1971 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible Stingray, white with black interior. I bought the car after it had sat in a garage for about 15 years after the owner got dementia. The paint was done, interior was in a pile, and the car barely ran. I rebuilt all the brakes including rebuilt calipers, lines, and parking brake parts. The wheels and tires were replaced with Yokohamas and wire wheels. The fuel system needed to be cleaned and the carb replaced. I put the interior together and installed aftermarket gauges and had the speedo and tach cleaned and inspected. Still have the original gauges if you want to reinstall them. All the gauges work as they should. I had no top so I bought a used top frame and had a new top, seals, and cables installed. Not cheap to find a top! The wipers work with a switch on the console but the high low can be adjusted with the original switch. Headlights have been changed over to electric actuators so no more air hoses to worry about leaking. The vette can be driven now but it still needs a few things to make it more than a fun driver. It is crazy fast and looks pretty sweet going down the road. It think the 79,000 oriinal miles is about right. I would guess the front end was probably hit years ago, the motor was sold, and it sat for some time. The guy I bought it from installed the 73 front end and a 93 Camaro LT1 motor with aluminum heads to make it go fast. The motor looks really clean inside, but it does have a few seeps from sitting for 15 years. Plan on a few gaskets in the near future. Paint overall looks pretty nice, it has some small body cracks but very minimal. I bought a 2001 MR2 for my daughter and this car body is in way better shape! The suspension has never been replaced so I would guess sometime in the future it would all need to be done. Not bad to drive, but I'm sure it would tighten up the suspension if you put all new bushings and shocks on it. the frame looks like it is in real good shape, probably because it was off the road for so many years. Interior is mostly all new except for the door panels. Seats must have been recovered too because they look nice under the seat covers. This is not an all original corvette but it is a nice driver and could be a nice ride without too much work. High book is up to $38,000.00 so a good driver should be worth my reserve. I did not plan on selling it, but we all know how that goes. Life always gets in the way of life. If you have any questions please e-mail me and I will tell you what I know. I have put about 1500 miles on it since I've had it. It's a fun summer car and gets lots of attention. Convertible Stingrays are kool cars! You are responsible for all shippping, but I will do all I can on this side to get it loaded. I also have some extra parts and pieces for the interior I will include. I'm sure there are a few other little things I cannot remember, but overall its a good car.

There once was a time when Daewoo was one of the biggest companies in South Korea. It was larger than both LG and Samsung, and second only to Hyundai. But these days the name is all but gone.
GM recalls Chevy Express, GMC Savana over rollaway concern
Mon, 21 Jan 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall notice for a small number of General Motors fullsize vans due to possible rollaway concerns. On certain 2013 Chevrolet Express and 2013 GMC Savana models, it is possible to remove the key from the ignition without the shifter being in park.
Only 980 total units are being affected by this recall, and GM is fixing the issue by replacing the ignition cylinder and associated keys. Affected Chevy vans were built during most of November and December while its GMC counterpart was only built for a week in November. The recall goes into effect on January 23, and to find out if your vehicle applies to the recall, the GM and NHTSA contact numbers can be found on the official recall notice, which is posted below.
NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
