1966 Chevrolet Corvette on 2040-cars
Hortonville, New York, United States
If you have any questions please email at: jorgejsscanio@welshhome.net .
You are viewing a pretty special Laguna Blue 1966 Corvette Sting Ray coupe. It features a balanced and blueprinted
matching numbers 327 cubic inch, 300 hp V8 mated to the legendary Powerglide automatic transmission. What makes
this particular Corvette special beyond its very original condition is the unusual combination of features found on
this Sting Ray. It will be very difficult to find another 1966 Corvette finished in Laguna blue that also features
an automatic transmission, factory sidepipe exhaust, original teak steering wheel AND original knock--off wheels.
The wheels alone, if you were to shop for them separately, would be valued somewhere between $10-15,000.
Here is a link to a photo album of many close-up photos of the undercarriage plus several photos of the engine
while in the rebuilding process:
This Corvette is ready to be driven and enjoyed as its being offered. The motor is very strong. I've put about
200 miles on the car during my ownership and it has been nothing but pure Corvette performance all the way. The
paint is either original or a very old respray, so it has a wonderful patina that is one of the main reasons I was
attracted to this car. And Laguna blue is just a stunning color for the coupe, especially when you consider its
rarity. The only items I've found to be in need of attention are the windshield wipers, which don't work at all,
and the stereo, which does not come up to full volume. In my experience, this usually means the speaker has
decided to retire after 50 years. It is currently riding on Michelin X tires that I can only assume were fitted
sometime in the mid-70's. I've included photos of the cowl tag and the numbers on the motor for your convenience.
Please let me know if you have any specific questions I can answer for you, or if you'd like to come out and look
it over in person, please let me know. And interesting trades are always welcome. I'm particularly into Mopars
and Cadillacs, but I love all classic cars.

GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect
Tue, 17 Aug 20102010 Buick Enclave - Click above for high-res image gallery
The summer of 2010's recall hit parade continues unabated today, with General Motors having just announced that it is asking 243,403 owners of its 2009-2010 Lambda crossovers to bring their three-row haulers in for inspection. The culprit? Second-row seat belts in select Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook CUVs have "failed to perform properly in a crash."
According to GM, a second-row seat-side trim piece is to blame, as it can impede the upward rotation of the buckle after the seat is folded flat. As a result, if the buckle makes contact with the seat frame, cosmetic damage can occur, potentially requiring additional force to operate the buckle properly. So far, no great shakes, but in the process of applying that additional force, the occupant may push the buckle cover down to the strap, potentially revealing and depressing the red release button. As a result of this, the belt may not latch, or in certain cases, it may actually appear to be latched when, in fact, it isn't.
GM recalls Chevy Express, GMC Savana over rollaway concern
Mon, 21 Jan 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall notice for a small number of General Motors fullsize vans due to possible rollaway concerns. On certain 2013 Chevrolet Express and 2013 GMC Savana models, it is possible to remove the key from the ignition without the shifter being in park.
Only 980 total units are being affected by this recall, and GM is fixing the issue by replacing the ignition cylinder and associated keys. Affected Chevy vans were built during most of November and December while its GMC counterpart was only built for a week in November. The recall goes into effect on January 23, and to find out if your vehicle applies to the recall, the GM and NHTSA contact numbers can be found on the official recall notice, which is posted below.
Pure Vision Design TT Camaro has 1,400 reasons to want it
Wed, 06 Nov 2013We've talked about Pure Vision Design before, a California-based company that made waves at last year's SEMA show with its Martini-liveried, Indy-car-powered Ford Mustang. That same car later starred in a Petrolicious video we showed you just a few weeks back. The company's latest creation is a menacing car it calls the Pure Vision Design TT Camaro. Based on a 1972 model, this car shares the Martini Mustang's clean styling and obsession with details.
Unlike the Mustang, which draws its power from a mid-60s Lotus-Ford Indycar engine, the "TT" in this Camaro's name implies something far more potent. The Nelson Racing Engines 427-cubic-inch V8 has been fitted with a pair of turbochargers, with a claimed output of 1,400 horsepower. That's almost 1,000 more than the Martini Mustang.
A six-speed Magnum transmission dispatches that power to the ground, while Pirelli PZero tires are tasked with (somehow) trying to grip the road. Baer brakes hide behind those HRE rims, while JRI coilovers and HyperTech springs bless the Camaro with some degree of competency in the bends.
