This Landau was built in Canada and has had 2 previous owners. The 1st ordered it new with the only options as follows; power windows, windscreen antenna, split cloth notch back seat. He drove it until 2003 and 63 900 miles. The 2nd owner drove it on occasion until 2012 and 67 268 miles. Car now has 70 800 miles original. I have replaced all brakes, exhaust, front wheel bearings, suspension (including heavy duty coils with 2" lift) and coil over shocks in front with adjustable rear air shocks. Car has brand new rubber all four corners 275/60R15 mounted on vintage 1976 corvette slots. Exterior paint is original never painted never repaired. Car was always garaged. Minor surface rust associated to stone chips and minor rust below rear window trim. Entire car was sprayed with Krown rust inhibitor last fall. Interior is mint and I mean mint with zero flaws. The rear seat was never sat in until my kids. Car drives great with expected oil seeps from 38 year old gaskets. Very dependable and would drive it cross country tomorrow. Original windscreen is cracked. Next on the list was to do were oil seeps. New door pins and bushings on order for 1/4 mile long front doors which I will include with car if I don't get the chance to install. I have original manuals, mud flaps, suspension, wheels, tires, hub caps and steering wheel. Also have original dealer installed cassette player with anti-theft quick release. Spare tire original in trunk and never removed? I have all paper work including transfer from original owner.


Car blows small puff of blue smoke on start up due to original valve seals needing replacement. I also have new valve gaskets to throw in.

I think you would be hard pressed to find another in this strong original unmolested ORIGINAL condition.

Reserve is fair market value based on comparables sold in last 12 months.

Fly into Winnipeg MB and drive it home or will help with loading with shipper of your choice.

Thanks for looking.....

Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.

GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles

Fri, 04 Jan 2013

As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
Scroll down for the full list of GM's million 30+ mpg cars as well as an informative press release.

UAW to vote on strike at Kentucky Corvette plant

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

The current wait time for a new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is well, not short. With word of a strike at the Bowling Green, KY factory responsible for seventh-generation sports car, though, that wait time could end up growing substantially.
Now, a strike is still a ways off. UAW Local 2164, which represents the 800 workers responsible for screwing the Corvette together, is set to vote on authorizing a strike today, but even if the employees give the action a go, it's far from a sure thing. According to The Tennessean, both regional and national union officials would need to put their stamp of approval on strike action.
"The membership has to vote to strike, but it's just a step in the process," said Gary Casteel, the UAW's Region 8 director and one of the people that would need to authorize a strike action. Casteel told The Tennessean, "It's purely a local situation, though. They are having some issues with the local management."
