Thank you for checking out this listing. Please read the following description carefully and ask me any questions before you bid. I tried to cover everything to the best of my knowledge so if I missed on a detail please do not hesitate to ask.

I bought this car four years ago and soon after began a complete restoration. It was nearly complete and mostly in need of attention to its cosmetics. It has its original drivetrain and all the numbers match. The original data and VIN plates are in place and untouched. I have the gas tank sticker as well as the protect-o-plate and older registrations. I have a copy of the dealer (Hicks Chevrolet in Washington DC) sale invoice as well as a letter from NCRS of the selling dealer that corroborates the former.

The engine was previously rebuilt and upon inspecting the transmission and rear end, I found them to be excellent but I replaced the bearings and seals in the rear axle (3.36) housing as well as those for the transmission. The transmission and rear axle were excellent originals that had never been down, and their restoration was mostly as mentioned with a good cleaning and putting new gaskets and fluids.

The clutch assembly(refaced flywheel, new clutch disc, pressure plate, and throw out bearing) is totally new. The radiator and expansion tank are new with correct dates. I put in a rebuilt voltage regulator; of the correct date. The distributor is original, rebuilt, and has Pertronix kit in place of the points/condenser under the cap. The starter was rebuilt with a major repair kit but I cannot say if it is of a correct date to the car. There is a correct oil filter canister, correct dated alternator, rebuilt steering box as well the rebuilt steering column and a new rag joint. The engine has a correct fan and clutch. The carb is a correct rebuilt 3810 connected to a new fuel pump, hoses and tank to pump line. I put new carb lower gasket, spacer and top gasket as original. All the universal joints were replaced as well as engine and transmission correct mounts.

The car runs clean and strong and has a lot of power. Throughout the restoration I left nothing without attention for reliability and correctness.

The previously untouched gas tank was dropped and the gas tank sheet was removed and saved with other documentation. The tank is excellent and was cleaned and re-used.

The brake calipers (stainless) were cleaned and fitted with new internals; all around. The emergency brake parts are all new. I added power steering using correct and rebuilt parts for pleasurable driving. There are no leaks under the car.

The headlights, stop lights, indicators, interior, flasher and reverse lights, all function as they should. The jack and wrench are in place.

The body was taken off the frame and all exterior and interior trim, and glass, were removed. The paint was stripped down to the bare fiberglass. The surfaces previously unpainted, like the deck lid underside(still has a factory rubber stamped date), and under the door panels, were left with the original factory paint for future reference. The body is all factory original with exception to a rear quarter(passenger side) that was replaced prior to my purchase. The birdcage is great and required little localized repair and I replaced the rocker panel brackets with new units.

I ensured all correct decals and stickers are in place including those on the door jambs.

The exhaust panel has NOS bezels. I strived to use the original correct nuts and bolts everywhere unless the odd one was unavailable. The car was missing the correct stamped steel valve covers. I acquired an original pair and put them in place on the (matching numbers) engine heads.

The frame was mostly covered with surface rust. One small area near the rear axle cross member had a rust hole and that was properly repaired and is not visible. Apart from that the frame is solid and sound. It was stamped by the factory with the car's serial number(please see the pictures). The frame was blasted, primed and painted correct black. Pictures were taken to document this fact. I replaced all the body mount hardware and spacers(as original) as well as all the body mount rear brackets and captivated nuts.

The front A-arms were similarly blasted and new joints, wheel bearings, seals and bushes installed and sub assemblies reinstalled on the car with new springs, new cushions, and shocks. The rear axle and leaf spring(rebuilt original but mistakenly painted black rather than grey as original) assembly was reinstalled with new correct hardware. The rear spindles were rebuilt with new bearings and seals and the arms were fitted with new bushings and hardware.

The detailed engine and transmission were put back on the frame and new tires (5 radial white-walls-the blue you see in the pictures is removable protection to the white walls) were installed on the restored original wheels. The wheel-tire assemblies were attached in place as well as the gas tank. I put new brake lines and acquired a correct new master cylinder (has the bleed nipples).

The rear crossmember was blasted and repainted the correct semi gloss frame paint and reinstalled with the rear arms rebuilt with new hardware.

