I bought this car 4 years ago. According to the previous owner it was last driven in the late 1980s when he decided to do a body off restoration and completely disassembled the car. Over the next several years the frame was sandblasted, primed, and painted. New bushings, bearings, S.S. break and fuel lines, gas tank, ball joints, breaks, clutch, pressure plate, flywheel, etc.The original Muncie 4-speed transmission and rear end rebuilt (3:70 posi). A low mileage 454 C.I. block was installed as well. I started working on the car about 2 months ago by removing the frontend which had prior damage and very poorly repaired. A new Eckler's one piece frontend was installed.I pulled the heads to check the condition of the motor. There is no ridge on cylinder walls and internals are very clean. I had valves ground at that time. Motor runs very smooth. All the usual big block parts are in place as can be seen in pictures. Here are some of the casting numbers and dates: - Heads 3872702 A 14 6 and A 18 6 - Intake 3866948 A 8 6 - Water pump 3856284 L 19 5 - Alternator 100693 6 A 17 - Bell housing 3872444 - Seat belts 3 A 66 The original color code is 984 sunfire yellow with black vinyl interior. The car has no power options and comes with everything pictured which makes it pretty complete. What I do know that is missing is 1 upper outer windshield trim, power antenna, radiator shroud, most headlight parts, and probably some small items I am not aware of. Here are some pluses for the car. Dash pads are excellent. Seat covers are decent and could be used as is. Excellent cluster. Body lines look very good. Tires are almost new. All glass is there. I have owned about 15 C2 cars and all the laborous hard work is done which will make for an easy project. I will pack up the parts in the car and help with loading. It only rolls and steers. The car is being sold as is with no warranty. A $1,000 deposit is due within 2 days of auction's end and the balance within 7 more days or when the car is picked up or arrangements are made for shipping by the buyer. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me on my cell. Thanks, John cell: 269 420 0585 |

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]
Sun, 26 Jan 2014If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors
Mon, 04 Feb 2013As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize. Scroll down below for an official announcement from General Motors.
"Turbo" Chevrolet Camaro is a 700-HP fantasy car come to life [w/video]
Thu, 07 Feb 2013For a concept car built to promote an animated movie about a snail that wants to go racing, this thing ain't half bad. The outsized monster you see before you started life as a Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, and then went through a big-time Hollywood makeover before being positioned on the Chevrolet stand here in Chicago.
This 2013 "Turbo" Camaro Coupe is getting the promotion machine ratcheted up for a new DreamWorks tale by the name of, you guessed it, Turbo. Coming this summer, the movie will follow one snail's quest to become a race driver worthy of making the cut at the Indy 500. Like many DreamWorks vehicles before it, we're guessing that the petrolhead snail will star in a movie that adults (especially racing fans) with have no trouble watching with their kids. Check out the trailer below to see if you agree.
As for the car, we're told that it is "instrumental" in transforming Turbo from snail into racer. Helping the beastly pony car in this mighty task, is an ankle-cracking front splitter matched by a ungodly huge rear wing out back, a COPO hood and a supercharged (yes, supercharged) V8 engine making more than 700 horsepower. 24-inch wheels all the way around - 10-inches wide in front and 15-inches wide in back - should allow the "Turbo" Camaro to hook up with ease, as well.
