Looking for a 90 corvette tire gauge they were part of the original eqiupment in the owners box. It was stored in the center console.

Pretty sure it's the same one offered in all C4's from 1990 to 1996.

no its not David the head is different than the rest of the models. I assume this is a NCRS request. Just one in a long list of MY 90 only parts. GC

So that's what it looks like all clean. I've always wondered.
Looks like all your coinage has been stolen.:confused:

I think Kurt had some gauges listed on his site, not sure what they look like.

Interesting clip holding the lug nut key. I believe that clip was an early MY 90 item only.

Also correct they dropped off midyear in the MY90 production for some reason. I liked it so much I added one to my 91

Who is Kurt? I would like to contact him regarding a tire gauge.

Very interesting! I have one in my toolbox that I obviously did not give to the new owner when I sold my 1990 in 1991. I bought that car brand new in June 1990 and the last 4 digits of the VIN were 2301. A little over a year ago I bought a used 1990, the one I currently own--VIN=0384. It too has the guage in the center console, but it looks slightly different than the one from my original car. They both have the same shape, but the one from the car (2301) that I bought new in 1990 does not say "CORVETTE" on the side in black letters. It only says "Schrader" etched on the clip. Do you think Chevrolet changed versions somewhere in the same year? Anyway, I'd be more than willing to part with this one, the one from the first ZR-1, which is currently languishing in my toolbox. Here's a picture or two of it

Lousy pictures, I know, but what can you expect from the camera on my iPhone 4? It looks like there's a black streak on the gauge, but that's just a reflection. Let me know if you want it.

White Racing Products, I just checked his site and they appear sold out. You may want to contact him anyway.

They swapped to a Velcro holder.
