Last year during the NCC trek to the 50th 'The General' opened up the Corvette Roadside Assistance Program to any registered NCC participant, regardless of year of their car (thanks to the unknown - to me anyway - person who got that to happen!). It sure took a load off of my mind knowing that if 'The Toy' threw a fit during the trip to and from BG I would have a single number to call to get some help.

While I doubt that 'The General' would be so generous for those enroute to C3X, does anyone know if there are any general GM contact numbers that would at least get you connected to the nearest 'Bowtie Shop', dealer or otherwise?

I'm sure any numbers in my 1970 Owners Manual are a little out of date! |laugh| |laugh| |laugh|

Vette(s): 1972 Coupe Anything, but Stock and more mods to come! SSBC Force 10 Brakes, 3.73, TH350, 355 CID, Rack and Pinion, Vette Brakes suspension front and rear.
I'm not sure how familiar everyone is with the NSRA, but they have a book called the Fellow pages that Every paid member gets.

Its a member roster by state of everyone that is an NSRA member with their phone numbers and the town they live in. It even lists individual street rod clubs by state and their members. It also has a suppliers directory in the back. Whats cool about this is if you get stuck or stranded you pull this out and start making calls to get help. If its something that requires a shop most of these people know where to take your street rod to get it fixed.

This would be an awesomething to have for the C3VR members. To the best of my knowledge the NSRA doesn't pay to have these printed they sell small advertising space in them for suppliers which pays for the cost of the booklet.

Thanks gents! |thumb| |thumb| |thumb|

That booklet sounds like something that belongs in every vintage/classic/custom/etc car's glovebox.
