Good point. Here's a question for the Pittsburghers. I have some strange corrosion on a set of polished aluminum wheels. It's a spare set, so it's not a big deal, but I want to do something with them. Any feedback on local powder-coaters? I'm also thinking of trying plasti-dip, since it's pretty inexpensive and it's not permanent. I saw that Diehl automotive in Butler does plastidip.

Any feedback on Diehl, or is it easy enough to plasti-dip yourself.

Thanks.

I just ran into Jmelchio at the college fair and he said to come on here. Thanks Al! It's going to be a long 11 days to get it.

Congratulations Jamie!!! Beautiful car. I too just traded in January and got a 2013 GS 3LT - Torch Red and they delivered car Jan 10 and it has been "sleeping" until this weather breaks.

Best of luck with your new car

Thanks Joe and Mary. Sad day at the National Corvette Museum. A sinkhole happened in the Skydome. Several cars damaged. Luckily mine is in the entrance and is ok at the moment

jmelchio · 02-12-2014, 09:47 AM

No way!! Wow, that's crazy, but glad your car is OK.

That's crazy what happened. I heard they got the 83 out of there undamaged.

Jamie Mac · 02-12-2014, 11:17 AM

I'd have rather mine was sunk that the ones that were. They can build me another. I need to call and see if this is going to change my plans to pick it up

jmelchio · 02-13-2014, 08:36 AM

Jamie, I watched the clip on the Museum website. It's unbelievable to see that hole open up and watch those cars tumble in.

Jamie you suck.

Too bad yours wasn't sucked in, could have slipped them some extra cash to get you a Z51 car.

Lol. I'd skip the auto and Nav and put it towards Z51 if given the option but I'm not going to complain.
