Volunteer Vettes Can Help Get Your Corvette's Power Windows Moving in the Right Direction

Nothing takes a beating on our Corvettes like the doors. Think of all the times they’ve been slammed shut, or how many times the windows were put and down. Are your power windows operating as they should or are they making the dreaded clunking sound?

If you have a classic Corvette, sooner or later, it’s going to need some window adjustments. That could mean a simple part replacement or it could mean a full-blown restoration of the major components. Maybe you want to add power windows to your car which didn’t have them originally. Lucky for us, our friends at Volunteer Vette are here to help out with these projects.

If you have questions or are not sure of the part your Corvette needs, the parts specialists at VolVette.com will help you find exactly what you need! And when you do find the right parts, most orders ship the same or the next day. Give them a call today at (865) 521-9100.

ACS Composite's New 7VM Splitter Is Their Most Aggressive Yet for the C8 Corvette

It seems like every time we turn around, ACS Composite has a new part or accessory to show off and this next one coming from the purveyors of high-quality automotive aerodynamics is really cool in our book!

ACS Composite is calling it the 7VM Front Splitter and it will be the company’s third splitter offered for the C8 Corvette Stingray. Corvette owners can customize the front look of their Corvettes in three different ways to achieve that perfect look. We’re also going to highlight the 1VM and 5VM Front Splitters below as a comparison, but first, check out the new 7VM Front Splitter design from ACS Composite.

[VIDEO] Black, Gold-Plated 1947/59 Corvette Has an 'Gangsta' Past

The guys at RDB LA are apparently having a little fun with what they call a “1947” Corvette that apparently has some shady history behind it.

Of course, we all know the production of the Corvette didn’t even start until 1953, so this is really a 1959 Corvette. Just don’t tell anyone, or you might have to be “exterminated.”
