Nice 1986 low mileage Corvette Coupe.  81876 miles.  The engine is the tuned port, fuel injected L-98.  In 2010, $2000.00 was put into the engine.  A bearing had spun, so the engine was taken out and steamed cleaned the block and the crank was turned down .010 and new rod, main and cam bearing were put in.  New high volume oil pump was also put it in as were new injectors (Ford Borg Warner).  They atomize better with 3 orifices as opposed to the single for the Vette injectors.  New water pump, thermostat, timing chain, serpentine belt, tensioners etc.  Also a new rack and pinion.  I traded valve covers with our 73 Blazer as I thought the orange color gave the under the hood look a little more color and people liked it.  The oil pressure is very high all the time having to do with the high performance oil pump and of course the new bottom end and has a heavy duty radiator and a radiator boost fan in addition to the regular radiator fan.  (fans are designed to turn on at 229 degrees), Corvette want high engine temperatures for best performance.  The new thermostat is 190 degrees. It has an engine oil cooler and the performance handling package and includes the Delco-Bilstein shock absorbers. It has power drivers seat, power locks, power windows, removable plexiglass roof panel (blue tint) which is weather checked (looks like little cracks) from age but still very service able), Electronic air conditioning control and converted to 134 and blows cold. It has cruise control, the stereo system is Delco-Bose and the radio/CD player is after market Sony. The retractable antennae works fine. The transmission is the Turbo Hydra matic 700 R-4 4 speed automatic. The car fast and the engine has a nice powerful sound to it.  The performance handling package (basically heavy duty) gives it a slightly higher stance than the regular Corvette 12821 were give this option. (looks Cool).  We averaged around 14 to 17 MPG in the city and up to 20 to 24 in the country.  It has a new block heater.  We never ran it in the winter as it was stored in a heated building.  There were only 128 Vettes made with the blue metallic color.  The tires have maybe up to 20000 miles of wear left on them.  They are the larger P255/60VR16.  It's a real fun car and handles and runs superbly.  There are a couple of dings and I've included them in the photos.  The major one is around the upper part of the riders side wheel well which shows it in photo #8.  It needs to have a little more professional attention to it and the right turn guide light lens needs to be replaced with an original lens.  Photo#9 shows the rider's side rear where the paint had pealed off slightly. Photo #10 shows chips by driver's door.  Photo #11 shows a scuff on rear driver's side and photo #12 show chips above driver's side wheel well. The interior color is called Graphite.  Photo 20 and 21 show the roof cover off and stored in the rear.  We hate to part with it but my son is in college now and I'm a disabled Vietnam vet and we need the money, so it has to go.  Remember this is a 28 year old car, but I believe one of the finer examples around, most of it's life has been in storage.  The NADA guide values this Vette at $19750 for high retail.  The average retail is $11700 and low retail is $7282.  Value wise we feel this Vette is somewhere between the high and average retail and way, way above low retail in value.  Purchaser will need to put a down Payment of $500 within 24 hours to Paypal. The remainder at pickup or within 7 days by way of cash or certified funds. The sale is for "as is' where is".  The vehicle will need to be picked up within 2 weeks as we are loosing our storage for it.  If payment in full is not made within 7 days then after the 7th day it will be relisted for sale or sold to the next highest offer.  I can deliver the vehicle at a cost of $1.00 per mile, please contact me if you have plans for that so we can make arrangements.  We have this car for sale locally so the Ebay listing may end early. Thanks for looking and if you have any questions please contact me.

Chevy Silverado HD gets the Custom Sport treatment

Thu, Apr 9 2015

Everyone remember the Silverado 1500 Custom Sport Chevrolet showed at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show? Good. Now, the company has applied the same styling treatment to its heavy-duty pickups, introducing the 2500 and 3500 Custom Sports. The two trucks appeared today at the 2015 Denver Auto Show. A monochromatic look is the order of the day, with the heavy-duty Silverados getting body colored bumpers both fore and aft as well as a body color grille. Chrome accents sit in said grille, while the shiny finish can also be found on the door handles and mirrors. Buyers of the 2500 Custom Sport will get five-spoke, 20-inch, polished wheels, while the brawnier 3500 gets 18-inch polished hoops as standard (dualies are downgraded to 17-inchers). Custom Sport models are only available in Summit White or Black. The trim package can be added to both LT and LTZ models, with a price premium ranging from $700 to $1,695, depending on the truck.

Detroit Three's lucrative pickup war intensifies as Ram makes big gains

Thu, Jan 3 2019

DETROIT — The battle for profits from sales of large pickup trucks is intensifying among the Detroit Three automakers as sales of small cars in the United States shrivel. For decades Ford has had the single best-selling truck brand in its F-Series trucks. General Motors' Chevrolet brand was a solid No. 2, and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' Ram was a distant third. Now, that hierarchy may be in flux. Sales figures for December and the fourth quarter released on Thursday show Ram tied with GM's Chevy for the No. 2 spot, as sales of the redesigned Ram pickup surged, fueled in part by demand for an optional 12-inch (30.48 cm) dashboard screen. Chevy not long ago held second place to Ford by a wide margin. GM executives said on Thursday they are bullish on their new GMC and Chevy trucks for 2019.Related: How the Detroit Three's pickups compare on paper 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie review 2019 Chevy Silverado 2.7L four-cylinder review 2019 Ford F-150 2.7L EcoBoost review "There's no doubt this segment (pickup trucks) is one of the epicenters of the auto wars," said Sandor Piszar, director of marketing for Chevrolet at GM. "It's been that way forever, and we wouldn't have it any other way." On Wall Street, investors give electric car leader Tesla a higher valuation than any of the Detroit automakers. But in the nation's heartland, big pickups remain far more popular and profitable than any electric car — and most other consumer vehicles of any kind. Large pickups generate at least $17,000 a vehicle in pretax profit for GM, the company has indicated in disclosures to investors. By contrast, many Detroit Three sedans are so unprofitable, their manufacturers have decided not to build them anymore. 'Hotly contested' Sustaining sales and pricing in the large-pickup segment will be critical in a year when most forecasters expect overall U.S. car and light truck sales to fall. Ford's U.S. sales chief, Mark LaNeve, on Thursday called the F Series "the backbone of our franchise" during a conference call, and added the "segment will continue to be strong, but hotly contested" in 2019. Automakers are banking on pickup truck sales to stay strong even if U.S. interest rates continue to rise. Rising interest rates translate into higher monthly car payments and are expected to deter some buyers in 2019. GM has said 27 percent of Chevrolet and GMC trucks — which can haul trailers by day and substitute for a luxury sedan by night — sell for more than $55,000.
