This is a real Teddy Bear on the road You'll absolutely love the way she rides!! If you are in the market for a good convertible but your bank account or wife won't allow you the expense of $40+K of a big block SS then this may be the car for you! Lets get this out of the way first, So we don't waste your time, This car looks awesome in pictures and even in person from as close as 5 foot away, BUT If you want a show car this car WILL have to be repainted. This car has been frame off restored and everywhere you look its very clean and nice!! The paint is cracked about in a few different areas. (I took pics of the two worst spots) A good paint guy could probably spot around on her but if was mine to keep I'd have it repainted all over Or just simply ride it and enjoy it like it is. This car has had just about every piece you can think of replaced new or restored to new condition. It offers one of the straightest, most solid rust free ALL original sheet metal bodies I have ever seen! Everything fits and lines up great!! The floors, trunk etc appear to be all original with NO signs of rust or rust repair!! This car is nicely detailed throughout and is very clean top to bottom! Beautiful color combo of azure bronze on bronze. This is probably one of the finest riding and driving classic cars I've had in a while. This car hits the road smooth and tight and has no known mechanical problems. ALL the chrome, stainless, emblems, bezels, interior, convertible top, rubbers, seals, etc, show excellent and was all replaced new at time of restoration!!! We were told this car is matching numbers 283, I couldn't find a # on the motor to correspond with the vin on the car but all of the date codes line up. We were also told the motor trans and rear has been completely gone through during the time of restoration approx 5 years ago or so and has had less than 20,000 miles put on it. It starts with the bump of the key and purs like a kitten. the power glide trans shifts smoothly and the rear end is excellent with a good highway gear approx 2:73. You can lay the top back on this one load up the wife kids or grand kids and cruise anywhere!!! It is equipped with power steering and handles amazing!! Headlights hi low beam, wipers, signals, brake lights,speedometer, horn all work properly! The reverse lights are all I have found that does not work. The car has also had an aftermarket am/fm/cd mounted under the dash that works great! The factory radio is in the trunk and can be mounted back in the dash.

Tarantino's stolen Chevy Malibu from Pulp Fiction recovered after 19 years [w/video]
Mon, 29 Apr 2013Quentin Tarantino fans will likely remember Vincent Vega's cherry 1964 Chevrolet Malibu Convertible in Pulp Fiction. In a movie drenched in automotive references, the Malibu is very nearly a character in and of itself, and it serves as the subject of Vega's soliloquy about the kind of man who vandalizes another's automobile. It also happened to be Tarantino's personal car when the film was shot, and was apparently stolen shortly after production wrapped. Now police have located the car some 19 years later.
As it turns out, the thieves cloned the vehicle identification number from another '64 Malibu and had the car registered under the new digits. It was then sold to an unsuspecting buyer. Police happened upon the duplicate VINs while investigating another potential theft. Right now, it's unclear whether Tarantino has taken possession of the Chevrolet, if it has remained in the possession of the fraud victim, or whether it's caught somewhere in the gears of justice. Either way, you can catch Vega's memorable thoughts on the car keying in the Pulp Fiction clip below. But consider yourself warned: the video contains explicit language as Not Safe For Work as it comes.
Chevy might've pulled out of NASCAR if it weren't for new Gen 6 car
Wed, 20 Feb 2013We've been on the fence with NASCAR for some time now. On one hand, it's some of the closest racing anywhere in motorsports, with actual passing and door-handle-to-door-handle action as a matter of course. But on the other, it's become template racing - a personality-driven sport more about the drivers than any sort of loyalty to a particular automaker. The Car Of Tomorrow format really rammed that message home, with a racecar's identity coming down to little more than headlamp stickers slapped on the nose. That's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but we've wondered for some time what's in it for the automakers, who pay big money to stay in a series that has had little increasingly little do with street car sales, let alone innovation.
Apparently General Motors was beginning to wonder the same thing. In a new ESPN report, Rick Hendrick, team owner of Hendrick Motorsports, suggests that GM would have seriously considered leaving NASCAR if it wasn't for the move away from the COT to the new Gen 6 racer. According to Hendrick, GM North America boss Mark Reuss spearheaded the charge away from the 2007 COT and toward a racecar with clearer automaker ties - cars like the new Chevrolet SS racer shown above. Learn more about the fight for a closer-to-production look in the ESPN story at the link.
Now, if we could just get more rear-wheel drive V8 coupes into showrooms....
New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette
Mon, 04 Feb 2013If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.
