All the finish on your trim still looks perfect. I'm jealous. We need to figure out a way to refinish normal wear and tear.

But your original oil and tires have been replaced I hope, as well as the original gas that came with it. Does your BOSE system still work?
How many miles you have on it? I also have a '90, with about 33,000 miles and running very strong. My 20 yo C5 had 105,000 mi. when I traded it in and ran as good as the day it was born. GM and Chevy do make good cars and these Zs are the best. Just needs a little TLC as does everything. ![]() |

My '90 has 16k miles, original freon,original Bose.
Third gear synchro was gone when i got the car at 9k miles, was cheaper to replace with a new '96 blue tag ZF6 than to send the original black tag ZF6 to Bill B. I have replaced the exhaust with a Flowmaster cat back system, Accell injectors and Haibec Prom. No codes, everything works and runs like a raped ape. I've read you can set the cruise control as high as 150mph, has anyone tried? I'll never admit it, but 100 works just fine. Crabs

It looks fantastic. I'm amazed at how good it still looks. It is true that older cars are made better than the modern ones. Too many accountants counting if something is still too expensive and if it's so, make it cheaper and worse. Older cars will outlive the new ones with no issues

Unfortunately I can't chime into this celebration... When I got mine she was a one owner gem with a mere 18.5k miles on her. She came with original everything incl. tires, wiper blades and drive belt. Oil? Hope not
![]() This is what I got on top: - EVERY single Bose component was broken - rear hatch weatherstrip with cracked corners - crankshaft position sensor cracked / leaking - inectors already swapped - only 1 out of 6 lumbar support cushions working - hood and both latch struts very weak - left cat cracked and crumbled - secondary system leaking plus an inoperative pump (which was an unexpectedly easy and sustainable repair without changing any parts) - broken A/C high pressure switch - I still have issues with a sometimes flashing A/C controller LED with no noticeable errors or codes present So, you're a lucky man, I'm not so much ![]() However, apart from that these babes ARE well engineered and built. I know it, because I touched so many places when fixing the above ![]()
