New Bern, North Carolina, United States

First, the car is located in New Bern, NC. I am listing this car for my father, any and all questions can be directed to him. His name is Lonnie and his number is 252-637-2976.

 Very rarely do you find a car that is of this age in this condition. it would be a perfect candidate for a 409 transplant or drive it as is and enjoy the reliability and gas sipping economy of the great running 230 cid 6 cylinder. Purchased this car a year or so ago with the plans of making it an everyday driver but too many projects and too little time to complete all of them mandates the sale of this one to finish another one.

It is a 1963 Belair 2 dr sedan with the original 230/6 and power glide transmission. The car is in very very solid condition with very little rust. The floors and trunk are in perfect shape, never being patched or replaced and not undercoated so you can see exactly what you are getting. All of the body mounts are perfect, even the ones behind the rear tires where they typically rust out. Doors fenders all perfect. The ONLY rust I can see is a few very small bubbles trying to emerge from in front of the driverside rear tire. When I say minor I mean minor. The body is straight and does not show evidence of a bunch of bondo. The paint has a very nice patina to it, it has been painted once a very long time ago. It has new door rubbers, trunk rubber, window felts etc. The bumpers are original and in very nice shape with new aluminum inserts in the center. Everything works.

The interior has been redone in the original type look with original cloth inserts in grey with black vinyl. It really looks nice on the inside and the headliner is nice and overall it is just very nice on the inside.

The mechanicals on the car are also very solid. The brakes have been completely redone, engine has been tuned up and runs great. Powerglide 2 speed auto shifts nicely and performs nicely. Pat the gas, hit the ignition and she fires right up everytime. New tires, new exhaust, good battery, this ole girl is ready to ride. Drive it home. It really drives great on the highway.

If you are looking for a great car to drive or modify to your taste this is where you want to start. You will not be disappointed with what you see when you come to look. It is amazing just how solid and rust free this car is.   PLease call with any questions and to set up a time to come look.

This car is sold as is where is and there is no warranty expressed or implied.  Please come and inspect the car before purchasing or send someone to inspect it for you.  No bidders with excessive negative feedback or no feedback.  Shipping is the responsibility of the purchaser, although we can help with loading.  Have your money right before you bid, $500.00 immediate deposit required after winning auction, deposit is non-refundable.  Full payment expected within 3 days of winning auction unless other arrangements are made PRIOR to auction end. The car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early.   BID WITH CONFIDENCE!!!

C7 Corvette turbo with 1,000 horsepower promised from Hennessey

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

If you can't wait for the next-generation Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Hennessey says they will have you covered. The Texas-based company has announced it will offer a spate of upgrades for the 2014 Corvette ranging from a range of bolt-on options all the way up to a 1,000-horsepower, twin-turbo system. Buyers can start with a cold air intake, cat-back exhaust or stainless steel long-tube headers, but Hennessey says it will also offer up three stages of forced induction mayhem should those bits and baubles not provide enough thrust.
Those choices start with a supercharger system good for up to 700 hp, though Hennessey will gladly ditch the blower in favor of two turbos. Doing so will spin the crank to the tune of 800 horsepower all the way up to a certifiably ludicrous 1,000 ponies. There's no word on how much these tricks will cost you - or when they will be available, as we're guessing they haven't gotten their hands on the car yet - but you can head over to the Hennessey site to drop them a line if you're curious.

GM recalling 521,817 cars in two campaigns

Tue, May 12 2015

General Motors is issuing two, separate recalls covering a total of 521,817 vehicles worldwide. The larger campaign covers 468,887 units of the 2011-2012 Chevrolet Malibu. Specifically, 437,045 of these are in the US, and the rest are outside the country. In these sedans, a steel cable that connects the seat belt to the vehicle can fatigue and separate. GM knows of 36 claims about the problem but only one minor injury. According to The Detroit News, this happened when a taxi driver hit his head. To fix things, dealers will replace the "outboard lap mounting bracket," which will move the tensioner rearward. They'll also inspect and if necessary replace the steel cable and lap pretensioner. In the second campaign, 52,930 examples the 2015 Chevy Colorado and 2015 GMC Canyon have seat frame attachment hooks that were installed incorrectly during assembly. GM hasn't received any reports of crashes, injuries, or fatalities about this problem. Dealers will inspect the affected trucks and repair as necessary. GM spokesperson Alan Adler told Autoblog that he didn't yet have a specific date when affected owners would receive official mailings about either of these recalls. GM Statement General Motors is recalling 48,309 2015 model year Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon midsize pickup trucks in the U.S. because certain seat frame attachment hooks were not properly attached to the vehicle body during assembly. Dealers will inspect the potentially affected seats for proper installation and repair if necessary. GM knows of no crashes, injuries or fatalities related to this condition. The total vehicle population of the recall is 52,930 including 4,620 vehicles sold in Canada. General Motors is recalling 437,045, 2011-2012 model year Chevrolet Malibus in the U.S. because the flexible steel cable that connects the safety belt to the vehicle can fatigue and separate over time as a result of occupant movement in the seat. Dealers will replace the outboard lap mounting bracket to relocate the tensioner slightly rearward. Dealers will inspect the cable and, if necessary, replace the lap pretensioner. GM knows of 36 claims, no crashes or fatalities and one minor injury reportedly related to the condition. The total vehicle population of the recall is 468,887 including Canada, Mexico and exports.

Chevy Corvette Stingray "colorizer" lets you chase the rainbow

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

After you've convinced your better half to let you buy a new Corvette, then comes the hard part... actually figuring out which 'Vette you want. While Chevrolet has yet to release the official configurator for the 2014 Corvette Stingray, it did give us something else to kill some time playing around with.
The C7 Corvette "colorizer" recently went online, and it lets you look at the car in all of its available colors and wheel options from four different angles so that when this car does go on sale, you know exactly which one you want. It includes the Corvette's full pallet of colors including Torch Red, Laguna Blue and the hue you see above, Velocity Yellow. Toss in the black wheels, and we're sold. If you have some time this afternoon, be sure to check it out the Corvette colorizer for yourself, and even if you don't have the time, we've put together a gallery with all of the possible color combinations.
