Up for sale is my 1959 chevrolet Suburban Hot Rod with an aluminum ZZ4 crate motor that produces over 355 hp and over 400 ft.lbs. of torque! This is a hot rod that will carry your whole family + dogs in style, and fast! And it drives, shifts, stops, etc like a dream! This Suburban was converted a few years ago by its previous owner from its original state (an army-issued vehicle with a 6 cylinder engine, manual trans on the tree) to what it is today- one kick-a*@ fun car! It has the ZZ4 crate motor, rebuilt 350 trans, power steering, power brakes, side pipes, Edelbrock carb, upgraded suspension, rear end, brakes, steering column, steering wheel, ac/heat unit, etc. The Suburban features full glass all the way back, three rows of seats with new upholstery, new carpet up front, new gauge cluster, new cd/radio unit, freshly painted dash, new front glass, awesome chrome wheels, rear barn door style doors (which I think more functional than the clamshell style), and THE ORIGINAL WOOD FLOOR! And being a southern vehicle, there are no nightmare rust issues here! Yes you will find some surface rust, and a small spot here or there that would need attention to be perfect (see pics), but thats it- come check it out for yourself! No rotted out floorboards, quarters, doors, etc. Again- it even has the original wood floor! Now this was not built as a high-end show car- it was intended to be a fun daily family cruiser. Where I am going with this is that while the car is 100% functional, very responsive, and 100% ready to use and enjoy right now as is, it still needs some finishing, as mentioned below. Or it would make a great candidate for a complete frame-off restoration (either now or sometime down the road); all the panels are straight, doors open and shut and are aligned properly, hood is aligned properly, etc. It really is a very straight car with very few issues, and its 54 years old! And its a 3 owner car- me, the last guy, and the US Army! Now for some of the issues: it needs a paint job if you do not like the kind of rat rod look it has going for it right now… The ac/heat unit is not hooked up right now (never was under my ownership), cd player is there but needs speakers, speedo is not hooked up, it needs a headliner, its missing a windshield wiper (I kept it garaged and never drove it in the rain), there is no carpet in the rear (the wood floor is exposed on purpose) and some of the rear windows will need attention (a few of the panels are cracked and most of the rear windows could use new seals). Oh and there are no seatbelts in the rear… Other than that I can’t think of any other major issues. The Suburban is being sold “as is”, so of course it would be great if the buyer can come see the vehicle in person here in Marietta GA. If that is not possible please ask any and all questions before bidding! I have it garaged and can help with transporting the vehicle (storing it for a short time, meeting the driver of the transport company, etc)- I have shipped many vehicles in the past and am very familiar with the process. If you just have to have it and can’t wait 7 days for the auction to end, make me an offer and if we come to an agreement I will add a buy-it-now option to the listing. I have thoroughly enjoyed owning this vehicle and will be very sad to see it go, but am trying to purchase a house, so some toys must go :( Thanks for checking out my auctions! |

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray convertible headed for Geneva debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013While 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.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette C7 Convertible offers a few more views before reveal
Mon, 04 Mar 2013Over the weekend, Chevrolet released its first images of the new 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Now, ahead of the droptop's official introduction tomorrow at the Geneva Motor Show, the automaker has given us a few more shots of the softop C7 showing off the car's rump albeit from a high, strategically positioned angle.
From this angle, it's hard to get a sense for how long and flat the decklid really is, but we can easily see that, like the rest of the C7's design, the new convertible's decklid and tonneau cover are far more detailed than the current car. We also get a better look at the rear haunches sans brake vents, which have apparently been moved to underneath the car in order to accommodate the top's hard cover.
As for the overall styling of the C7 convertible, with the top erected, we get some idea of what a coupe design (as opposed to the Stingray's fastback shape) would look like on this car. The C5 Corvette most recently had a coupe model that did away with the large glass hatchback, and we recently reported on a low-cost "coupe" model potentially being added to the C7's repertoire.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray priced from $51,995*
Fri, 26 Apr 2013After months of speculation, Chevrolet has finally revealed the official starting price of the 2014 Corvette Stingray. The base MSRP for the 450-horsepower Stingray Coupe will be $51,995, while the Stingray Convertible will go for $56,995 (*both prices include a $995 destination fee). This means that the price increase from 2013 to 2014 is just $1,400 for the coupe and $2,395 for the convertible - pretty modest increases considering the upgrade in specifications. Of course, neither price accounts for the sort of dealer markup that might grace early C7 window stickers, especially since less than a third of all Chevrolet dealers will be allocated Corvette models to sell at the car's launch.
Now, these prices are for the base car, so if you're wondering how much a fully loaded Stingray will run, Chevy has given us a good indication of that as well. The coupe we saw on display at the Detroit Auto Show (shown above), for example, would run $73,360 including options such as the $2,800 Z51 Performance Package, $2,495 competition sport seats and the $1,795 Magnetic Ride Control option - just to name a few. Stepping up to the 3LT trim level that brings a full leather interior will run an extra $8,005 over the base price.
While $20,000 in options may seem like a lot, this "as-tested" price still has the C7 competitively priced against rival coupes like the Porsche 911 and Nissan GT-R. Speaking of price comparisons, Chevrolet also points out that the C7 Stingray Z51 costs $2,200 less than the C6 Grand Sport while delivering better acceleration (0-60 mph in less than four seconds) and improved track performance (including more than 1 g in cornering).
