Default Good YouTube Channel for C5 Corvette Fixes/Mods/How-To's
Hello.

I just wanted to share a YouTube channel I recently found that has a lot of good info and video on fixes, mods, and maintenance on a C5 Corvette. It is called Scruf's Garage. The guy is very calm, no-nonsense, and to the point with his videos. No clickbait bullshit. Lots of good info.

Rhetorical question: I search C5 stuff on YouTube all the freaking time -- how on earth did I miss this?
Thanks greatly!

Like I said- some, as with anything on the internet, one must use their head.
