1963 Corvette Stingray Convertible with soft and hardtop. This is the first time this car has been offered to the public. The last time this vehicle was licensed was in 1993 in Florida. Watch the video below of engine running and scroll down to see 250 photos documenting the vehicle condition. Please note that I am not a car dealer. This vehicle is from my private collection. I do not claim to be a Corvette expert. I obtained this car that came out of an estate located in Miami Beach, FL. The undercarriage is in excellent condition. Zero accidents nor ever any frame damage. Odometer reads 74,078 miles. Appears to have a 327/340HP motor in it (casting number 3783870). I cannot locate serial numbers on the front of the block, unless they are located somewhere I am not aware of. The car has a four speed Muncie transmission with a tight close ratio shifter (I did not try to locate any numbers on the trans). The original color appears to be red from the code on the body plate although I cannot locate any red paint anywhere on the car. The car runs and shifts excellent. The clock and Am/FM radio works. I have a copy of the original title showing the vehicle was transferred to the last owner in 1987. The plates on the rear shows vehicle registration expiration in 1993. Car runs excellent and will be an excellent driver with some minor repairs. I do not have time as I have too many projects. Overall this is a very nice original car that is extremely clean for being 52 years old. Try and find another in this condition for the price. Nice solid investment as Corvette values continue to rise. Overall the cars needs minor repairs to be a very nice driver:1) Needs brake lines (complete brake line kit from "Inline Tube" goes with the car). I have no time to install. Car will need to be towed.2) Spare tire is missing. The jack and wrench are intact.3) Soft top and rear plastic window needs cleaning4) Drivers seat has a minor tear on seam5) The paint is in driver quality with scratches and paint bubbling. The body is excellent overall. I cannot locate any prior accident repairs.6) Carpet is a faded, but in good driver condition7) The back glass in the hardtop has a crack in it8) The passenger door glass needs to be re installed in the track. Window goes up but tilts on the way down9) Left headlight does not go up with switch, appears to need grease New parts:1) Master cylinder installed2) Complete "Inline Tube" complete brake line kit comes with the vehicle3) Brand new tires are on the car with zero miles on them. The have been balanced with new stems4) Recent engine tune up completed by a GM certified mechanic5) New rubber fuel lines replaced, new fuel filter and gas tank flushed with fresh fuel6) New battery installed

2013 Chevy COPO Camaro announced with two new engines and manual option

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Chevrolet is following up the 2012 COPO Camaro with another limited run of the drag-strip-ready production car for 2013. Ditching the superchargers, the 2013 COPO Camaro can only be equipped with one of three naturally aspirated V8 engines, and other new features include the option of a manual transmission, new front springs, some minor styling changes and a lower starting price of $86,000. All cars are designed to abide by the rules of the NHRA's Stock Eliminator or Super Stock classifications, depending on in which series buyers wish to enter their Chevrolet Camaro.
Returning for 2013 is the 427-cubic-inch V8 producing 425 horsepower, but the new engines include a 325-hp 350-CID V8 and a 375-hp 396-CID V8. Buyers can select to purchase all three engines, and each will be matched with the sequence number of that car; the track-only COPO cars will not have vehicle identification numbers and can't be registered for street use.
Chevrolet is also offering unique enthusiast-specific options such as a COPO Build Book and the opportunity for owners to help assemble their car's engine at the Chevrolet Performance Build Center in Wixom, MI.

Watch this creative way to pull a truck's engine

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

Living 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.

2014 Chevrolet Impala [w/video]

Can A Fleet Queen Become a Fullsize King?
On paper, the Chevrolet Impala is a pretty strong seller, posting annual sales that have hovered right around 170,000 units for the last two years, but it only takes one trip to practically any rental car agency to discover where the majority of those sales have come from. In fact, General Motors told Autoblog that a full 70 percent of Impala sales last year went to fleet companies for things like rental cars and government vehicles. Logic tells us that this is neither good for resale values nor name equity, so Chevrolet is getting ready to roll out an all-new Impala with improved comfort, styling and technology, hoping to turn the tables on its retail-to-fleet ratio.
Chevrolet's sedans have come on quite strong in the last few months with the introduction of the Cruze diesel and the SS sedan, but while these will likely be low-volume sellers, there's more pressure for the new Impala to perform well as GM looks to slash fleet sales and compete with the wide variety of full-size sub-luxury sedans. Riding on a platform shared with the Buick LaCrosse and Cadillac XTS, the 2014 Impala will compete against the Hyundai Azera, Ford Taurus and Toyota Avalon on the more traditional side, while also looking to take a bite out of somewhat sportier models like the Chrysler 300/Dodge Charger twins and the Nissan Maxima. We headed to sunny San Diego to see if this totally new Impala can stand on its own without the assistance of fleet companies and rental agencies. [w/video
