We are the second titled owner of this beautiful convertible.  Mr. Ralph Englestad first acquired this vehicle as new with a mso (manufacturer's statement of origin).  He was the owner of the Imperial Palace Resort and Casino in Las Vegas.  He was also an automobile dealer and had an extensive automobile collection.  In the early 1990's the vehicle was sold to the first titled owners.  They owned the car for 20 years.  We purchased the car in 2012 with total original documented miles of 9,670The miles are stated on our clear Tennessee title.  We have driven the car over 3,000 miles with no issues and much enjoyment.

When we purchased the vehicle, we had a Chevrolet dealership change all fluids, belts, hoses, etc. and requested GM products be used.  We also had a new top and new tires installed due to age.  This convertible is ready to drive any place and any distance you choose.  This isn't a car that has been dressed up and shined up to appear to be something it really isn't.  It can be enjoyed for years and decades to come.

The driver's side exterior remote mirror will not move.  The clock works but is unplugged because it makes an annoying clicking sound every one or two minutes.  The 8 track tape player works and certainly provides a nostalgic feature to the car (yes you can still purchase tapes).  This convertible is 39 years old and isn't perfect with some minor discoloration between floor mats and carpet, but they are original to the vehicle.  The top could use some adjustment but works fine as is.

If you have interest please call me and I will provide more details concerning the history of the car.  We have much documentation from the time the vehicle was first sold and titled.  We also have many more pictures that we can send you.  The number is 865-207-4493.  Please call between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. eastern time.  Please no text messages.

The vehicle is priced to sell with no reserve.  Please have finances in order and be prepared to complete payment within 7 days of purchase. It is advertised locally and is subject to sell prior to the 7 day auction ending.  We will work with the buyer anyway we can.

Thank you.

Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war

Sun, 30 Dec 2012

A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?

Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.
