Put me in the list for wanting a part number or specific model year of corvette. I like it.

When I get 4915 back I will install the Corvette 3rd brake light I bought some time
ago. I notice on Ebay there is a Corvette 3rd brake light Pulser Module that makes the light pulse
for a short time when the brakes are applied. ($59.95) Any one have this? Seems like a good
idea to me ... thoughts?
Replaced rear speakers and added an FM modulator for AUX into the Craig. Ran 3.5 mm input plug into the glove box for easy concealment and was able to use the existing latch hole so no drilling necessary! Also ran lead wires under the console to feed my sub amp (yet to be purchased). Put the interior back together. No more scratchy sound that cuts in and out!
One casualty: my power antenna. Apparently after all the testing turning the radio on and off my antenna decided it no longer wants to go down. Been reading the power antenna thread, with the Legacy LN46 no longer available, I'll likely go with the recommendation of the Metra 44-PW22.
Today I loaded mine on a trailer and brought it home. :yesss:
Let the rolling restoration begin!
I replaced the drivers side mirror with one of Tom's heated and extended convex mirrors:

I'm a happy customer!
Also, I pulled out my buzzer/chime box and figured out how that bracket goes back in and am looking for a replacement. It's definitely sick and sounds terrible like the buzzer came loose inside. I pulled the connector about a week after I got "Sweet Dee" because the damn thing just randomly started making noise while I was driving. The bracket came loose when I pulled the cable. Well, the seats are still out soaking with Leatherique and figured it was a good time to try to get it back in there. It fits and feels right even though I can't see it.

Found another HW City Hot Wheels at LAX and paid $3.50 for it.
Drove it to Starbucks and back. That's about the furthest I can go before the brakes start giving out, but I've got to keep the fuel circulating through the system every few weeks. :(
Replaced the hood trim (top edge) with a new part from DMCH. It looks and stays on better than the old stuff.
Put my drivers side door back together after the mirror swap. It works great.

I replaced the two AC idler bearings. One was making a lot of noise and with the stethoscope was grinding pretty loud. The other was quiet. The quiet one turned out to be very close to seizing.
Haven't done much recently - basically reassembled, cleaned a heap of things, installed a Christmas present DMCflux sent me, and done lots and lots of driving. The incredibly hot weather we've had recently (this past week being 40+'c every day) has been a little demotivating.
That said, I have been doing some more design work on some other upgrades I've been planning for a while so I might start a couple of them soon.
