Please no emails, calls only (250) 308-7538. I purchased this car in the Washington desert outside of Yakima. It was original paint and exceptionally straight. I purchased it to make a white Choo Choo because I always wanted a white one and could never find one good enough. So $25000 later here it is. I have owned 4 Choo Choo El Caminos and know these cars well. I never liked the cheap hood scoops so I put a steel cowl hood on this one. The motor was great but I had a 50000 mile Cutlass with a 305 that I sacrificed just to have the best. I never went to a 350 because I have a heavy foot and not much self control. It is all stock with the exception of the air cleaner that fits in the cowl hood. It has all new shocks and springs purchased new and are SS Monte.I had it in the body shop for a year. They stripped it to bare metal, removed the doors and front end and took out the windows. All the rubbers are new plus the window felts. The old windshield was replaced with a new one only because I thought it would be nice. All the exhaust is new plus I put every thing new on the engine when we changed it . Also all new seals and gaskets in the tranny. all the brakes including drums, rotors and calipers are also new. This car is really probably better than new. I also put in am am fm cd player with with mp3 plug. This should be a steal for somebody at $12500 US. Please don't waste my time if you are not serious because I feel bad enoughgiving this thing away. PS: Also, the wheels are 18" Irocs with Firestone Firehawks. Car drives better than new. Air is ice cold. Exhaust sounds great, most people think it is a big block or a hyped up 350. It really sounds awesome. |

2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 [w/videos]
Wed, Jan 7 2015I think I was supposed to be back hours ago. Driving northwest on State Road 190 with a final destination deep in the heart of the Death Valley National Park, it occurs to me that I might have agreed to return after an hour or so, instead of the four I'll end up stealing, solo, in the new Z06. Somewhere in the combination of mountain vistas, arching, speed-hungry desert roads, and the sound of this titanic engine on a constant run up the rev ladder, I forgot everything I'd promised back at home base. The generous, civilized part of me worries for a moment that absconding with the new-best Corvette might have left one of my fellow journalists without a car. But the selfish part of me – the part largely in control of the rocket-launcher of a throttle under my right foot – says "screw it." I spent two days with the 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06, a monster of a sports car that will soon be dominating track days everywhere, and I never once was inclined to share it. Hurtling through the shattered stillness of the desert and pulling big Gs at Spring Mountain circuit, I never felt overly disposed to give up my seat. This Corvette, more than any I've yet driven, was deep enough to hold my attention; for two days, for two years, probably. With this Z06, the Corvette steps over the amazing-for-the-price category, and solidly into the best-cars-in-the-world zone. There are peripheral elements that remind me of its blue collar, Bowtie heritage, sure, but there's more that simply begs me to carry on driving... faster. Most casual car observers will be able to pick the 2015 Z06 out from its less aggressive Stingray brothers. Subtler hints include a new, more open grille, larger extractor on the taller hood and rather discreet badges on the flanks of the car. More outrageous is the finned spoiler on the rear trunk lid, and the widebody look offered from flared fenders – an extra 1.57 inches (40 millimeters) at their beefiest point. Even driving around performance-car-laden Pahrump, NV – loaded thanks to the very active community at the Spring Mountain racing resort – members of the local populace were turning heads, waving and generally noting the Z06 with approval when I drove through town. In Torch Red over black painted aluminum wheels, staggered at 19-inches in front and 20 at the back, the amped-up Z06 hits a new level of road presence for the C7.
MotorWeek Retro Review revisits 1984 Corvette
Thu, Oct 1 2015MotorWeek's Retro Reviews are always a great glimpse into the cars of yesteryear. However, the newly uploaded look back at the 1984 Chevrolet Corvette is an absolute treasure trove for any auto history buff. This is a full episode of the show from the '80s, and it's dedicated to all of the details about the newest 'Vette to hit the market at the time. Beyond just the usual drive and an in-depth walk around, one of the major highlights here is a brief look at some on the concepts that eventually resulted in the fourth-generation Corvette of 1984. The C4's shape harkens back to sketches from 1978, and there even shots of early clay models that led the way for the design. MotorWeek also takes a tour through the Bowling Green, KY, factory for a detailed inspection of the entire production process. John Davis repeatedly calls the Corvette "the plastic fantastic" during the episode, and he can't find too much negative to say about being behind the wheel of the then-new coupe. See how it stands up to your own memories in the clip above.
