Ellicottville, New York, United States

This is an all original survivor with some of the best paperwork I have seen .
I have driven many Corvettes and most drive well , but this one is exceptional , I doubt that anyone
would disagree as to the performance of this car . As 1972 brought the last of the LT-1 cars and the first of the
Elkhart green , combined with the last year for a chrome bumper car and the first for the actual VIN # to decode an
LT-1 ( and big block that year ) in the car it makes for an interesting piece of corvette history . This car comes
with a book of paperwork that shows ownership retention to detail as to keep it documented for future history in
the Corvette world . Even back then someone cared enough to keep all the original paperwork and documents as they
had the foresight to know this would be a sought after car . I have the original Titled when issued new , even the
original mailing envelope it came in .Condition is remarkable as to the function of the car , everything works
properly , so you will not be sorting through all the gremlins to make it work as it should . Interior speaks
volumes as to the care a survivor has been given , the body is in great shape and should not be restored in my
opinion but rather preserved as a true survivor . Car has its all original body and paint , much new to the
mechanical s . Original Protec-O-Plate . It is a wide ratio 4 speed with 3.70 rear . All original motor . When the
car was judged as a 2nd place NCRS red ribbon , much of the deficits were corrected ( new heater core , cigarette
lighter /seat did not retract well , one marker light out , and headlamps returned to T-3's ) to bring this car up
to a Top Flight NCRS car .The interior is original as well and not restored , if you like original cars then this
is a great one .

Watch this creative way to pull a truck's engine
Fri, 08 Mar 2013Living in an apartment complex has its benefits, but for shade-tree mechanics who like/need to work on their own cars, it definitely has a number of disadvantages. Relatively simple tasks such as brake jobs and oil changes are difficult when you don't have dedicated driveway space, to say nothing of more in-depth repairs... like pulling an engine, for example.
For these types of challenges, a little ingenuity and plenty of muscle are needed to get the job done. Scroll down to watch these four men snatch the V8 out of a Chevrolet K1500 using nothing but a chain, landscape timber and good ol' fashioned brute strength. Good work, gentlemen.
Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood.

GM recalls 8,500 Chevrolet Malibu models for rear suspension glitch
Mon, 04 Feb 2013According to a letter from General Motors to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, flaws in the build process of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu have led to the recall of 8,519 cars. Units built between December 6, 2011 and January 15, 2013 may have been assembled with rear suspension cradles that had insufficient torque applied to certain bolts. That out-of-spec assembly could lead to issues ranging from slight noises to a loss of vehicle control.
The problem was first noticed in December of last year by a GM test fleet driver and eventually tracked back to the improperly torqued bolts on the suspension cradle assembled through July 2012 by a supplier located not too far from the Malibu's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Since an official NHTSA recall notice has not been issued yet, it isn't clear whether or not Detroit-built Malibus were the only ones affected (the 2013 Malibu is also built at GM's Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, Kansas). Dealers will fix the problem by inspecting vehicles for proper torque specs, retightening if not within specs and, in some cases, perform a rear-wheel alignment.
