Selling 1954 Corvette on 2040-cars
Stratford, Wisconsin, United States
Attention seekers…..look no further! We get a little tingly when we lay our hands on a first generation Vette, and this one gave us a few chills. The history on this particular car is short and sweet – this car rolled off the factory line straight onto the lot of a car dealership in Michigan - where the owner of the dealership proudly handed the car over to his wife who drove this beauty 82,600 miles. The car was snapped up by the Menards family and remained (and pristinely stored) in their collection for years, until now. This car was preserved perfectly, and is highly original with only 1 exterior repaint. The original (numbers correct) Blue Flame 6 cylinder engine purrs like a kitten and is backed by a smooth shifting Powerglide transmission. The inside boasts an impeccable red interior that shows no signs of wear, cracks or rips. The canvas top is in excellent condition with side curtains in-tact. Other features include original style wide white wall tires, full spare tire in trunk, original working radio, working gauges and beautiful glass and chrome throughout. Classic lines and pure American muscle– this is a rare find!seven one five 6 8 7 four five two two

GM profits threatened by glut of pickups
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Automotive News reports that General Motors may slash production or ramp up discounts in order to deal with an oversupply of pickup trucks. GM currently has more than double the standard supply of pickups, and the vehicles are threatening to dampen the automaker's profits for 2013. Typically, automakers try to sustain a 60- to 75-day supply of vehicles, but GM is currently loaded with a 139-day supply, as of last month. At the end of November, the automaker was sitting on 245,853 units.
The manufacturer says that it will adjust production accordingly before laying any incentives on the profitable pickups. Even so, there's some concern that the inventory swell could hurt the roll-out of the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. GM actually began slowly stepping back production in August, but it's clear the company will take further action as it heads toward the end of the year and into the next. Analysts predict the automaker could reduce pickup manufacturing by nearly half in the first quarter of 2013.
That still may not be enough to keep GM from laying extra cash on the Silverado and GMC Sierra. While the company's incentive spending was down in November compared to the same month in 2011, both the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 saw double-digit percentage increases in sales last month while the Silverado and Sierra numbers slid compared to a year prior. Incentive spending could help move more trucks and add some balance to the GM inventory surge.
GM already raising prices on 2014 Silverado and Sierra pickups
Mon, 14 Oct 2013General Motors must be pretty pleased with sales of its two newest pickups, the GMC Sierra and Chevrolet Silverado, as it's announced price hikes for both models, as part of a planned price tweak.
Prices will be bumped by as much as $1,500, although weirdly, they'll be offset by as much as $1,500 in cash-back offers through the end of October. Fox Business reports that GM spokesman Jim Cain said of the price hike, "With the sell down of the '13 models nearly complete, this price adjustment was planned and is a normal part of business."
The move, as Fox is quick to point out, is an interesting one, as sales of the twin pickups struggled last month relative to the Ford F-Series, while both of GM's crosstown competitors have been aggressively undercutting Silverado and Sierra prices. The F-150 starts at $24,070 and the Ram 1500 comes in at $23,600, not counting any cash on the hood. A base Silverado, meanwhile, retails at $25,575.
