Chevrolet Corvette on 2040-cars
Wadesville, Indiana, United States
1967 Corvette Convertible, real deal 427 big block car, in nice dry storage for many many years. Originally optioned with 427-390HP, automatic, side pipes, power brakes and was a radio delete model, crazy group of options! The automatic was removed years ago and converted to a 4-speed, the car was clearly an automatic car originally based on the engine stamp, and the PG designation written on the rear bulkhead. The original automatic radiator is still present with the integral transmission cooler fittings on the passenger side tank. Check out the engine stamp pad, sure looks authentic to me. Originally a Sunfire Yellow car with standard black vinyl interior as indicated by the trim tag, this car suffered some driver side damage years ago and was repaired in the 80's. It appears that the left front park light panel, left door, left rear fender, left lock pillar, and decklid were replaced. The left lower side fender louvers show some minor repair evidence from the back side, but does not appear to have been replaced. The replacement door is a real one year only 67 door with the lock control knob in the proper location. The body lines appear to be very nice, gaps are nice, hood and headlight fit is very good. Headlight buckets still retain 3 original T3 bulbs, and the dated motors have been removed, cleaned and lubed and ready to install. The car has received a set of stainless sleeved calipers and rebuilt master cylinder in recent years along with the rubber brake line hoses. The engine runs and sounds great, drives and stops. Frame is very solid, only minor rust, picture of front suspension shows typical surface rust flecks for an unrestored 50 year old car. Sorry, no tank sticker, gas tank has been replaced, sure, I wish it had one too!! So, why am I selling this big block Corvette?? I have way to many irons in the fire and other projects that I need to get completed ahead of this one. No, it is not a fire sale, if it doesn't meet my reserve, I will keep it stashed away until I do have time to get it done. This is probably the most complete, original big block project that is a super easy restoration, or just a quick paint job, minor maintenance, and cleaning for a daily driver. I am timing this auction to coincide with Bloomington Gold at Indianapolis Motor Speedway on June 25-27 since this car is located within 2 hours of the show. I will deliver it to the show free of charge, and the car will be available for inspection the week of the show. I strongly suggest personal inspection or hire a knowledgeable inspector. I am representing this car based on what I see and my personal opinion. There are plenty of very knowledgeable Corvette folks located within a couple of hours from the car. Send your experts to look at this car and let them tell you their opinion. I reserve the right to end the auction at any time for any reason, the car is for sale via other channels as well. I have set a reasonable reserve for this desirable 67 Big Block Corvette Convertible. Selling in "as-is" condition, do your homework and inspections, I can provide additional pictures.

Next-gen Chevy Cruze caught cruising in the cold
Wed, 13 Feb 2013Spy photographers have caught what looks like the next-generation Chevrolet Cruze out on snow patrol. The camo could be tricking our eyes, but it look like it has an even tidier, more rounded front end and even lower fenders in relation to the top of the hood. And either a chunk of camo has been wedged between the side mirrors and the doors, or the mirrors are up for revision, too.
The door handles have been moved up the side of the car, leading the way to a rear end that grows a bit in length. If the rumors are true, the coming second-generation Cruze sits on the new D2XX platform that will replace the Delta and Theta platforms at General Motors. A global architecture, the Cruze will be the first to get it, but it will underpin everything from next Chevrolet Volt to the Equinox and could be responsible for 2.5 million units by 2018. The next Cruze is expected to begin production in GM's Lordstown, Ohio plant in the third quarter of 2014.
Helicopter crashes on Top Gear Korea set while chasing Corvette ZR1
Mon, 11 Feb 2013The formula of Top Gear Korea is seemingly about the same as it is everywhere else in the world, including the flagship British original: involve interesting cars in fantastical situations with charismatic hosts. That prescription has proved to be pretty reliable over the years, and has lead to some truly memorable and exciting pieces of television.
Something like that was undoubtedly what the Korean producers were after when they lined up this segment - a drag race between a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and an AH1 Cobra military helicopter. The planners almost certainly did not expect the filming of the segment to go quite as wrong as it actually did, with the helicopter actually crashing into the dirt after the "drag race" had been completed. Thankfully, we're told that no one was seriously injured in the crash, but the footage, in the video below, is pretty damn chilling to watch, nevertheless.
C7 Corvette makes inaugural ad appearance in Chevy's first spot with new slogan
Mon, 11 Feb 2013Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" tagline has finally been run into the ground, replaced with the Bowtie brand's "Find New Roads" slogan that's part of parent General Motors' plan to unify its everyday brand's marketing efforts worldwide. The new Chevrolet campaign was ushered in on prime time last night during the Grammy Awards on CBS, and the first spot, a 90-second full-line ad, also marks the first appearance of the 2014 Corvette Stingray in a commercial.
Being a full-line ad, the commercial is composed of vignettes centered on different vehicles in the brand's lineup. The all-new 2014 Impala also makes its first commercial appearance in dapper fashion, and time is spent on a skateboarding Sonic and a bouquet of brightly colored Spark hatchbacks driven by fashionable women. The ad starts and ends with Chevy's green halo car, the Volt, along with a young girl with her robotic dog (yes, really).
Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" campaign got off to a rocky start in the fall of 2010, but it did last for a couple of years with some tweaks. This new one, "Find New Roads" seems more intent on drawing new customers into the fold than the outgoing tagline, which seemed to play more toward the brand faithful. It admittedly reminds us more than a little the short-lived "Find Your Own Road" Saab motto (which, we note, was conceived while the Swedish brand was under GM's control), but no matter, we still think it's got more long-term potential than "Runs Deep."
