Brooksville, Florida, United States

Brooksville, Florida, United States

Up for auction is a 2004 Corvette convertible with 57k miles that I recently took on trade for another car I was selling. Lots of performance upgrades to make this car sound and drive like a Corvette should. The LS1 engine was stroked to a 383, SLP long tube headers that go into the Borla exhaust, Carroll Supercharger system, McCleod clutch, and MSD fuel pump booster. I was told the rear end and transmission were upgraded to Z51 standards as well with hardened axles. This car was put on a dyno and did 602hp at the rear wheels, again this was relayed and I can't verify. Car runs, shifts, and drives like it should with such low mileage. It has new tires and ceramic brakes. Loaded with options P/W, P/L, power mirrors, power seats, 6 speed, Bose, HUD, etc. I have included a picture of the tag with all the option codes for those that want to look them up. I have the books on the Supercharger system, MSD fuel pump booster, original GM books, and the information on the guy that built the motor.

Serious buyers contact John (352) 796-5264 with any questions. This is my shop # so I'm available from 9-5 M-F at this number. Interested buyers are encouraged to come and look at the car. We can put it on the lift, take it for a test drive and go over everything with you. Car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to cancel bids and end the auction early.

Non refundable deposit of $1,000 due within 24 hours of auction ending. Balance is due 7 days after close of auction and the only forms accepted are CASH or wire transfer unless prior agreement has been made. Car is sold As-Is with no warranty, again come inspect it before bidding. Car can be stored for a reasonable amount of time until the winning bidder can arrange shipping or can pick up. Shipping is up to the winning bidder to arrange, I can help load the car if needed, but I will not provide shipping quotes.

Next-gen Chevy Cruze caught cruising in the cold

Wed, 13 Feb 2013

Spy photographers have caught what looks like the next-generation Chevrolet Cruze out on snow patrol. The camo could be tricking our eyes, but it look like it has an even tidier, more rounded front end and even lower fenders in relation to the top of the hood. And either a chunk of camo has been wedged between the side mirrors and the doors, or the mirrors are up for revision, too.
The door handles have been moved up the side of the car, leading the way to a rear end that grows a bit in length. If the rumors are true, the coming second-generation Cruze sits on the new D2XX platform that will replace the Delta and Theta platforms at General Motors. A global architecture, the Cruze will be the first to get it, but it will underpin everything from next Chevrolet Volt to the Equinox and could be responsible for 2.5 million units by 2018. The next Cruze is expected to begin production in GM's Lordstown, Ohio plant in the third quarter of 2014.

Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize. Scroll down below for an official announcement from General Motors.

Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

Our apologies to those who've seen this before, but for the rest of the class, how awesome are these pictures of the Vert-A-Pac shipping system General Motors came up with to ship the Chevrolet Vega back in the 1970s? Developed along with Southern Pacific Railroad, GM was able to double the amount of Vega models it could ship by packing them into the unique storage cars vertically.
At the time, rail cars could fit 15 vehicles each, but Chevrolet was able to lower shipping costs by making it possible to ship 30 Vegas per rail car, in turn allowing the price of the Vega to remain as low as possible. Each rail car had 30 doors that would fold down so that a Vega could be strapped on, and then a forklift would come along and lift the door into place. All the cars were positioned nose down, and since they were shipped with all of their required fluids, certain aspects had to be designed specifically for this type of shipping, including an oil baffle in the engine, a special battery and even a repositioned windshield washer reservoir. See for yourself in our image gallery above.
