1962 Chevrolet Corvette on 2040-cars
Felton, California, United States
If you have any questions feel free to email me at: boycebttaggert@coventryfans.com . You are looking at a beautiful 1962 bodied driver with both hard and soft tops. The car has a 1959 frame with a
1962 body and a verified California Highway Patrol VIN that matches the VIN on the frame. The car has approximately
10K miles since a frame off restoration when I bought it in early 2003 and there is no rust. The exterior paint
looks beautiful but has some flaws at close inspection. It has a 62 block, casting number 37828270, without an
engine number stamp. The engine has approximately 10K after full rebuild, starts on the first kick and vary
reliable. It has an Edelbrock Performer carb and manifold and a complete 340 HP aluminum GM manifold and Carter
carb setup. The original seats have been died black, a new dash pad, new windshield, and everything works except
the clock and radio. Anew set of kick panels are included as well as all my receipts.
The car is perfect for driving and enjoying an affordable icon or even commuting. It would be a perfect a
resto-mode project!

Watch this creative way to pull a truck's engine
Fri, 08 Mar 2013Living in an apartment complex has its benefits, but for shade-tree mechanics who like/need to work on their own cars, it definitely has a number of disadvantages. Relatively simple tasks such as brake jobs and oil changes are difficult when you don't have dedicated driveway space, to say nothing of more in-depth repairs... like pulling an engine, for example.
For these types of challenges, a little ingenuity and plenty of muscle are needed to get the job done. Scroll down to watch these four men snatch the V8 out of a Chevrolet K1500 using nothing but a chain, landscape timber and good ol' fashioned brute strength. Good work, gentlemen.
Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]
Mon, 18 Mar 2013Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting?

GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue
Wed, 14 Nov 2012General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic models due to a defect in the driver's airbag system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag has a shorting bar which may contact two internal terminals. If that happens during a crash, the supplemental restraint may not deploy, increasing the risk of driver injury. The recall includes a total of 2,949 units.
GM will contact owners and replace the steering wheel airbag coil at no cost. At this point, it's unclear when the recall will begin, though owners may contact the automaker at 1-800-521-7300 for more information. You may also take a closer look at the full NHTSA notice below.
