Up for your consideration is my 24 Hours of Lemans Commemorative Edition 2004 Corvette Z06. This particular car is build number 1266 of 2025. The '04 Commemorative Edition Z06 is arguably the most desirable C5 model and features a lightweight carbon fiber hood and is painted a gorgeous color, Lemans Blue. Only 2025 were built and 1700 were available stateside as the remaining number were destined for the european market. This model was also tested on the famed Nurburgring race track where it completed the course in under 8 minutes putting it in the upper class of super cars!
I searched long and hard to find a car of this pedigree. I purchased the car from the 69 year old original owner. It has been garaged kept it's entire life and has never been left outside over night. I have a complete and highly documented file on this car and I am willing to say it may be most documented Z06 currently available anywhere in the world! Documentation includes all service records since new, pre-delivery inspection from new, factory window sticker and build sheet, clean CarFax and much more. The car is washed every week and waxed every other weekend. I dry it with blown air and use silicone spray to treat the weather stripping. The wheels are washed inside and out. The car looks so nice that I am constantly asked if it is new or what year it is? You could eat off the engine and the underside....not that you would want to. The car has NEVER had any food or drinks in it and absolutely no smoke. The car has never been to redline and the rear tires have NEVER been spun...REALLY!
Look at the pictures, look at the documents, ask questions, come take a look at the car or send your mechanic to view it. I can assure you that you will NOT find a nicer '04 CE Z16. I am extremely picky and all of my cars are always better than described. I have received emails from past buyers that have told me that my cars are everything I have said they were and more. If you decide to buy this car you will not be disappointed as it is as nice as they come!
This car has some very nice aesthetic and reversible touches to enhance an already spectacular Z06. They include "rare" forged SSR GT-2H 18" wheels. 18" X 9.5" Front and 18" X 10.5" Rear with brand new Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta's running 265/35-18 in front and 295/35-18 in the rear. All four wheels have custom 24 HR LeMans center caps color matched to the car along with custom lug nuts just for these wheels. It also features GM Durastop drilled brake rotors with semi-metallic high performance pads on all four corners. Other tasteful additions include clear DRL's and clear diamond cut rear side marker lights. The wheels and lighting match the stripes beautifully and really make the car pop! But wait....there's more! It also has had the steering column lock bypass and CAGS eliminator to rid of the dreaded locked column and 1-4 shift. For other performance enhancements I have installed a C6 Z06 shifter with custom one off "Jake" shift knob, trunk partition panel, and a "top of the line" CAI...a Callaway Honker. It also has a custom lighted exhaust enhancer plate and custom matched gas and dead pedals to compliment the factory pedals. The car has also been lowered 1" on the factory bolts along with a fresh 4 wheel alignment. The transmission and rear differential were recently service with fresh fluid and the oil has been changed every 3000 miles or less using only Mobil 1 and GM Duraguard "Gold" oil filters. All services of course, have been documented with product, date and mileage! There is also a shorty antennae for better looks and a factory set of european tailights....WOW!
Besides all of this the car came from the factory with every possible option available including the front license plate frame and BSM (Body Side Moulding) All of the enhancements could easily be reversed in a few hours and ALL of the "stock" parts, including the factory polished wheels and Goodyear tires come with the car! What are you waiting for? Don't miss this one!
As always, look at my feedback, ask me any questions, look at all the others....closely. Please only bid if you have the funds to complete the transaction. If you are looking for a 20K Z06 than move along as this is NOT that car. This auction is not a game. If you want to play games do so with someone else. Good Luck and God Bless America.

Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why
Sun, 27 Jan 2013Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.
2014 Chevy Silverado priced from *$24,585, V8 gets better economy than Ford EcoBoost V6
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Chevrolet has thrown down the next hand in the pickup truck poker wars and revealed at least a couple of potential aces - depending on which numbers matter most to you. The 2014 2014 Silverado 1500 with its 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 gets 335 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, is mated to a six-speed automatic, can tow 11,500 pounds with the optional Max Trailer Package and costs the same as the outgoing Silverado, $24,585 (*including $995 destination fee). Chevy says the Silverado also stands atop the fuel economy charts when comparing any competitor with a V8 engine - and some competitors with V6 engines. The two-wheel drive model returns 16 miles per gallon city, 23 mpg highway, 19 mpg combined in two-wheel drive guise and 16 mpg city, 22 mpg highway and 18 mpg combined as a four-wheel drive.
For context around those numbers, the most fuel efficient V8-powered 2013 Ford F-150 pickups lose about two mpg in every metric compared to the Silverado, the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost returning 16 city, 18 highway and 22 combined in two-wheel drive. However, that EcoBoost does have 365 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque. You can get a Ram 1500 with a 3.6-liter V6 that gets 25 mpg highway, but it has 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque. The 2013 Ram with the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and its 395 hp and 407 lb-ft drops one mpg in every category to the Silverado. Its tow rating is 200 pounds beyond its nearest competitor, the F-150 with the Max Trailer Tow Package.
Elsewhere, the new Silverado gets a quieter cab with a redesigned interior, a new bed with improved load-management possibilities, disc brakes all around, tweaked steering and suspension, along with free standard scheduled maintenance for two years or 24,000 miles.
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.
