That hump is present in pretty much every modern convertible for good reason, it carries 90% of the responsibility for chassis rigidity. Even in unibody hardtop cars that have no use for a center hump such as the 2000s Buick sedans there is a center hump that does duty as a structural member. That hump shrank over the…
It would look very at-home next to the Quartz Regalia, methinks
This seems... eerily familiar.
No, DEFINITELY that one with the red velour.
Are you sure you’re doing ottomans properly?
Lots of rich people drive surprisingly pedestrian vehicles. The Koch corporation is based out of Wichita. I worked at a Chevy dealership here which had a “We pick your car up for you” option for our wealthier clients. The Kochs? They drive leased Chevy Tahoes.
Old money vs New money, I suppose.
Beat me to it.
I dream of a Miata with reasonable NVH.
Oh shit, you made progress?
This was at the last C&C. Absolutely stunning car. Certainly not something common here in Wichita, Kansas.
Well done on the restoration, though I question not bringing a can of starter fluid with you when you initially checked out the car. Spraying some fluid in the intake while the engine is being cranked over would have likely gotten it to start and let you instantly know if there was a spun bearing, bad compression,…
They’re shockingly competent in corners as well. A byproduct of this is that they ride insanely rough but... whatcha gonna do.
So would I. I wouldn’t want to partake in it though. Those Tahoes are some of the most insanely rough-riding vehicles my back has ever had the displeasure of experiencing. Even worse than an E46 M3.
I worked at a Chevy dealership and frequently delivered police-spec Tahoes to the local substation. “Pursuit rated” generally pertains, as I understand it, to the suspension durability and the capability of the vehicle to jump a curb at 60mph without sustaining any damage whatsoever.
Stef Schrader, are you jarglus?
1995-96 I6 coupe. Do want. In green or blue, please.
It’s perfect except for the stupid hood ornament that isn’t supposed to be there. I’m confused by the presence of a T400 because in 1991 they switched to having a 4L80e.
Yup. Check floor boards. The A/C condensation pan has pitifully small drain lines and will periodically dump water on the floor in corners if they clog. The inch-thick pillow of a floor holds that water against the ungalvanized steel of the floor and results in localized rust that ends with your floor falling off like…
It has literal floor *boards*. Wood is luxurious donchaknow?
