70 LT-1 Corvette. This is a driver. All numbers matching. New front coil springs, rebuilt front calipers, new front pads, new shocks, New starter, New tires (less than 500 miles), New mufflers.
The following is the history of the car as I know it, along with the condition to the best of my knowledge. I am giving the good and the bad. It is 43 years old after all. I am trying to be as up front as possible.
This car came from Virginia to California about 17 years ago. The car sat for 11 years after the move to Ca. Over the last 3 years the car has been driven on weekends during good weather. The car runs well (motor, tranny, rear end, brakes, etc.). The compression is good, up to factory specs when checked 2 years ago. The outer ring on the harmonic balancer has spun, so the timing mark is off. I don't know if the motor was ever out, if it was it was along time ago. It still has the solid lifters and the cam sounds correct, nice lope at idle. With 11.00:1 compression you must run 100+ octane otherwise it detonates under load. 112 Sunoco worked well. The car still has TI. The car has PB and the front calipers were rebuilt to factory specs. The frame has surface rust but is solid, no issues near the arches. The rear trailing arm pockets are also solid with no cancer observed, surface rust only. The car was painted at some in the past not sure when but 20+ years ago. It still looks ok 10' out but does have chips here and there and the spider webs on the front fenders as is common. When the drivers side coil spring collapsed, it tore a strip of fiberglass at the top of the wheel arch when the tire hit it. Its not bad just want to disclose it. The chrome is 43 years old and although not great it is not pitted. The radio is AM/FM and works. The electric windows work, the drivers side window has to be helped up and down due to an issue with the regulator. The car has fiber optics and per normal some work. The temp gauge is not working. The car has headers, no air pump (obviously). Lights work as well as blinkers etc. Wiper door works, wipers do not. The speedo shows 105,000 miles but the speedo only works intermittently. No paperwork, i.e protecto plate, build sheet. There is a tank sticker visible to the left side of the filler neck. It is there but I'm not going to try and get it out. The interior is good for 43 years there are no tears. The drivers side seat of course shows the most wear. For some reason there are no backs on the seats. The car comes with some additional resto parts, mostly trim screws and 4 of OEM "coolie hat" wheel covers. I have the OEM air cleaner top also. The oil dip stick tube is broken and I do have a replacement.
For those that are interested, Engine: 70S411937/V0603CTK, Block date: E290, casting#3970010, Intake Manifold: 3912116
Tranny code: POE21B (VIN matches), Paint: 972, Trim: 403(BLK Leather), Heads: 3927186 E250.
I reserve the right to end the auction early if the car sells locally.
Obviously there are no warranties implied or given on this car. It is sold as is where is.

More Corvette Stingray Factoids: Vanishing panel gaps and 26-mpg LT1
Thu, 28 Feb 2013During January's Detroit Auto Show, we managed a longer than expected wandering tag-team interview with C7 Corvette chief engineering exec Tadge Juechter (pictured above), and LT1 engine boss Jordan Lee (pictured below). They are, quite honestly, two of the very nicest bigshot lads to ever walk the engineering corridors of an American manufacturer. Both are enthralled by what they're doing for a day job. So are we.
We've followed the pre-sale anticipation for the Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray like an Oreck vacuum yanking every speck of dirt from a well-trampled carpet. Everything is reportable and contains a grain of further knowledge about this dramatically important and cheered-for car, as it continues to be pressured into representing all that is superior about the American dream. The Corvette wears one heavy cloak.
So, most of what was talked about has been expertly reported already right here on Autoblog. But, looking through our notes again, both Jeuchter and Lee added facts to the buzzing mix.
'Baby Driver' is a car chase movie set to music
Mon, Mar 13 2017The Fate of the Furious is certainly the 6,000-pound SUV in the garage of automotive movies, but that doesn't mean gearheads are starved for options. The upcoming film Baby Driver looks to be a winner for car guys, featuring exciting chases with cars including a "hawk-eye" Impreza WRX, a Dodge Challenger, and a 1980s Chevy Caprice. The movie is written and directed by Edgar Wright, whom you may know as the man behind movies such as Sean of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. And based on the two trailers released so far, seen above and below, it's about a young man by the name of Baby, who is a getaway driver for criminals. He's apparently the best in the business, and the secret to his success is the music he listens to while he's driving. He also wants out, but his boss, played by Kevin Spacey, has no intention of letting him go. Spacey is one of a number of major stars in the film, including Jamie Foxx and John Hamm. The driving action shown in the trailers definitely looks entertaining. The WRX is seen doing an array of drifts and J-turns. There is some driving precision on display here that wouldn't be out of place in a Gymkhana video. And it looks like Wright's attention to detail in his shots and transitions, as well as some solid comedy relief, are all going to be present. The film comes out this August.

Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]
Mon, 18 Mar 2013Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting?
