    I watched "Corvette Nation" last night. They were show-casing a collection of 100 vettes a guy and his 3 sons had. (in the Netherlands I think). While working on customers vettes as their business, these guys have collected a lot of vette parts as well as their own collection of vettes. As the...

    VCA Shirts & Hats

    I keep looking in the VCA store to see if they have VCA shirts, hats, patches, or emblems to put on a car window.

    Vipers per state

    A couple of years ago Viper magazine put out a map (center page) of the U.S. with total numbers of Vipers in each state. I would like to see them do that again (a kind of update). I guess there must be a way to do that through each state's Department of Motor Vehicles. I realize, at best, that...

    Does anyone know where you can buy claybar clay by itself?

    I bought the Meguiar's claybar kit (sealed) only to find upon opening it: one 16oz. spray bottle of quick detailer, one microfiber towl, and two small individually wrapped claybars in a little plastic box. The quick detailer can be had for $5, the towl for $1, so that must mean for my purchase...

    It's the little things that will bite you in the A##.

    FYI: When using claybar on your car, be sure to first give yourself a good manicure. I clayed my car today for the first time and was going along great guns when I checked the clay after doing a portion of my hood, only to discover my finger nail had penetrated the clay and was puting nice...

    I've noticed many of the pictures that were part of the illustrated upgrade section are no longer there - just little boxes with red squares inside them. I'm not very computer savy so maybe there is something I don't know that will allow me to view the pictures on my PC. If the pictures are gone...
