1987 Corvette- with custom C-5 Body kit. 

Exterior-  Blue paint is in good condition with a few scratches.  The front bumper has been backed into by my wife as it sit in our driveway causing the damage seen in last picture.  (Photo of front damage taken approx. 5 weeks after detailed pics of when car was cleaned prior to wife incident). The tires are decent with very few miles driven on them but are 4+ years old.  The rims are original to car. And exhaust system is from a 2003 vette to match the C5 body.  Targa top is cracked but has been silicone to prevent leaks. 

Interior- The interior is grey, with leather seats. The interior door panels where replaced a couple of years ago, leather on the steering wheel is original with cracking in leather and floor mats are original. The dash has no cracks. All digital gauges work as they should. The stereo was updated to a more modern system. The seats are in good condition, with no holes.

Engine- The engine runs great and has been reliable but the cooling fan has gotten week and it has started overheating reaching temps of around 240 .  But no damage has occurred due to overheating due to e no longer driving it.  Local mechanic has said this could be fixed by putting dual fans on the car.  I am short of time and no longer want to sink my money into older cars so im selling this jewel as is and passing it on to someone else who has the time money and drive to work on cars.  The transmission shifts smooth and correct. 

This will be a nice ride for someone who wants to fix a few things on it.  Decided not to put any more time and money into this car and sell it cheap to get it out of my driveway.    It will drive but would need to be trailered away due to the fan and cooling issue.

Veyron and C7 Corvette join cast of Transformers 4

Wed, 29 May 2013

Like the Fast & Furious franchise, the Michael Bay-directed series of Transformers movies has become known as much for its bad acting as its impressive lineup of cars. As filming just started for Transformers 4, Bay's website has confirmed two new cars for the next installment as well as a makeover for everyone's favorite tractor trailer hero, Optimus Prime.
Joining the cast of T4 are a "race-inspired" Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse. While Bay's website did not supply names for either car, Bugatti is reporting on its Facebook page that the Veyron will join the Autobots. Speaking of the good guys, top Autobot Optimus Prime is getting an all-new body based on a Western Star with a gaudy appearance that was seemingly inspired by Trick My Truck - right down to the six smoke stacks and side pipes!

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.

Supercharged 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 takes the C7 beyond the ZR1

Mon, 13 Jan 2014



The Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
After a bright-yellow false start, here is the real thing: the fourth-generation, 2015 Corvette Z06. If Chevrolet makes a ZR1 version of the C7 Corvette, it's going to be absolutely mega, because the Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
