If you like muscle cars, this car will definetly get your blood flowing. This baby HAULS!!!
Very low to the ground, it handles like a Go Kart, the steering is very tight, and precise, a slight turn here and a slight turn there and it's there, there's no swaing back and forth.

Exterior and Interior of car has been freshly maticulously restored, I decided to restore it ONLY because it was a 4 speed. It runs great, nice and smooth running. I have not messed with the engine. It has always passed smog without a hitch.

Gas milage is about 19MPG

I've owned the car since 2005 and it's been ALLOT of fun, runs GREAT, very dependable.
The restoration was finished 2 years ago. It's a VERY Clean car, has NEVER been in any kind of wreck, perfectly straight and get ALLOT of looks.

I am selling it, because, I just bought a 69 Firebird project car, which I am going to restore and clone it into a 69 Trans Am, I need the money from the Vette to finish the Trans Am

This is a $3000 paint job, Color is a beautiful Chevy Marina Blue
Was painted with 3 base coats of PPG Marina Blue (Metallic), then immediately shot with 3 coats of PPG Concept 2000 Clear, after 48 hours of drying the entire car was color sanded and buffed out to give you that deep show car gloss. It is absolutely beautiful.

Minor problems with car: Cruise Control doesn't work, wouldn't cost much to get it working again, for me, with a 4 speed? Never would use it.
Trany has a minor leak that drips 1 or 2 drops onto the exhaust system, to repair the leak the tranny would have to be removed. Not that big an issue. No puddles or anything like that.
Wipers work fine, but they don't squirt water.

Has a new power antenna, but stoopped working a few months back.
Outside of that, it runs GREAT! Always passes smog without a problem.

I realize it's a HIGH milage car, but it's ALL highway miles, if you've been to California you'll know, to get anywere you have to be on a highway. You can easily put 150 miles per day on a daily driver, this was.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray convertible headed for Geneva debut

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

While most of the world is still coming down from all the hype surrounding the debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this month, we're already looking to the future. And according to Autoweek, the next chapter in the C7 story will unfold at the Geneva Motor Show in March. That's right, General Motors is reportedly using the Swiss stage as its venue to debut the Corvette Stingray convertible.
If this strikes you as odd, you aren't alone. After all, with a car that's such an American icon, we'd fully expect Chevrolet to unveil it here on our shores in either Chicago or New York. But according to Autoweek, GM is looking to boost export sales of its halo car, and since the C7 was engineered to compete with the world's best and brightest, showing it off in Geneva is somewhat of a smart move. What's more, those with sharp memories will recall that GM used the Geneva expo to debut the sixth-generation C6 Corvette convertible back in March 2004, so there's also a precedent.
Details surrounding the Corvette Stingray convertible are still slim, though we fully expect the 6.2-liter V8 and choice of either six-speed automatic or seven-speed manual transmissions to carry over unchanged. Prototypes spotted on the road showed the car fitted with a cloth convertible roof, as well.

C7 Corvette turbo with 1,000 horsepower promised from Hennessey

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

If you can't wait for the next-generation Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Hennessey says they will have you covered. The Texas-based company has announced it will offer a spate of upgrades for the 2014 Corvette ranging from a range of bolt-on options all the way up to a 1,000-horsepower, twin-turbo system. Buyers can start with a cold air intake, cat-back exhaust or stainless steel long-tube headers, but Hennessey says it will also offer up three stages of forced induction mayhem should those bits and baubles not provide enough thrust.
Those choices start with a supercharger system good for up to 700 hp, though Hennessey will gladly ditch the blower in favor of two turbos. Doing so will spin the crank to the tune of 800 horsepower all the way up to a certifiably ludicrous 1,000 ponies. There's no word on how much these tricks will cost you - or when they will be available, as we're guessing they haven't gotten their hands on the car yet - but you can head over to the Hennessey site to drop them a line if you're curious.
