1961 C1 Corvette Convertible
Early Generation Corvette “driver” with removable Hard Top.
This car is told to be originally a California car. The current owner bought it from a Corvette specialty dealer
in Tempe AZ in June of 2006. There was no history provided concerning previous ownership but the car looked good
underneath and drove nicely so he bought it. After the purchase he had the carburetor and the starter rebuilt and
replaced the battery cables, spark plugs and wires. Outside of a recent tune up there hasn’t been much needed in
the last 5k miles. The odometer reads 35,113 now and was at 30,000 when he purchased the car. It is thought that
the 30,000 was more representative of when the restoration was done by a previous owner. The engine is a 350 with
nice power but not the original motor.
This car is a fun car to drive and turns heads everywhere it goes. Not a show car but one with good bones that can
be driven and enjoyed. The exterior is Ermine White with a Fawn beige interior. The transmission is a 2 speed
Powerglide. The removable hard top fits tight except for a small place at the back where the rubber has aged.
There isn’t a soft top at this time.
A fun car to own and enjoy as well as a piece of history.
Pre-Purchase inspections are welcomed

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!

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.

Watch a 2015 Corvette Z06 run the quarter in 11.7 seconds

Sun, Dec 28 2014

We're not writing about this because it's an amazing run, we're writing about it because it appears to be the first run. Someone took a 2015 Corvette Z06 to Royal Purple Raceway in Baytown, Texas and blasted it down through the quarter mile. It's still wearing the dealer number in wax pen on the windshield and dealer plates, so this example is fresh from the mold. It's also a seven-speed manual. General Motors said the row-your-own Z06 can do the 'strip in 11.2 seconds, and they undoubtedly had a professional driver and more than one run to set that time. To have Just Some Guy show up at the raceway and do an 11.7 at 120.54 mph on his first run means we expect good things to come as Z06s get delivered to their owners. Check out the run in the video.
