1970 Muncie m-20 trans with 12 bolt posi 3.31 gears
This car was purchased at Joslin Chevrolet in Traverse City Michigan on Feb,27 1970 for $3393.13 plus tax by Harland C. Smith. He traded in a 66 Nova that he got $700 for. I have the security agreement as well as the bill of sale and the life insurance policy he added. Options listed on the bill of sale are -tinted glass-posit axel-4 spd trans-ps -p/b radio-rear seat speaker =cowl hood and SS 396 Equip.
The car overall is in good shape by this I mean the floors, rockers, cowl trunk are very very solid. The doors open and shut very very well. There are some rust issues and they are as follows. Lower corners of both fenders. The structure is still intact and are very repairable. Dent to the front of the hood very repairable. The following needs replaced-- deck lid both quartes and outer as well as trunk drop offs. (these are included in the sale!) Front bumper filler panel. There is a hole in the frame in front of the lower trailing arm mount. Should be an easy repair. (see pic- I have never seen one rust there before)
Engine is a 1970 396/350 HP out of a 70 Chevelle SS CTX code. Engine was running well when purchased. Missing is the carb, air cleaner, Also included is a complete Flowmaster exhaust from a 70 Chevelle SS. It sounded very good. Trans is a 1970 M-20 out of a 1970 Chevelle Works well with newer clutch flywheels and correct bell housing. The reverse lock out is still on the car! Rear is a posi with 3.31 gears-boxed lower arms and sway bar not installed but included. Wheels are after market 15x7 with new tires. I have maybe 1000 miles on them. (note you may trade them for a set of 14x7 SS wheels and new tires. The rims however need restored. your choice.) Interior was a blue cloth bench however I bought 2 white bucket seats for it. Dash need replaced.
This is not an auction I have set a price on the car and it is firm. The price is $10250. I could list it for 14K and try for offers but I am very busy now so I put my bottom dollar on it. As not to waste my or your time. Please feel free to come see the car or call me 765 206 0350 Steve
I live 1 hour north of Indy.

Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction
Sun, 17 Feb 2013It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
Opel's own ad shows Ampera-e beating Opels in drag race
Thu, Sep 8 2016The Opel Ampera-e isn't expected to set any world records on a quarter-mile drag strip. But when it comes to crossing a major boulevard, though, the European version of the Chevrolet Bolt electric vehicle will more than hold its own, potentially scaring inattentive pedestrians everywhere. According to a 35-second video posted by General Motors' Opel division, at least. Opel set up the Ampera-e against four other small-and-sporty vehicles, including racing versions of the Opel Adam and Opel Astra as well as stock versions of the Opel Insignia and Corsa (what, you expected a Corvette to be in there?). With the EV's off-the-line torque as a selling point, Opel showed the Ampera-e beating the other vehicles in a 30-meter (100-foot) drag race. Of course, the video also shows the EV getting passed by some of the others soon after, but the point was made. Opel doubled down by adding the tagline "Fun to Drive" at the end of the video. While Opel hasn't revealed the single-charge range of the Ampera-e, it should be roughly the same as the Chevrolet Bolt, which will be about 200 miles. In addition, the Ampera-e, like the Bolt in the US, will get 200 horsepower from its electric motor, and will be able to go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in less than seven seconds. The Ampera-e will debut at the 2016 Paris Motor Show later this month. General Motors said in February that Europe would get the Ampera-e by next year. Opel had previously used the Ampera name with the Euro version of the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in.

1956 Corvette SR-2 factory racer profiled
Mon, Jan 19 2015The Chevrolet Corvette has earned its place as America's sports car, capable of taking on the best the world can throw at it. Much of that winning reputation was earned with victories on the track. Now, there was a chance to own an early piece of the nameplate's motorsport history in the form of a 1956 Corvette SR-2 racer, but some deep pockets were necessary to get it, with an estimate of $6.885 million. The story behind the SR-2 is fascinating. In 1956, famous General Motors designer Harley Earl's son was racing in a Ferrari. Obviously, that wasn't going to work given his father's position within the automaker, and Harley and Corvette engineer Zora Arkus-Duntov got to work on a faster racecar. Three were made. This one was reportedly the first, and for 1957 it also received a fuel-injected V8 making a claimed 331 horsepower and four-speed manual gearbox, according to "Corvette Mike," the owner and seller. The SR-2 went on display in Scottsdale, AZ appropriately timed to coincide with the big Barrett-Jackson auction there that wrapped up this weekend. The car wasn't part of that event; instead marque specialist Mike Vietro sold the racer as a private treaty sale. Company spokesperson Troy Worrell told Autoblog both the bids and identities of the bidders will remain undisclosed. The video above goes into even deeper detail about this rare, finned Vette or check out the car's full description for even more info.
