This is the real deal, and a real opportunity to own a real classic that been meticulously restored to its original glory. I cannot express the thrill of turning the key and firing up the big block 427, or the torque as the clutch is released and the gas pedal is pressed down – nothing I can do could create that rush but I will try to link a YouTube video so you can at least hear it. The car is near perfect – and it is without doubt the cleanest one I have ever seen and while it has never been shown or judged to prove its excellence and presence, at least when you do and it does win the trophies, ribbons, plaques and certificates it will all be YOURS and not someone else’s!! This color is near impossible to photograph and capture it’s true essence as it changes in different light and the time of day but the clear coat is deep and shiny like the chrome. This frame off restoration of this Texas car was completed in 1993 with the coachwork done by Bob’s Big Boys Toys in Victoria Texas and the machine work completed by Dave at the vintage experts in Austin Texas with “The Cylinder Head Shop”. The reality of offering this magnificent car here on eBay is to get lots of visibility – and start any dialogue, questions and answers and provide documentation and more pictures and of course inspections. It is not our intention to create a museum quality advertisement or educate everyone on the history of the Corvette or how rare or special this last year of the C2 is and how rare the combination of options from the factory are – if you know these cars you will know what you want to see and what questions you want answered. Regardless, I have included some key pictures below that can be enlarged in groups of about 24 that capture many highlights of the perfection to detail and quality of the finish that puts this car in the hunt as a true find and treasure. The current owner is my close personal friend as was the previous owner his brother who is no longer with us. I have known them for 30 years, and you will learn of the roots in Texas history that this car came from all the way back to the original owner that did not make it home while serving his country in Vietnam. Yes, kind of like a Private Malone story. In addition I think it goes without saying that we have all the pre and post restoration pictures and receipts that I have tried to attach below in the eBay listing but will also provide a link on shutterfly. The title is here and clean, the original owners manual and build sheet, all the receipts with details on the parts and machine work done and more. All the numbers match on this car with over $30,000 in receipts in 1992 and only 100 miles since. The engine was removed and rebuilt (details available) and the factory options both common and rare and included - · Marlboro Maroon #988AA (the same color as the original 67 brochure)
- · 427 CI / 390HP V8 TurboJet Engine
- · 4 Speed CL Ratio Manual Transmission (original)
- · Factory Air
- · Backup Lights

This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...

Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.

Next time you order from Domino's Pizza, check out the delivery car. In an effort to get hot and fresh pizzas to hungry customers, the company is creating a small run of custom vehicles that are tailored for the job. Dubbed the Domino's Delivery Expert (DXP), these 2015 Chevrolet Spark-based hatchbacks pack a plethora of features to provide the perfect pie. When the DXP's on delivery duty, every order should arrive steaming hot thanks to the hatchback's biggest custom upgrade – a warming oven right behind the driver. Accessible from outside, it can keep pizzas at the perfect temperature on the way to your house and hold two of Domino's Heatwave bags. Other than the driver's seat, the rest of the interior also gets replaced with bountiful storage and non-slip surfaces. According to the company, as many as 80 pizzas could conceivably fit inside, and that would be quite a party. The exterior is still clearly derived from the Spark but with some clever additions. An illuminated "Out for Delivery" sign is on the roof, and a puddle light shoots the Domino's logo on the ground. Plus, the company's red-and-blue color scheme is emblazoned over the hood, pillars, and hatch. Underneath all the pizza-related mods, power comes from a 1.2-liter four-cylinder and CVT. Rather than just a one-off stunt, Domino's is working with Roush Enterprises and former General Motors exec Kenneth R. Baker to build 100 DXPs. They're hitting the streets in 25 US cities, and you can check if your locale is included on the project's website. The seed of this idea came from a partnership with Local Motors to crowdsource the ultimate pizza delivery platform. Domino's Launches Purpose-Built Pizza Delivery Vehicle Domino's Innovative DXP™ Created by Three Great Michigan Brands and an International Crowdsourcing Design Competition Ann Arbor, Mich., Oct. 21, 2015 -- In its latest innovation as the recognized world leader in pizza delivery, Domino's (NYSE:DPZ) is launching the Domino's DXP™ (Delivery Expert), a specially designed and built pizza delivery vehicle. The DXP is the combined brainchild of former GM R&D executive Kenneth R. Baker, Michigan-based Roush Enterprises and Domino's. To also include consumers' input, hundreds of concepts were initially identified in an online crowdsourcing design competition hosted by Local Motors. "The Domino's DXP is the first purpose-built vehicle aimed at revolutionizing pizza delivery," said Russell Weiner, president of Domino's USA.
