Chevrolet 1960 Corvette Roadster (scta Custom Hot Rat Rod) on 2040-cars
Saint Louis, Missouri, United States
1960 Corvette 283 cu. in. 230 hp. Borg Warner 4 spd. with correct linkage and two tops. This car has been owned by the same lady for the past 49 years. It under went a frame off restoration in the late 90's. The 283 engine was rebuilt, though not the original, it is a 519 casting dated Dec. 1959. It also received a new clutch, new gas tank and stainless steel exhaust system. The complete chassis was restored using new or rebuilt parts. A set of 5 BF Goodrich bias ply 670/15 tires on original wheels were installed. The interior is completely new including seat skins, carpets, door panels, window seals and dash pad. The hard top received new side windows, headliner and rubber seals. The white convertible top was replaced and the frame rebuilt but has since received a tear caused by being pinched in the top frame. The Wonderbar radio does not work. All of the original gauges work properly, the tach is a little bouncy. The engine now has a new Edelbrock 500 cfm carburetor but the WCFB carb goes with the car. The car has only been driven about 690 miles in the past 15 years. The Edelbrock was more forgiving over long periods of non use. The Roman Red lacquer paint, also 15 plus years old, shines beautifully but has a few chips and shows some paint crazing and shrinkage. All chrome was re-plated. This car shows very well and could be driven with pride for many more years as is. It runs, drives and shifts great and is extremely tight and rattle free.

GM reports third straight sales drop in China in 2020
Wed, Jan 6 2021BEIJING — General Motors' vehicle sales in China fell 6.2% in 2020, as the U.S. automaker suffered a prolonged slowdown in the world's biggest auto market. GM, China's second biggest foreign automaker, delivered 2.9 million vehicles in the country last year, the company said on Wednesday, for a third straight decline in annual sales. But sales have been recovering in the second half of last year, up 12% between July and September and 14% in the final three months. GM has a Shanghai-based joint venture with SAIC Motor, in which the Buick, Chevrolet and Cadillac vehicle brands are made. It also has another Liuzhou-based venture, with SAIC and Guangxi Automobile Group, in which they make no-frills minivans and have started to make higher-end cars. Sales of its Buick brand grew 4% on the year and Wuling rose 9%, the statement said. Luxury brand Cadillac's sales increased 8%. Sales of GM's more affordable Baojun brand dropped 33% last year, while sales of its mass-market Chevrolet tumbled 30%. GM's delivery of 2.9 million vehicles in China follows 3.09 million vehicles in 2019, 3.65 million vehicles in 2018, and 4.04 million in 2017, for a three-year decrease of 28%.

Chevy: The Big Game
Mon, Feb 2 2015Chevrolet took an early lead for the 2015 Super Bowl advertising crown with its spot for the all-new, 4G LTE-capable Colorado pickup in a spot that simulated a problem with your TV. The stark, simple ad then states that if you're lucky enough to have an Internet-capable vehicle, like the new Colorado, you'd at least be able to stream the game. A clever, chuckle-inducing spot if there was one. Check out our full write up of the new, 2015 Colorado. Marketing/Advertising Chevrolet Truck Super Bowl Commercials Videos 2015 super bowl ad
