Vette(s): 1975 C3 Red, T-Tops, Black Interior. All I need is time and money! Getting there!
Start with the tire pressure. Then look for the stablizer links and follow all of that up by inpecting the front end steering parts and suspension parts. After that, a good alignment. In that order.

Ditto what Ken says |thumb| Sounds like an alignment problem,tires, or possibly control arm bushings. Check that stuff out before you get yerself or your Vette hurt!! |frown| |laugh| |wavey|
