You are bidding on my 1965 Chevelle 300 Deluxe 2-door post coupe. Out of the 378,000+ Chevelles produced in 1965, just over 8,000 were the 300 Deluxe 2-door post coupe model, making it very rare today. The post coupe is favored by drag racers and hot rodders for its light weight and rigid body.

The interior features correct OEM '65 low-back bucket seats and full rear bench. Door panels are good, brand-new carpet, door sill plates, trunk divider, package tray, glove box liner and headliner. While not perfect, the interior does looks very good. The dash features a vintage Sun Super Tach II tachometer front and center for a nice clean look, while accessory oil pressure and water temperature gauges monitor the vitals. The speedometer and engine warning lights work, as do the head lights, tail lights, and brake lights. A new B&M Pistol-Grip Quarter Stick shifter is mounted on the floor to handle the shifting duty. Overall, the interior looks and feels comfortable, clean, and complete just as it is.

The engine is a High Performance 1970 396 Big Block, rebuilt with under 30K miles; still tight and fresh. The engine internals include 10.25-1 compression flat top pistons, mild performance hydraulic camshaft and lifters, high volume oil pump, and a balanced bottom end. The heads have been surfaced, have a 3-angle valve job, dual valve springs, screw-in studs, pushrod guide plates, and poly locks. The top end features a Holly Street Dominator aluminum high rise intake, while a high-volume electric fuel pump delivers the fuel to a new Edelbrock 750 carburetor, sparked by an HEI ignition. The custom driveline was professionally balanced.

New Hooker big-tube headers and full 2 1/2" dual exhaust with X-pipe handle the exhaust. A Champion custom 4-row aluminum high-capacity radiator keeps the engine running at under 190 degrees. Oil pressure is strong and steady. New plugs, wires, battery, alternator, regulator, starter, belts, and hoses. Fresh engine oil and filter, as well as 50/50 antifreeze. The engine is backed up by a '70 Turbo 400 automatic and 10-bolt rear end. The transmission was also just serviced with new fluid, filter, and pan gasket.

The engine/trans combination is in good, strong running condition with a fresh professional performance tune-up.

The entire underside of the car has been cleaned and painted, with almost all the fasteners having been replaced as well... looks great underneath. Front suspension has been redone with new shocks all around, new brakes, and restored '71 Chevelle Rally wheels with new trim rings and inserts mounted with good Daytona radial tires. Manual steering is tight and surprisingly easy to steer; manual brakes work great with solid pedal feel.

The body appears to be virtually rust-free; I can't find evidence of any outer-body rust anywhere. The trunk has been restored to original speckled paint and looks great; no rust there either. It was originally Turquoise Metallic, and is now in gray primer.

The chrome is nice, the stainless is good but not perfect, and the glass is very good. All the windows roll up and down smoothly, doors open and close well, panels align well.

It still needs the outside, dual mirrors, lower body "300" belt moldings, front marker lights, and license plate lights. Inside, passenger side- and rear arm rests, and a paint job.

As you can see, the car is still what I'd call a light project. I believe I've priced the car fairly to leave some room to finish it out and still be right-side up. All the big stuff is done and the car is a great runner/driver as-is.

While every effort is being made to describe the car accurately, please keep in mind it is a 47-year-old classic, and therefore being sold "as-is," without warranty expressed or implied.

Please contact me upon auction completion to make arrangements to pay within 3 days by bank wire transfer, major bank cashier's check, or cash. Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer, and I will make myself available to your carrier for pickup and loading. Please, no zero-feedback bidders without checking with me prior to bidding.

I am open to a reasonable offer on the car, and you may call me at 360-936-9257 to discuss anything you wish.

GM sweetens military discount for Buick, Chevy and GMC

Sun, 06 Oct 2013

American servicemen and women interested in a new vehicle from Chevrolet, Buick or GMC now have a bit more incentive to head down to their local dealer, as General Motors has announced plans to improve its military discount program.
The new GM Military Discount Program offers eligible consumers a new Chevy, Buick or GMC at invoice pricing, which in some cases can take very large chunks out of a car's retail price. When factored in with other incentives, most of which are available with the Military Discount, the bargains are thick on the ground for members of the US armed forces.
GM's Retail Sales and Marketing Support general manager, Chuck Thomson, said, "GM has long supported the military and military families, and we hope this simplified and enhanced discount will show our appreciation for their service and help make it easier for them to own one of our great new vehicles." The program is open to all active duty and reserve members in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, National Guard and Coast Guard, as well as veterans that have been out of the service for less than a year. Military retirees and their spouses are also eligible for the discount.

First privately owned Corvette Stingray blitzes 1/4 mile in 12.23 at 114.88 mph

Tue, 01 Oct 2013

Chevrolet's latest road rocket, the Corvette Stingray, is a very quick car. If one needs further proof of that, we recommend they take a look at this video from Hennessey of what is claimed to be the first privately owned C7 Corvette to make a pass down the quarter mile. Not just any quarter mile, mind, this black C7 blitzed its way down the tuner's primary testing dragstrip. The Chevrolet ran the quarter in just 12.23 seconds at 114.88 miles per hour. That is a very quick time for a stock car.
Equipped with the Z51 package and a six-speed automatic transmission, not only does the C7 run a solid time, but it does so with little to no drama. That won't last though, as Hennessey will likely return it to its owner with far more power - we just hope they show a drag run of the completed product. Take a look below to watch the C7's 12.23-second run on video.

Man surprises girlfriend with C7 Corvette

Mon, 07 Oct 2013

How would you react if someone just showed up at your place of work with a new, 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, complete with all the trimmings? While a lot of us would likely be flipping out over the still rare sports car, it's a fair bet many more of us would be responding like Pattie here, whose boyfriend stopped by her work to show her her new C7.
Speechless and shocked as she seems, she does end up taking it out for a drive, despite claiming she wasn't really outfitted to handle the car's seven-speed manual transmission at the time. From the sound of the video, we got the impression that she knew the car was coming, just not that it was anywhere near ready for delivery. It also, as Pattie says, seems like her boyfriend is more excited about the car than she (which, can we blame him?). Take a look down below for the full video of this C7 Stingray delivery.
