1961 C1 Corvette Convertible
Early Generation Corvette “driver” with removable Hard Top.
This car is told to be originally a California car. The current owner bought it from a Corvette specialty dealer
in Tempe AZ in June of 2006. There was no history provided concerning previous ownership but the car looked good
underneath and drove nicely so he bought it. After the purchase he had the carburetor and the starter rebuilt and
replaced the battery cables, spark plugs and wires. Outside of a recent tune up there hasn’t been much needed in
the last 5k miles. The odometer reads 35,113 now and was at 30,000 when he purchased the car. It is thought that
the 30,000 was more representative of when the restoration was done by a previous owner. The engine is a 350 with
nice power but not the original motor.
This car is a fun car to drive and turns heads everywhere it goes. Not a show car but one with good bones that can
be driven and enjoyed. The exterior is Ermine White with a Fawn beige interior. The transmission is a 2 speed
Powerglide. The removable hard top fits tight except for a small place at the back where the rubber has aged.
There isn’t a soft top at this time.
A fun car to own and enjoy as well as a piece of history.

GM already raising prices on 2014 Silverado and Sierra pickups
Mon, 14 Oct 2013General Motors must be pretty pleased with sales of its two newest pickups, the GMC Sierra and Chevrolet Silverado, as it's announced price hikes for both models, as part of a planned price tweak.
Prices will be bumped by as much as $1,500, although weirdly, they'll be offset by as much as $1,500 in cash-back offers through the end of October. Fox Business reports that GM spokesman Jim Cain said of the price hike, "With the sell down of the '13 models nearly complete, this price adjustment was planned and is a normal part of business."
The move, as Fox is quick to point out, is an interesting one, as sales of the twin pickups struggled last month relative to the Ford F-Series, while both of GM's crosstown competitors have been aggressively undercutting Silverado and Sierra prices. The F-150 starts at $24,070 and the Ram 1500 comes in at $23,600, not counting any cash on the hood. A base Silverado, meanwhile, retails at $25,575.

GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices
Mon, 21 Oct 2013The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.
