Thanks for all the suggestions. It was indeed the door actuator. I bought a new one on Amazon for $35, no doubt made in China but works like a charm. Removing the door trim is a PITA, but once...

The passenger door works fine and the inside driver's door works fine. That's what convinced me it was the pad.

Yes. Its clicks and partially opens, indexes the window down, but won't open all the way. It acts exactly as it does when the contacts in the pad air dirty.

C6 Driver's side door won open, not switch pad

Since I bought my 08 new, I've had to clean the pad on the driver's side door several times. That always fixed it. Now I couldn't fix it so I replaced the pad. Still won't open on outside. Works...

My 68 came from the factory with 327/350hp, four speed, power brakes but no power steering. It's a restomod now with power steering. Wish I had left it manual.

This would probably been the smarter thing to do. Of course, if I had a few more brain cells I'd have put an LS in the car.

Dual mode mufflers on my C3

I bought NPP mufflers from a wrecked, late-model Camaro and adapted them to my C3. The ECU opens them at 3500 rpm just like my C6. I also have a Mild-2-Wild switch.

I have been driving Corvettes as my daily driver since 1973 and have observed a steady decline in the wave. It's sad. When I'm driving my 68 I get a lot more waves than when I'm driving my 08.

I put a T-56 in my 68 and that's one monstrous transmission. The days of getting my Muncie out on my chest and rolling out from under the car are over. I also ditched my 327/350. I started with a...

Early 68 or late?

How do I tell if I have an early or late 68? When I run a vin check it says I don't have a valid vin. Apparently, all valid vins are 17 characters. My vin is 1946785400503. Any help would be...

T-56 in 68

I had minimal problems putting a T-56 in my 68. The forward U-joint hit, requiring a bit of trimming. Had to fabricate a cross member, of course. My biggest problem has been getting the 68 chassis...

I'll never forget John Belushi (RIP) doing his Joe Cocker (RIP) imitation alongside Cocker on SNL. Music today is a pale imitation. Yeah, I'm an old fart.
