1971 Corvette 350/270 Automatic
For sale is a 1971 Chevrolet Corvette equipped with the original 350/270 horsepower with a TH400 automatic transmission. The car is in the original color of Mille Miglia Red with the original tan vinyl interior. The car has never been wrecked and was only repainted because the original paint had faded. A death in the family forces the sale of the car. The current family has owned the car for over 25 years, and in that time, has only used it for short cruises and car shows. It has been stored inside since the current owner purchased the car and has not seen rain or snow as long as they have owned the car. The body tag is missing since the repaint. Since the car was repainted, less than 100 miles have been put on the car. The interior is believed to be original to the car, it is the same that it was purchased with more than 25 years ago. The engine was recently freshened up with new intake manifold gaskets and the intake was repainted . The original carburetor was replaced with a Holley that looks correct for the car, the carb was professionally rebuilt due to the car sitting for the last 7-8 years. The fuel tank was emptied and cleaned out as well. I tried to find the engine block numbers to verify that the engine is original to the car, but they are not visible on the engine block. The casting number of the engine is a 3970010. Fresh engine oil and filter were just done as well. There were new spark plugs and wires installed. The car starts and runs very good with minor smoke on starting, typical of valve stems seals getting hard after 42 years, it clears up after shortly starting. New drive belts were installed on the alternator and power steering. There is no A/C. The painted T-Tops are in very good condition inside and out and all latches work as they should. The removable rear window has the latches in good operable condition as well. The manual windows and locks all work as they should. All major electrical systems operate as they should, however, the windshield wipers do not function. The car has not been in the rain for the last 25 years so the wipers were never needed. The original wheels are in very good condition and the tires have excellent tread on the BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires in P225/70R15. The Corvette goes down the road smoothly without vibrations or noises. The transmission engages all gears and shifts smoothly and the engine has good power throughout the entire power band. There are some spots in the frame near the rear in front of the rear wheels that have rust holes, but appears to be repairable. The car has always been stored winters and in a climate controlled dry storage. The odometer on the car shows 27,000 miles are believed to be 127,000. All of the chrome bumpers are very nice original condition, as well as the original trunk rack. There is an aftermarket stereo installed, as well as a speaker box in the rear storage area that was carpeted to blend into the interior. There is a clear Illinois title. The car is still considered used, with that being said, there is no warranties or guarantee included and is sold as is. International buyers are welcomed. Shipping costs are the responsibility of the buyer, but I can assist in loading and will work with your shipper. Inspections are available and welcomed before bidding. $500 deposit due within 48 hours of auction close. Full payment is due within 7 days.

On the eve of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Ford confirmed it will return to the French endurance race in 2016 and campaign the new GT racecar 50 years after three GT40s swept the podium at the Circuit de la Sarthe. The factory will back a two-team, four-car effort that will compete in the World Endurance Championship and the Tudor United SportsCar Championship running cars operated by Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates. The GT racecar will make its track debut in January at the Rolex 24 at Daytona, and the driver lineup will be announced later. "But rest assured, there's quite a line forming out the door," Ganassi said at the announcement. The GT is the modern successor to the iconic GT40, which won Le Mans four straight years from 1966-1969. The racecar is a rolling testbed of Ford's latest technologies, including a powerful twin-turbo EcoBoost V6. The car also makes extensive use of carbon-fiber pieces and advanced aerodynamics. Ford tapped Multimatic Motorsports of Canada and Roush Yates Engines to aid in the development of the GT racer. The road-going version, which was revealed in January at the Detroit Auto Show, is also set to launch next year. It caps Ford's growing performance lineup, and the company has ambitious plans to launch more than 12 new sporty models by 2020, including hot metal like the Focus RS, F-150 Raptor, and Shelby GT350R. The GT embodies Ford's best tech, but news of its return to Le Mans immediately conjured images of the company's fierce rivalry in the 1960s with Ferrari and intense competition with Porsche. "When the GT40 competed at Le Mans in the 1960s, Henry Ford II sought to prove Ford could beat endurance racing's most legendary manufacturers," Ford executive chairman Bill Ford said in a statement. "We are still extremely proud of having won this iconic race four times in a row, and that same spirit that drove the innovation behind the first Ford GT still drives us today." Ford is going back to Le Mans. Somewhere, Hank the Deuce must be smiling.

UPDATE: The official press release says that "Volt [sales were] up 7 percent," but Randy Fox let AutoblogGreen know that this is simply due to a change in the fleet/retail mix between March 2013 and 2014. The actual number sold was exactly the same in the two months. A month ago, Nissan's director of EV sales and marketing, Toby Perry, said he expected to see the Leaf's sales momentum continue into March. It wasn't a big leap, since January and February were slow sales months in 2013 (around 640 each) before a big climb to 2,200 in March. In 2014, the first two months of the year were better (around 1,300 each) but Nissan can still be happy that the Leaf just had the best March ever and its second-highest sales month ever, with 2,507 sold. That's a 12.1 percent increase from 2013 and Perry said in a statement to AutoblogGreen that one reason is all of the buyers who are becoming evangelists for the vehicle. "We've also seen an increase in showroom traffic as we enhanced our marketing presence in March," he said. Nissan pointed to cities like Washington, DC, Raleigh-Durham, NC and urban areas in Texas as strong Leaf markets last month. On the Chevy Volt front, January and February were also slow months in 2014, down roughly half from the 2,000-ish the plug-in hybrid was selling at the end of 2013. For 2014, sales were up slightly from the first two months of the year and Chevy spokesman Randy Fox told AutoblogGreen that the March number was "pretty flat, year-over-year." Even with that warning, we were surprised to see the total come in at 1,478. Why's that? Because the total for March 2013 was ... 1,478. So, yeah, that's pretty steady even if there were 26 selling days in March period this year compared to 27 last year. As always, our more complete report of last month's green car sales will be coming soon. News Source: General Motors, Nissan Green Chevrolet GM Nissan Electric Hybrid PHEV ev sales
