I could have had one that was way cleaner and lower mileage for under 10k but it would've had the slushbox with a LT1. I had to have a stick, and along with the LT4 this one was a winner. Only drawback with the C4 is it's so damn hard to get in and out of... and I'm not getting any younger.

Nice car Bug. I'm not much of a Vette guy, but I get the dream.

Well done on the remodel of the house. That looks really good. That I am more impressed with.

Q: What's the LT4?

A: Cruising for babes!

Haha! Looks like the stuntmen from the original Magnum, P.I. television show are still hanging out!

Nice! I have one as well. I will try to post a few pics later. My LT4 is absolutely pristine mint and unmodified with under 14k miles on it. Time Capsule. Feel free to DM me with any questions.
They are GREAT CARS!!!

Pics of my '96 LT4.

Congrats again Bugeater! Have fun, these cars pull HARD!

BTW, looks like those headlights are sagging a bit. I believe there is a rubber pad with a screw that you can adjust the headlight doors...been awhile. I would have to research it.

The gears on the headlight motors originally were nylon or some type of plastic (along with the bushings) they deteriorate over time, but it's a super easy fix to tear into the motors and replace the gears/bushings. So if they start binding up, that's usually the issue.

That's is one of the few things I have had to do to my car along with the Brake Master Cylinder, Fluids, Belts and Hoses. I'm still on the OEM brake pads from 96, as my car has low mileage. Still had the OEM Goodyear Eagles when I bought mine during the pandemic. Now sporting Continental Extreme Contact. Looks like your car might have Chrome ZR1 wheels instead of the stock Sawblades.

Also, these cars run HOT, it's NORMAL. All new C4 owners think their cars are overheating. It's entirely normal for these cars to get into the 230 degree range in the city or in traffic (trust the digital gauge over the analog) - Fans kick on around 227-228 and they will cool back down. :)

Hey that's not a camaro.

I bet you're not even bald or sporting a goatee.

Btw, nice ride dude!

The Bob Barker look-alike contest.

Nice but that's no Camaro. And where's your mullet?

Dunerdr 07-24-2024 07:14 AM

Is it a real LT4 car or just stickers?

I told my wife that if I ever dressed like any of those guys now that I am older....she has permission to suffocate me while I am sleeping.

Freaking sweet, sir.

And I use Google personally and I can help show you some tips in person, I'll be around your neck of the woods August 7th and 8th. Jewel and Melissa Etheridge!

That is quite the turn around on the place! The transition on the yard alone speaks volumes about the effort you've obviously put into it.