A new correct exhaust system was installed using new hangers and bracket (at transmission). It has a new exhaust heat valve on the manifold.

The car was sprayed a thin layer of gel coat and then primed and painted with a two stage paint process. The paint color was matched to the factory original paint on the car. The doors, hood, deck lid, exhaust valence, and hardtop were painted off the car.

The body was dropped back on the frame with all the suspension and drivetrain on. The cleaned and painted bumper brackets, excellent grill, and the bumpers, were all put back on. The bumpers were not re-chromed, as they did not need it, although they have a slight patina that I elected to keep.

I put in a new battery box and battery shield as well as new underbody shields with new rubber in place of the tired originals. The body received all new rubber and the door and window mechanisms were cleaned and serviced for smooth operation. The door hinges were restored with new brass sleeves.

I installed new spark plugs and wires and acquired a correct 202 coil that was missing. All the shielding is in place and I did not re-chrome these; to maintain some originality. New wiring harness under the hood as well as a rear harness were installed. It has correctly cadmium re-plated female hood locks. The wiper motor and washer are excellent with new seals. Similarly the headlight motors are excellent.

The interior received new seat covers from AL-Knoch as well as carpeting, reproduction door panels were kept as they were good. The seat frames were restored and cleaned and the seat rails blasted, repainted and reconditioned. Has new visors. All the correct glass went back on as well as the windshield stainless that was professionally polished. The door lock mechanisms were cleaned and function flawlessly.

The dash pads are correct and excellent as well as the glove box door, new clock and restored dash cluster. In the pictures you may notice the car has the tach with a wrong red-yellow line-that will be corrected in the duration of the listing.

The shifter was rebuilt and a new rubber dust shield was installed. I had a new soft top (al-Knoch) installed; black, per the gas tank sticker, although white would have looked better but I wanted the car to be as close as possible to the way it left the factory. The soft top frame got new rubber. The inside rear view mirror is correct as well as the rear view outside mirror. I put in a new antenna and a lead in cable. All the ground cables are new and in place. the radio works fine with a new speaker installed. The instruments all function properly. The headlight buckets roll up and down as they should.

I acquired new seat belts that were restored with new webbing and correct buckles. They are correctly dated. I did not install these belts to prevent that fresh blue webbing from getting soiled.

The hardtop was completely dismantled and stripped to the bare fiberglass. It was gelled, then primed and finally painted with the rest of the body components. All the stainless was polished and reinstalled. The hardtop rear plexiglass is NOS acquired years ago from GM. The inner trim was painted and has a new headliner in place. New rubber was used throughout as well as new clips as original. Unfortunately the headliner has a small hole, 1/4 inch in diameter.

This is a nice car that needs nothing. Restoration was a labor of affection and cost. I did not skimp on anything on this car. Whoever becomes the new owner will be very happy with it. However, remember it is a 47 year old car, and although renewed extensively, it will need care and attention. I have described it to the best of my recollection. I am not a dealer but an enthusiast that finds more enjoyment working on, rather than driving, these cars.

There are no miles on the restoration. It is priced very reasonably considering that it was a body off and has no miles on the restoration. I am not interested in trades; mainly because I need the space.

The only flaws that I am aware of on the car are (1) a 2.5" exhaust (new) instead of a 2" diameter system. Another flaw is the (2) tank to fuel pump hardline that turned out to be defective which I replaced with a soft fuel line. I have a new hard line that goes with the car. I could not install as I do not have a lift.

You are welcome to bid, but please do so responsibly; making sure you have the funds and that you intend to see the deal through. Once the listing ends the winning bidder must contact me within 24 hours and complete the deposit process. This is a nice, honestly presented car, and will make the next owner proud and happy.

The car is in Escondido California, which is about 30 miles north of San Diego.

You may elect to inspect the car prior to bidding, and you or whoever represents you, are welcome to do so. Please email me to let me know of this step. I also reserve my right to end this listing at any time.

The buyer shall be responsible for the pick up and transport of the car from my location. I have a clear title to my name. The car and title (as well as all documentation) will be released once payment has cleared in my bank account.

