Here we have a 1975 Corvette Stingray w/TTops. This car has been recently restored by a professional, Michigan registered repair facility . The paint is crystal red candy, which is on the 2013 Corvette. It is a 3 stage candy paint and is absolutely beautiful. Only high quality materials and paint were used on this car. The body is in excellent shape, no cracks, scratches, chips etc. The under carriage has been completely undercoated for future protection. All the glass (windows) is in great shape, no cracks, chips, gouges etc. The black interior of this corvette is in decent shape. Seats, carpet, console, dash are in good shape. The motor is a carburetted 5.7 liter (350). It has a edelbrock carburettor, aluminium intake. Has accel coil in distributer w/8.8 Accell plug wires. Has aluminium edelbrock air cleaner and valve covers. Has headers and duel exhaust with flow master mufflers. Motor originally was equipped with A/C, but pump has been removed, probably to increase horsepower. The odometer has 88,799 miles. This car has chrome crager wheels that are in decent shape. There is some peeling and small corrosion spots but they still look good and shine well. The front tires are Radial GT HP 4000 P 245/60 R15 and rears are P275/60 R15 and tires are have 60% Good tread. Lots of miles left on them. The stereo is a Panasonic CQ-C11010 50 Wattx4 CD player. Car has factory tachometer and a 8000 RPM Sunpro tack attached to steering column. Transmission is an Automatic and shifts good and smoothly. Shifter on floor (console), all chrome, emblems, trim and T Tops are present and in good shape (original). Imperfections on this car are minimal. The headlights are up all the time. I haven't had a professional mechanic look at them but I heard it could be a couple seals that are less than $20.00. The interior has some imperfections, scratches on headliner . Some cracks in rear panels (Behind Seats). The heater blower switch is bad, heater blower motor works fine (has been tested) the switch is bad. The driver side window goes down fine, when going up it needs guided by hand. Again I haven't had a professional look at it. It does go all the way down and 3/4 of the way up without assistance. This car is in excellent mechanical condition (Other than issues listed). The brakes are like new, pads, rotors, callipers etc. The shocks are good the rear has air shocks on it. The front and rear bumpers have been smoothed out. No gaps or waves that most Corvette bumpers have. Extra time and money were invested in this cars body work and paint work to get it to look as beautiful as it does. The pictures of this car do it no justice, the colour is very pretty, and the shine is as good fi not better than any Corvette around. It has chrome Hot Rod style mirrors on both driver and passenger side. (They look good) This whole car was water sanded and buffed to a lustre that will even stand out at car shows. All lights, blinkers, power windows, etc. works fine. As far as drivability we bought this Corvette in Ohio and drove it straight home to Michigan approximately 2 1/2 hours and had no problems. It was very smooth riding for a Corvette. Other than the drive home I haven't put a lot of miles on it. We have too much time and money in this car to be driving it around and have something happen to it. SO after the restoration we have stored it inside and covered with a car cover.(which comes with the car to the winning bidder) We have access to financing as low as 5.99%, the average loan value is approximately $15,000 and the good loan value is approximately $24,000. If your the winning bidder a $1,000.00 non-refundable deposit within 48 hours is expected. We have 100% positive feedback, for a good reason, because I am honest with the condition of all items I sell. Do not bid if you don't have access to the money or financing!!! We are not giving this car away, the reserve is set at a fair price. The restoration of this cars body would cost a minimum of $10,000 and that's on the low side considering its a 3 stage candy paint, with extensive priming and blocking and all that goes with the show quality paint work. This car looks like its doing 100mph sitting still!! Good Luck bidding Guys and Gals!! If you have any questions regarding the vehicle other than the reserve feel free to call Scott at 517-960-9363. We are not telling the reserve so bid according to what you plan on paying.

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]
Mon, 27 May 2013If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
"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.
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.
