1963 CHEVROLET CORVETTE ROADSTER! FULL RESTORATION STARTED IN 2011, FINISHED IN 2013! MIRROR FINISH PAINT, ALL NEW, FRONT TO BACK! BEAUTIFUL & FUN TO DRIVE! FRESHLY BUILT 327 & FOUR SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION!

This Corvette under went a very lengthy as well as costly restoration back in 2011 - 2013. The entire car was completely tore down and gone through. The drive train, the suspension, interior, body, paint, chrome, stainless, everything was gone through. The finishing work of the car was clearly done by someone who knows their way around around these C2's. The fit and finish work are absolutely superb. The one area of this Corvette, which I still have a hard time understanding, is the body and paint work. Every C1, C2, & C3 that GM ever produced, came from the factory practically waving at you. Whoever did the body and paint work on this car were beyond meticulous. It truly has a mirror finish to it (please refer to photos and video located below). I've never seen a C2 with as nice of a body and paint. I personally would have been devastated when they handed me the bill. The rear frame rails appear to be completely original and solid. I don't believe they have ever been through any kind of repair work. I believe this Vet has spent the bulk of its life, tucked away indoors.

The motor and transmission were completely gone through. I believe it is a factory 327 with a four speed Muncie. Both of which operate exceptionally well. The motor does not leak, smoke, or burn an excess amount of fluid. It is quite powerful but is not extreme. It still runs on regular premium pump gas. The four speed shifts smoothly through all of its gears with out any hesitation. The dual exhaust setup sound surreal. The video located below, truly does not do this Vet any kind of justice. The steering setup is exceptional. It does not have a lot of play and still feels like it did the day it came off of the factory. It is not a sloppy mess. The brake setup is all new on the Vet and it works very well. It does not squeal, shake, or shimmy when stopping.

The interior of the Corvette has been completely redone. The instrument panel appears to be all new as does the carpet and door panels. The seats I believe were redone in real leather. They also did an excellent job in this regard.

Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize.

2015 Callaway Corvette Z06 gets new supercharger, adds $17K to starting price

Tue, Apr 21 2015

Callaway's proud tradition of modifying Chevrolets is about to add a very significant chapter this weekend, as the company prepares to unveil a modified version of the 2015 Corvette Z06. The engine mods are simple, though we expect them to be very potent. That's because Chevy has replaced the factory supercharger with a new "GenThree" unit that's nearly a third larger than what's bolted on in Bowling Green. A new intercooler is also added, along with a new high-flow intake system. Beyond that, the changes are exclusively of the subtle cosmetic variety. There's new badging inside and out, as well as new engine covers, floormats and an underhood plaque. Naturally, there's documentation to verify the Callaway Z06's authenticity, and the comfort that comes with a three-year, 36,000-mile warranty. Callaway has priced the upgrade package at $16,995, in addition to the price of the stock Z06. While we're still waiting to hear official power figures, that seems like a reasonable asking price for what were wagering will be a major increase in power. The Callaway Z06 will debut this weekend at the National Corvette Museum's C7 Bash in Bowling Green, KY. Expect more details following the debut. Scroll down for the official press release. Related Video: 2015 Callaway Corvette Z06 to Debut at National Corvette Museum The 2015 Callaway Corvette Z06 will debut at the National Corvette Museum C7 Bash in Bowling Green, Kentucky, April 23 through April 25. Here's a sneak peek at the new package. Based on Chevrolet's track-proven Z06, Callaway engineers' no-compromise approach takes this Corvette to an astounding power level. While advertised Callaway horsepower and torque are pending final validation, the Callaway package adds Callaway's new GenThree supercharger system with 32% more displacement than the stock Z06 supercharger, improved manifold design and unique triple-element intercooling system. Callaway engineers recognize that a key contributor to maximizing power is reduction of inlet air temperature. By exposing the supercharger's large plenum area to outside ambient airflow, the design takes advantage of the significant charge air temperature reduction provided by convective cooling. The completely redesigned intercooling system also helps maintain nearly ambient charge air temperature with exceptionally low air restriction.

AEV-upgraded GMC Canyon AT4X, Chevy Colorado ZR2 appear in spy photos

Mon, Dec 12 2022

As with the previous generation, it appears the 2023 Chevy Colorado ZR2 will be getting a special AEV version. Not only that, but its twin, the GMC Canyon AT4X will get one, too. And as these spy photos show, they'll have some additional off-road accessories included, as well as bigger tires. We'll start with the GMC Canyon. The first example of the truck without any camouflage is not quite fully upgraded like the camouflage vehicles. But it has one part not seen on the others: the AEV snorkel. 2023 Chevy Colorado ZR2 AEV Bison prototype View 13 Photos The two appear to be riding on larger Goodyear Wrangler Terrain MT tires. These look like 35-inch examples -- 2 inches larger than the biggest tires available on the ZR2 and AT4X. They're also mounted on beadlock capable wheels. Besides the bigger tires, both trucks also feature a new bed-mounted spare tire. It's a full-size spare, and unlike past bed-mounts, this one places the tire flush against the cab. The benefit of moving the spare to the bed is departure angle. And while this position looks a little less like how trophy trucks carry their spares, it should provide better cargo space. Rear visibility probably isn't great, though. Generalizing based on what we know about the current ZR2 Bison, the new AEV trucks will probably get unique grilles, steel bumpers, fender flares, a suspension lift and possibly even axle ratio changes. Additional options such as a winch could be offered, too. We expect the trucks will be revealed within the next year, since the base trucks have already been shown, and these are just upgraded versions of those trucks.