Thank you and Good Luck

GM doubles miles open to its Super Cruise technology

Wed, Aug 3 2022

DETROIT — General Motors said on Wednesday owners of certain vehicles equipped with its Super Cruise assisted driving system will now be able to use it on 400,000 miles (643,740 km) of North American roads, doubling the current operating area as Tesla and other automakers race to deploy hands-free cruising technology. GM's Super Cruise system, like Tesla's Autopilot system, is a driver assistance system, and does not enable true autonomous driving. Spurred by Tesla's aggressive deployment of Autopilot, and Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk's promises of a more advanced "Full Self Driving" system, GM, Ford, Volkswagen and Mercedes-Benz are racing to deploy competing partial automation technology in major markets. At the same time, safety regulators are showing concern that drivers do not understand that Autopilot and similar systems are not designed to take over driving in every circumstance. The GM system's sensors and software allow a motorist to cruise with hands off the wheel on highways that have been mapped in detail. But the driver is expected to stay alert and ready to take over the car. GM uses technology to monitor the driver, and Super Cruise will sound alarms or slow the car to a stop if it detects that a driver is not responding. Starting later this year, GM plans to enable vehicles equipped with Super Cruise and the company's latest vehicle electronic system to operate hands-free on major, undivided highways in the United States and Canada, as well as additional miles of divided, interstate highways. Currently, Super Cruise operates only on interstate, divided highways. The expansion, enabled by wider digital mapping, will allow owners of properly equipped GM vehicles to cruise hands-free on stretches of Route 66 and the Pacific Coast Highway in the U.S. West or the Trans-Canada highway in Western Canada, GM said. Many of the new roads GM has mapped are in rural, heartland states where GM pickup trucks are popular. GM plans to offer Super Cruise as an option on its Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra large pickups later this year. GM has said previously it intends to offer Super Cruise as an option on 22 models by the end of 2023. Depending on the model, Super Cruise costs $2,200 to $2,500 to add as an option.

Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile

Mon, 18 Nov 2013

The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.

GM admits goal of 500,000 EVs by 2017 won't be met

Sat, May 9 2015

After a little over four years of Chevy Volt sales, General Motors has a better handle on how many people it expects will buy cars with plugs. And it's less than the company thought back in 2012, when then-senior vice president of global product development, Mary Barra, said that GM expected to sell 500,000 "vehicles with electrification" by 2017. In a sustainability report released this week, GM says that half-million vehicle target will not be met but that it still, "believes the future is electric." In the report, GM says that, "For our commitment to electrification, our forecasted outlook currently projects us, along with the broader automotive industry, falling short of expectations for 2017. ... We continue to aspire to our stated goal." GM's electric lineup includes the Volt, the recently popular Spark EV, the slow-selling Cadillac ELR and upcoming Malibu Hybrid, CT6 plug-in hybrid and eAssist technology in the Buick LaCrosse and Regal. GM says it has 180,834 electrified vehicles on the road in the US today. In 2013, it had 153,034; 95,578 in 2012, and 39,843 in 2011. The company's next big plug-in vehicle will be the second-gen Chevy Volt, which is coming to market later this year, followed by the 200-mile Bolt EV coming, we think, in 2017. GM Employees on Mission to Transform Transportation Sustainability report outlines vehicle and manufacturing progress; sets new targets 2015-05-07 DETROIT – General Motors' just-released sustainability report chronicles efforts by the company's 216,000 employees to live out GM's newly defined purpose and values by earning customer loyalty, applying meaningful technology advances and improving the communities where it does business. These actions Â– led by CEO Mary Barra Â– further drive sustainability into the company's culture through building safer and smarter vehicles with less environmental impact. "GM will take a leading role in the auto industry's transformation as it undergoes an unprecedented period of change," said Bob Ferguson, senior vice president, GM Global Public Policy. "From GM's labs to its assembly lines, our people are driving the world to a better place through improved mobility." The company believes the future is electric, with billions of investment to support an all-in-house approach to the development and manufacturing of electrified vehicles. It now counts 180,834 on the road in the U.S Â– up from 153,034 in 2013.
