This listing is for a Black 1999 2 Door Corvette Convertible C-5 Automatic 5.7L 4 Speed V8 350ci 345HP with 106,590 Miles.

The current owner's late husband who was an auto body worker who past away not long ago. His wife has decided to have me sell this car for her. No one has driven this car regularly since April of 2012 but the car has been regularly started and run and is still in great condition.

This Corvette convertible is loaded!

The previous owner removed all of the panels and professionally repainted this car back to black piece by piece in 2006. The body is in excellent condition. There is only one really notable scratch, behind the drivers side door handle, which is not a very big scratch. This car has been garage kept and still looks great. Compared to a factory black mustang with the same mileage I would say the body is in excellent overall condition, with a newer custom paint job(still the original factory color) with minor micro-scratches that when waxed are virtually unnoticeable.

The specs on the engine and transmission are that this is a 350 Cubic Inch 5.7 Liter 4 Speed with 345 Horsepower and it can be very fast, very quick. This car can go zero to 50 in about 3-4 seconds.

The 1999 Corvette Convertible was the second and last year that the fifth generation Corvette was released with retractable headlights.

This car has aftermarket wheels and a Cat Back exhaust system. The gear ratio on the rear axle is 3:15. This Corvette has a Z-51 Suspension Package and has the Bose speaker system option with a factory radio/cd player.

The tires on this car were recently installed and in new condition. PLEASE NOTE: This car does not have a spare tire or emergency jack.

This two owner Corvette has never been in an accident and has been properly maintained with regular oil changes, tune-ups, tire rotations, lights, fluids, and normal vehicle maintenance upkeep.

I recently drove this Corvette so that I could help list this vehicle more accurately. The battery was dead when I got there, but we hooked a battery charger up to it and it started right up and a few hours later when I went to take pictures the car started right back up without any issues.

This Corvette drives great! The suspension and front end are tight and well aligned. The engine has great compression and an abundance of Horsepower. When you drive it, the belt tension(tensioner) pulley chirps a little bit. This may be due to the age of the bearings in the pulley getting worn out, but the Pulley doesn't squeal or squeak... it is simply a chirp sound, like maybe it could used some lubricant. Regardless, it is a minor issue for a car or it's age and otherwise the car preforms greatly.

The engine and transmission have not had any repairs or damages and are perfectly functioning with plenty of torque, ample horsepower and smooth shifting.

The interior of the car is black with leather automatic power bucket seats. The drivers side seat has 3 small tears in the leather from the normal use in the lifetime of the drivers seat, but the seat is still comfortable and functional.

The door locks and windows are also automatic powered locks and windows....

The convertible's latches work smoothly for the soft top which works properly and drops or pops quickly with ease.

Race Recap: 2013 Twelve Hours of Sebring, cakewalk up front, grindfest out back [w/spoilers]

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...

Kurt Busch to shake and bake (again) in Ricky Bobby car at Talladega

Sat, 19 Oct 2013

Kurt Busch will channel Ricky Bobby for another NASCAR race, this time driving a Wonder-sponsored Chevrolet SS, in this weekend's Camping World RV Sales 500 at the Talladega Motor Speedway. Unlike past tie-ins, though, there's actually an element of sponsorship here (the "Me" car was done when Busch was running on a team without sponsorship).
It was arranged by Flower Foods, the new owner of the Wonder brand. Wonder was part of the bankrupt Hostess company, which temporarily exited the US market 2012, and set off the Great Twinkie Shortage.
Busch has made something of a habit of channeling characters from famous racing movies, most recently running Tom Cruise's City Chevrolet livery from Days of Thunder in a Nationwide Series race earlier this year. Busch kicked off his movie-inspired antics, though, at Talladega in 2012, when he raced El Diablo's ("It's like... Spanish for like a fighting chicken") "Me" car complete with a cougar on the hood. He even went so far as to channel the lovable idiot that is Ricky Bobby during the race, dropping a few catchphrases about macchiatos and slingshots.
