1998 Chevy Corvette convertible I can and will e-mail more pics upon request

The first picture is how the car looked before IPS got a hold of it. I added a couple pics they sent me as Livernois was building the engine. And one picture of what IPS did on their joy ride when they were suppose to be breaking in the engine.

Totaled - not by me, I took it to IPS Motorsports in Columbus, Ohio. They dropped in a brand new LS3 fully built (details below) and a new clutch. They were putting break in miles on it before dyno tune and the guy was hot rodding it joy ride and threw it into a brick mailbox enclosure. There insurance was going to repair the car b/c of all modifications that was done it was worth a considerable amount. I did not want the car back, I wanted an untotaled car like what I had. They weren't going to do that. My attorney got the car totaled at a lesser value so I could get more out of it (since I got nothing out of IPS). So here it is forsale. The price of reserve is less than what the engine has in it. Basically buying a full built complete brand new engine and getting a car with it for less than what the engine alone is worth.

Engine -

LS3 Darton Sleeved Block
Manley Forged Crankshaft
Diamond Forged Pistons
Total Seal Steel Rings
Trend Heavy Wall Wrist Pins
Clevite Coated Bearings
ARP Main Studs

Sleeved
Deck Plate Honed
Align Honed
Main and Rod Clearances Set
Stroker Clearance on Block
Radius/Prep Block
Balance Crankshaft
Prep Block Oil Passages
Prep Crankshaft Oil Holes
Fully Assembled

This car also has custom paint on hood and decklid (no good), The hood is good still, Ghost C5 emblem on it. The front bumper shaved emblem and license filler is molded in. Along with functional z06 screens in front bumper and function rear z06 screens, Ace Slick Z07 wheels, 2" adapter on rears for L5 Flares, slotted and cross drilled zink coated rotors all 4 corners, and blacked out front turn signals. ACI front ground effect with a ONE OF A KIND ACI SAVER / SPLITTER, it is made out of stainless steel. Car is lowered 1.5". 19x11 rear (one needs replaced) 18x9.5 front

As the car sits... This would make a great start to a Factory 5 five Racing GTM car. All front end suspension is good. Most of body is good besides Doors needing some repair along with convertible lid cover and the passenger L5 quarter and rear bumper. Decklid and driver quarter need replaced. The car can't be started. The lower bell housing along with full exhaust (minus headers), drive line cover and anti sway bar IPS still has. Don't ask me how they can get away with that but they did.

This car was an all out show car for me. I only took it on nice days to work and took it to shows. I did not race the car. I don't know what all would take to rebuild it. It is more work than it's worth to me. That is why I am selling it as a car but you buy the engine and get the car with it. If someone were to buy the car and part it out, I don't doubt that they could get double the price they buy it for. I'm not in for parting a car though, it takes forever and I just want it gone. If there are any questions please e-mail me thru ebay. I reserve the right to sell locally. And buyer handles all shipping/towing. Thank you.

C7 Corvette turbo with 1,000 horsepower promised from Hennessey

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

If you can't wait for the next-generation Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Hennessey says they will have you covered. The Texas-based company has announced it will offer a spate of upgrades for the 2014 Corvette ranging from a range of bolt-on options all the way up to a 1,000-horsepower, twin-turbo system. Buyers can start with a cold air intake, cat-back exhaust or stainless steel long-tube headers, but Hennessey says it will also offer up three stages of forced induction mayhem should those bits and baubles not provide enough thrust.
Those choices start with a supercharger system good for up to 700 hp, though Hennessey will gladly ditch the blower in favor of two turbos. Doing so will spin the crank to the tune of 800 horsepower all the way up to a certifiably ludicrous 1,000 ponies. There's no word on how much these tricks will cost you - or when they will be available, as we're guessing they haven't gotten their hands on the car yet - but you can head over to the Hennessey site to drop them a line if you're curious.

Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial

Sat, 16 Mar 2013

The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
