This auction is for a 1981 Corvette which has been involved in a front end collision. It was paid off by the former owners insurance company, and I purchased it from their auction. The title has been signed over by the insurance company, but has not been stamped salvage. This may or may not deem the title salvage, depending on your state's laws. The car is in great shape for it's age. The interior looks to have been restored at some point and is in beautiful condition as seen in the pics. The body looks excellent, except for the obvious damage to the front end. I have a lot of experience with C3 Corvettes and this one looks like it had never been hit before. The frame looks straight, I see nothing bent, except possible the horns at the very front, which are very thin and can be moved with a hammer if needed. The remainder of the frame is exceptionally clean for a 33 yr old car. The exhaust is in excellent condition and looks fairly new. The tires look fairly new too, with lots of tread. The car starts right up and idles fine, sounds good, with no noise or smoke. I see a Crane Cam sticker inside the hood, the car has a nice lope to it. Other than that, the engine appears all original, down to the valve covers and air cleaner. It has a small exhaust leak and there is a pair of hoses missing from the AIR pump to the exhaust manifolds. The car drives in the yard. The brakes work but the pedal feels soft. There is an aftermarket stereo in the dash, along with a multi disc CD changer and amp in the back cargo area. The car also has a very nice set of PPG glass t tops. I have all of the damaged parts that I removed from the car and have saved the hardware in Ziploc bags. This car is being relisted due to a non paying bidder. Please do not bid unless you intend to follow through with your commitment. You are bidding to buy the car, not to think about whether you want it or not. If you are a new bidder with zero feedback please email me before bidding or I will cancel your bid. I'm sorry to have to say all of this but some people ruin it for everybody. This car is being sold as a repairable in as is condition, with no warranty. It is the buyer's responsibility to ensure that it has been repaired to roadworthy condition before driving on public roads. Buyer is responsible for shipping, but I can list it on Central Dispatch to help find a ride home for it. We will be glad to help load the car on our end. Please feel free to email me with any questions. |

Chevy monitors drivers' biometrics while experiencing new Corvette Stingray
Fri, 25 Oct 2013We tell you about what a car is like to drive every day, remarking on throttle response, steering weight and feedback, squat, dive, brake fade and a dozen or more other factors of performance. What we can't tell you, though, is what the car does to us - how its performance impacts us, physically. That's what makes this video series from Chevrolet so darn cool.
The Bow-Tie brand rented out Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch, got several (very) different individuals together, strapped a bunch of sensors to their bodies to record biometric data ranging from heart rate to respiration to brain activity, and then handed them keys to the new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The results are explained in a series of videos, devoted to each driver, showing how different people react to the Corvette's performance.
If, like your author, you're a nerd for medical science, this is going to be a fascinating set of videos. If not, it's still pretty cool to see how the body of someone with racing experience, like Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi, reacts to tracking a car like the Corvette Stingray compared to the owner of legendary Detroit barbecue joint, Slows BBQ. Take a look below for all six videos from the series, or hop over to the Corvette Vimeo channel for the interactive experience, where you can see all the different metrics.
Chevy: The Big Game
Mon, Feb 2 2015Chevrolet took an early lead for the 2015 Super Bowl advertising crown with its spot for the all-new, 4G LTE-capable Colorado pickup in a spot that simulated a problem with your TV. The stark, simple ad then states that if you're lucky enough to have an Internet-capable vehicle, like the new Colorado, you'd at least be able to stream the game. A clever, chuckle-inducing spot if there was one. Check out our full write up of the new, 2015 Colorado. Marketing/Advertising Chevrolet Truck Super Bowl Commercials Videos 2015 super bowl ad
Watch the National Corvette Museum sinkhole being filled in by R/C cars
Sun, Jan 11 2015Okay, so not exactly cars, but Bobcats - but still quite cool. You might remember that the National Corvette Museum had that little divot that needed to be filled in. Turns out the construction firm of Scott, Murphy & Daniel doing the work is using two remote-controlled Bobcats to fill the sinkhole with "manufactured sand," which in this case is crushed limestone. It appears that the Bobcat company has offered remote operation since at least 2007 via a wireless transmitter that works up to 1,500 feet away. So yes, that means two SMD employees stand on the edge of the pit and flick joystick levers for hours at a time, one in charge of a Bobcat with a roller-compactor attachment, the other in charge of a Bobcat with a bucket. And that, to us, is a pretty good way to earn the daily bread. Check out the video above for the latest sinkhole update.
