I have decided to sell a vehicle that I thought I would keep forever. I am selling my 1986 Chevrolet Silverado with only 1800 original miles, I would think this must be one of the if not the lowest mileage 86 Silverados in existence and is truly a collector piece. The truck was bought locally by a gentleman who owned it for several years and primarily stored it and then gave it to his adult son who also seldom drove it, during this time the truck only accumulated about 1000 miles. Both of these owners were incredibly particular with the truck and nothing was ever put in the box, no one ever sat directly on the seat, a pair of shoes never touched the factory floor mats and they somehow always managed to close the hood without touching the painted surface (try it......just about lost a couple digits when I tried). The second owner who I bought the truck from bought it roughly 5 years ago was equally as fussy but did drive it occasionally on sunny days and brought the mileage up to 1800 miles where it is at now. To best describe the truck all I can say is it is NEW. There is no wear, marks, scratches or anything like that, the dash is flawless with no cracks and the headliner is still properly attached which are both problematic areas on these trucks. The truck has all the Silverado options and everything is working as it should. It starts right up and runs perfectly with absolutely no noises of any kind.  The only thing ever changed on the truck are the tires which cracked and the battery, other than that it is completely stock. It has undergone regular maintenance and oil changes to maintain it in perfect shape. If I was to look for a flaw I would say that the lug nuts should be changed (which I am in the process of sourcing) as when the tires were changed it appears that someone used a impact on them (really!). The truck is stored in a heated/climate controlled location and has never been driven in the winter by any of the owners and I would be surprised if it has seen any bad weather at all. The only reason I am selling it is because I would like to purchase a 1959 Cadillac.

Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting?

Supercharged 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 takes the C7 beyond the ZR1

Mon, 13 Jan 2014



The Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
After a bright-yellow false start, here is the real thing: the fourth-generation, 2015 Corvette Z06. If Chevrolet makes a ZR1 version of the C7 Corvette, it's going to be absolutely mega, because the Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.

Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile

Mon, 18 Nov 2013

The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.
