1960 Chevrolet Corvette on 2040-cars
Chicago, Illinois, United States
1960 Corvette. Dark Red, Red interior. White Coves. Original colors were Roman Red per the markings found during restoration. We bought this car totally disassembled and in boxes in the late �80s and then stored it for another 10 years. We reassembled and restored it in 1997/98. Less than 1000 miles on the car since putting it back on the road. It has been stored in a dry climate controlled garage for the last 15 years, with very little driving to a few car shows and parades. Interior is all new from the restoration and still looks brand new. New seat springs, cushions and covers. Seat frames were blasted and painted. New carpet and dash pad installed. New door panels, kick panels and sun visors. New dash wiring harness installed. All gages are original and working well. The tachometer is functional but not currently hooked up. Soft top frame has been restored and is rust free. The soft top fabric has not been stretched over the frame. It is still in the box from several years ago. All interior is top quality Al Knoch materials. A newer Corvette AM/FM radio and speaker are in the car. Original Wonderbar radio and speaker are included in the trunk. Paint is in good shape and is driver quality. There are a few blemishes where the paint has flaked and been touched up. They are small, about the size of a dime. Shines nice and this color gets a lot of attention at the shows. All chrome and stainless steel have been polished and look very good. Some pitting on the door pillars.

Chevrolet planning low-cost Corvette under Stingray?
Wed, 27 Feb 2013If you're burnt out on musings about the Chevrolet Corvette, you'll want to go ahead and skip this post. Motor Trend reports General Motors is hard at work on a low-cost version of the seventh-generation sports car for 2015. Rumored to be called the Corvette Coupe, the car will forgo the Stingray and skip the 450-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine in favor of a 5.3-liter V8 with under 400 ponies. If you're keeping track, that's a shade of the same engine found behind the headlights of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra.
The report also suggests the Coupe will receive a number of aesthetic tweaks to separate it from the Stingray, including different front and rear fascias as well as new front fenders and a rear diffuser. Motor Trend says the point of all this is to cut the car's price tag, which means we may see a Corvette on showroom floors for less than $50,000 if this car comes to fruition.
GM recalling over 40,000 Chevy, Pontiac and Saturn models over fuel pump woes
Mon, 01 Oct 2012The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for a number of General Motors cars and crossovers bought or currently registered in the hot-climate states of Arkansas, Arizona, California, Nevada, Oklahoma and Texas. As many as 40,859 units consisting of the 2007 Chevrolet Equinox, Pontiac Torrent and Saturn Ion and the 2007-2009 Chevrolet Cobalt (shown) and its Pontiac G5 twin are being recalled for potential fuel leaks.
This recall is being issued due to potentially faulty fuel pump components that can crack and cause gasoline to leak from the return or supply ports and possibly cause a fire. NHTSA has not indicated how many fuel leaks or vehicle fires have been reported. As a fix, GM will replace the fuel pump modules on all affected vehicles free of charge. Since Pontiac and Saturn have been shuttered, owners will be able to go to another GM-brand dealership to have their vehicles repaired.
While the list of affected cars and crossovers varies by state and model year, if you own any of these models and live in Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada, Oklahoma or Texas, be sure to check the official notice below for more details.
Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing
Tue, 21 Sep 2010Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.
