winter I drove it when the roads looked alright but I still had my nitto street tires on and it sucked. So now I have all seasons on and only will drive it when it's the only vehicle available.
My dad stays at home for his business and only leaves every now and then so I drive his truck in the snow but if he does get out he is stuck with either the cobra or the corvette to choose fro.

Someone will look at the car today and give me an estimate for paint later today.
Also my dash has been cracked for what feels like forever and I plan on replacing the dash
First thing. I know some years (mine) came with a clock on the top of the dash and some didn't.
If I got a dash from either one it should fit right on in right?
Second. Were the radio bezels different on the two?
Third if the bezels were different on the two could I just put my current one in to keep the same radio set up?
Last. Is the VIN attached to the dash it's self or something else?

Ill look at my 2 tommorow, but I believe you could get a dash from any 94-04. Im pretty sure my 95 and 99 are the same with the exception on the clock on the top.

Car is either burning oil fast or draining it out fast but I've gone thru 2 quarts in a month but a lot of miles in that month. And power steering pump is getting even worse to were I can not easily turn and apply the brakes at the same time. Also my subs have stopped working for a few days and I think I finally found the problem.
However on a good note I got 19.1 mpg on my last tank of gas! That's 5 more than normal!
