1988 Chevrolet Corvette Base Hatchback 2-door 5.7l Auto on 2040-cars
Littlestown, Pennsylvania, United States
Up for sale is my 1988 Corvette. I am selling this and my Jeep because I don't need and can't keep up with 3 vehicles.
White exterior, red/black interior, 95,xxx miles. L98 350 engine, 4 speed auto, and 2.54 rear. I get around 17-18 mpg around town, 24+ highway. Being as this is a 26 year old vehicle, it is by no means a show car. I would rate it a 10 footer daily driver. I have waxed it a few times. That said, it has its imperfections. There are a few paint chips, a thin spot, and a cracked mirror. I tried to capture it in the photos. There is some primer peeking through on top of the rear bumper. Paint here is iffy due to years of someone dripping fuel on it while pulling the nozzle out. It has its share of squeaks and rattles. If you have owned a C4 before, you know all about them. Sirius radio NOT included. Wheels are the baseline 16 inch wheels only offered in 1988. 1987 and 1989 models featured a different rim. This is the only set I've ever seen that were chromed. Most are brushed aluminum. I purchased it in July 2012 with 82,xxx miles. I have regularly changed the oil with Mobil 1 Full Synthetic High Mileage. Really the only things I have done are plugs/wires/cap/rotor, oil changes, air filter, fuel filter, and belt. I always use Premium 92/93 octane gas. I have made a few long distance trips in it with no issues. Longest was an over-400-mile trip from southern PA to Alexandria Bay in upstate NY. Again, no issues(and I did it on a single tank of gas, but was buried on empty when I arrived). There are a few problems. The battery went flat over the winter because I didn't drive it for over 4 months, and now the radio wont change from FM1. Cant play the cd player, aux, or AM. Cant eject the CD in there either or set the time. It is an aftermarket radio, I believe from 1994 time frame. The trim piece in the rear cargo area that covers the privacy cover is cracked in several places. I tried to repair it best I could, its fixed but isnt going to win any awards. Like I said, little odds and ends here and there, as its 26 years old. Occasionally when you let the tank get close to empty there is a mild fuel starvation issue at W.O.T. most likely due to there being little fuel in the bottom of the tank and the gass sloshing around. I very rarely ever let the tank get that empty, I always try to keep all my vehicles over 1/2 tank(I'm a little OCD like that). Interior pieces here and there have some cracks around screws, if you are familiar with 1980's GM plastics, it should come as no surprise.The 12v outlet worked some of the time, so I installed a secondary one in the center console(which I feel is a better location anyway). The climate control display sometimes flickers, which is very common for these. Works fine though. Includes the original owners pamphlet and Corvette roof tool. I am located 10 minutes outside Gettysburg, PA. Pick up only. I can meet within a reasonable distance, within a half hour to 45 minutes from my house. No trades. Will not ship. Cash up front, no payments, no loans, I'm not a bank. $500 NON-REFUNDABLE deposit due via Paypal immediately following purchase. For sale locally, I reserve the right to pull this down if it sells locally. |

Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy teases Bolt driving range, China pursues EV subsidy cheaters
Tue, Sep 13 2016Chevy is teasing the Bolt's driving range, which it is set to reveal on Tuesday. It will certainly be able to travel more than 200 miles between charges, but the second and third digits in that value, as it stands today, are still question marks. On its Facebook page, Chevrolet is asking fans to try to guess the official range. Of course, Tesla fans have already started posting their own snide remarks in the comments. Chevy fans are certainly hoping to see the Bolt's range eclipse that of Tesla's upcoming Model 3, which the California-based automaker puts at 215 miles. See Chevy's post on Facebook to make your own guess, or check back there (or here at AutoblogGreen) for the official number once it is unveiled. Fuel cell company PowerCell Sweden says it has signed an agreement with a Chinese company to make range extenders for commercial trucks. The unnamed Chinese customer has placed an order and signed a memorandum of understanding with PowerCell Sweden, and the partners will develop methanol reformer fuel cell range extenders for electric distribution trucks. "Our unique expertise in fuel cells and reformer technology is receiving an increasing attention worldwide and we are truly pleased to get another Chinese order," says PowerCell Sweden Sales Director Andreas Boden. Read more at Green Car Congress, or from PowerCell. China is accusing major automakers of violating EV subsidy rules. After the country's Ministry of Finance penalized five companies with fines and, in one case, revocation of production license for subsidy cheats, China has since named 20 more potential violators, including Nissan, Hyundai, JAC, and a subsidiary of BYD. Of the first five companies to be punished under the investigation, Suzhou Gemsea Coach Manufacturing is having its production license revoked, while four others, including a subsidiary of Chery, are being fined for about half of the subsidies received. The scandal is bad new for China's subsidy program, which has helped spur sales of plug-in vehicles. Read more from Fortune, or at Hybrid Cars.

GM laying off more than 4,000 workers Monday morning
Sat, Feb 2 2019According to reports from Automotive News, The Detroit News, and CNN, General Motors plans to begin laying off more than 4,000 salaried workers starting Monday morning. In a statement to AN, a spokesperson for the automaker said, "We are not confirming timing. Our employees are our priority. We will communicate with them first." We've been expecting layoffs at General Motors since November, 2018. At the time, the Detroit-based automaker announced it would seek to shed 8,100 salaried employees, shut down five assembly plants in North America, and kill off several slow-selling models. One month earlier, GM offered buyout packages to 18,000 workers and said it would seek to cut its global workforce by 25 percent. A spokesperson said at the time the moves were "proactive steps to get ahead of the curve by accelerating our efforts to address overall business performance." The cost-cutting moves are expected to save GM up to $2.5 billion in 2019 and as much as $6 billion by 2020. David Kudla, CEO and chief investment strategist of Mainstay Capital Management, referred to the impending culling as "Black Monday" and told The Detroit News that the layoffs would begin around 7:30 a.m. and continue in waves throughout the coming days and weeks. GM plans to deliver on its fourth-quarter and full-year 2018 earnings report on Wednesday. President Donald Trump plans to deliver the annual State of the Union address a day earlier on Tuesday. We expect to hear plenty more from both sides over the next several days.
