I have for sale a Beautiful 25th Anniversary Customized Corvette. This stunning car is Coca-cola Red with a Bright White interior.


The front hood has a custom fit and molded Pro Stock style hood scoop with neon light inside. Side vents and lower front spoiler also has neon light installed.

The front and rear bumpers are 1982 style and fitted and molded into the body. The Eckler Turbo style spoiler in the rear is also installed and molded to the body, Really looks sharp.

The car also has front and rear Eckler ground effects installed, along with custom made side panels to hid the bare spot above the Hooker Headers.

On the front fenders I had installed and blended into the fenders Daytona louvers.

On the rear of the car I installed Eckler Bubble tail lights.

The factory T-Tops have been replaced with a Smoke Gray Acrylic one piece top.

The wheels are Craiger 17" with new BF Goodrich G-force T/A tires. The car has new brakes and calipers. New one piece Composite leaf spring and shocks all around. 
New wheel bearings all around and had the rear swing arm modified with a grease fitting so you can grease the rear bearing with ease.

The engine is original and had been rebuilt many moons ago, so i'm not sure of the actual mileage on it. The car had been in storage for about 5 years, but I have been driving it for several 
months now with no problems, and yes the Hooker sidepipes sound awesome cruising down the highway.

The interior is Bright White with Beautiful handmade Wood center dash, console and Speedometer / Tachometer, also the rear trunks have Wood inserts.

The gauges all work, The clock is new. Has automatic dimming rear view mirror. The radio is a Sony with a CD player, that was working fine until yesterday, I'll have to take a look at that. The CD works fine I think I'm not doing something right. The amp is a 600watt Jenson with 2 10" speakers in the rear. The Battery is new.

The Door panels and Seats covers are new. The carpet needs to be cleaned or replaced and the power windows are sloooow. The cars not in perfect condition, but with a little TLC it could be a real looker.

Car is being sold as is, no warranty. Full payment within 7 days. Buyer is responsible for shipping.

May 2016: FCA wins, Ford and GM stumble on weak car volumes

Wed, Jun 1 2016

The May 2016 sales numbers are in, and it looks as though FCA is getting some vindication for boldly cancelling two slow-selling car models. Meanwhile, Ford saw overall sales dip and GM's May volume took a big dive versus the same month in 2015. While Marchionne's decision to axe the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Dart has drawn criticism as being short-sighted, it's working for FCA so far. Although the Dart and 200 aren't out of production yet and no capacity has been shifted to crossover or trucks, May's numbers show that the emphasis on Jeep and Ram models makes sense right now. FCA's US sales rose 1 percent last month compared to May 2015, putting the year-to-date total at 955,186 vehicles, an increase of 6 percent compared to the same period last year. Standouts included the Jeep Renegade, Compass, and Patriot, and the Fiat 500X. Ram pickup sales were down 3 percent. And your fun fact is that Alfa Romeo sales were up precisely 10 percent, for a total of 44 4Cs sold versus 40 in the same month last year. At FoMoCo, the Ford brand took a hit to the tune of 6.4 percent from May 2015 to 2016, registering 226,190 sales last month. Lincoln showed improvement on its modest numbers, going from 9,174 to 9,807, a 6.9 percent increase. Overall, Ford was down 5.9 percent for the month to 235,997; despite the slump, year-to-date total Ford sales are up 4.2 percent to 1,112,939. Strong sellers included Escape, Expedition, F-Series, and Transit - big stuff. Most small and/or efficient models (Fiesta, Focus, Fusion, C-Max) saw sales slides. Fusion sales were also down, likely due to effects of model changeover to the freshened 2017 model. Ford has promised four new crossovers and SUVs by 2020 and if things keep trending this way the company will be able to sell them, but things could change in the next four years. GM saw the worst of it for domestic brands. Retail and fleet sales were down for each of the four divisions, with the May 2016 total dropping 18 percent to 240,450 vehicles. GM's year-to-date sales are down 5.0 percent in 2016 to 1,183,705. Both the Sierra and Silverado were down significantly, and the majority of Chevy, Buick, GMC, and Cadillac nameplates saw sales decreases, with both small cars and larger utilities included. Not even big stuff could help GM this month, it seems. We'll have more on the rest of the industry's May sales as those figures trickle in.

GM says EVs are the future — but trucks are going to take it there

Fri, Jan 11 2019

In the PowerPoint deck for the General Motors Capital Markets Day presentation, one of the more disturbing things comes early on, during GM President Mark Reuss' initial remarks, in an area where he is discussing the company's overall strength in trucks. The point being made is that GM has a truck for all and sundry. And there it is, a phrase on a slide that should send chills up the spines of those who still pine for the old Bob Seger "Like a Rock" Silverado ads: "Little bit country. Little bit rock 'n' roll." That's right. Donny and Marie. Somehow the Denis Leary snark in the F-150 ads is all the more appealing. The Capital Markets Day presentation was chock full of observations about electrification and automation (Reuss and CEO Mary Barra both noted that the corporation's vision is one of "Zero Crashes. Zero Emissions. Zero Congestion." Dan Ammann talked about the progress being made at Cruise Automation; Reuss rolled out the plan for an array of electrified vehicles, with a luxury EV and a compact SUV being the "Centroid Entries" for the modular bases of many others). But it is worth noting that there is no getting away from the power of pickups in the U.S. market, as that was the central topic in Chief Financial Officer Dhivya Suryadevara's comments, with "Truck Franchise" being flanked by "Key Financial Priorities" and "Financial Outlook." Clearly, to gloss the old phrase, the truck segment is where the money is. Suryadevra enumerated how the truck segment is significantly different than other types of light vehicles. Among her points: GM, Ford and FCA have more than 90% of market share. The truck parc has been growing and aging over the past 10 years. Customers are fiercely loyal to the segment—as in 70% of truck buyers are truck buyers. A good number of the vehicles are for commercial use (40 percent). Trucks are "less prone to. . .mobility disruption." Trucks offer high margins. Translaton: The segment is one that they're solidly positioned in. There are lots of old trucks on the road that will need to be replaced by new ones. Perhaps buyers may switch from a Sierra to a Canyon, but it will be a truck. If your livelihood depends on that type of vehicle, even if gas prices go up or the economy begins to go south, you're going to stick with it. Most of the country isn't San Francisco, so trucks will continue to be essential. And, well, they're profitable in the extreme.
