I purchased this car last October from the original owner with 37,000 miles on it.  It now has 40,000 miles.  
When I got it, it was completely original, completely stock.  
Since then, I have done the following:
I removed factory wheels and tires and changed them to 17 inch wheels.  
The center caps in the wheels are from an early 80's Z 28.  
Tires are VREDESTEIN SESSANTAS 270/40 ZR 17
(don't feel bad, I never heard of the brand either, but Google it and you will understand the quality of these tires)
There is $1300 in the tires and wheels
As soon as I got the car I changed brake pads all 4 corners ( I think it still had the originals on it). I changed the oil and filter with synthetic oil, even though the oil only had about 4,000 miles on it, to me it looked dirty. 
I then got the cowl induction hood. The Harwood hood was $650. The original hood will go with the car.  
When I had the hood painted, I also painted the mascara effect headlight buckets to match the car. 
I installed brighter headlights, 
I changed all 4 corner clearance lights to black lenses.
I then put beefed up driving/fog lights on that required relays.
I have kept all of the original lights which will go with the car.  
I then went to work on the sound system.  It's a high end Pioneer with hands free telephone capabilities, navigation system, satellite radio, and a back-up camera installed in the rear bumper. Total cost of sound was $2,000. While the sound was being installed, I changed out all the factory speakers to a better quality speaker.  The lows are deep without rattling and the highs are crisp.  I also installed a sub/woofer and a separate amp in the trunk.  
I don't know if you can see it in a pic or not, but the microphone for the hands free phone is in the center of the top of the windshield.  Hopefully, one of the photos shows the antennae for the satellite radio which is mounted in the center of the windshield side of the dashboard. 
At the time I had the sound system installed, I also had all the windows tinted.  I don't remember the exact cost, but I think it was about $175.00.
The rear camera is wired so it can be used all the time whether you are driving or not.  Thus, I can use it as a rear view mirror, since the back window in this convertible is very, very small. 
The CD/VCR player is also wired so it can be used while the vehicle is in motion in case the passenger wants to watch movies while enroute. 

Everything I have done to this car has been strictly nuts and bolts.  So, if a purist out there wants it, it can all go back to stock.  The factory wheels are in exceptionally good condition and will go with the car including all the original lug nuts, including the locking nuts and lug wrench.  One of the wheels has a very slight scuff on it (you have to really look for it to even see it!)  The tires that came with it still have a lot of tread.  I was going to put pics of the factory wheels on the ad, but I don't know how to put more than 24 photos on the ad.  If anyone wants to see pictures of the wheels/tires, let me know and I will email them to you.  
The convertible top was replaced by the original owner with a factory equipment top.
The car has never been in an accident.
I am not interested in any trade ins whether it has wheels or wings. 
If you have to get permission from your wife, girlfriend, or Mommy, please do it before you bid.  I have had to start over with an ad before because someone wanted to purchase something without getting permission. 
I am located approximately an hour and a half northwest of Little Rock, Arkansas if anyone would like to come take a test ride before bidding.  I have absolutely nothing to hide. I can't imagine if you like the color combination on this vehicle you could find one any nicer or better equipped. 
Now that I have this looking exactly as I wanted it, I realized that I just don't enjoy a car this big.  I am used to having sports cars, and have purchased the Miata which you can see in some of the pictures.  The car has been garaged since I purchased it, and whereas the original owner claimed he had never driven it in the rain, there are times I have been out when it started raining, and rather than walk home, I decided to drive it!  The original owner was older, as I am also.  The car has never been driven hard or abused. 
As can be seen in one of the pics, there is a wear mark on the lower side of the driver's seat.  That is the only thing I see wrong with the interior.  Since it has been driven for 40,000 miles-yes, there are a few stone chips in the front.  This is not a show car; I have kept in in my garage and not in my bedroom.  However, I feel it is exceptionally clean and way, way, way above average. 
Gas mileage is claimed to be 17 and 25; whereas I myself have not checked that, it feels about right. 
For anybody who does not want to come here and drive it home, I will not arrange shipping, but I will cooperate with your shipper to the best of my ability as long as I have a day's notice. 
Anyone who would like additional pictures from different angles, or closeups, please let me know and I will try to accommodate you.   If anyone would like details not specified, call me and I will answer your questions as honestly as possible at phone number 501-745-6117.  Keep trying, I am not home much. As I am still driving this car occasionally, mileage will increase slightly. 
There is no lien, I have the title right here.
The $200.00 deposit is via Paypal and is nonrefundable. Payment is expected in cash when car is picked up.  If paying by check in any form, check will have to be converted to cash before vehicle and title are released.  I realize that the honest buyers out there are in the majority, so I apologize if some of my remarks sound snide.  I am just tired of dealing with tire kickers who do not carry through with the transaction.  Thank you for your understanding. 
There are probably things I have forgotten to mention.  When they come to me, I will add them to the ad. 
I am sorry this text is so lengthy, but I could not figure a way to make it more concise.

Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th

Tue, 15 Apr 2014

It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.

2015 Green Car Of The Year finalists announced, run alt-fuel gamut

Tue, Oct 21 2014

The 2015 edition of the Green Car of the Year award is following right in the footsteps of previous years with a variety of alt-fuel powertrains making the just-announced finalists list. You've got your plug-in vehicle (the BMW i3), your compressed natural gas (the Chevy Impala Bi-Fuel), your high-efficiency diesel (the Audi A3 TDI), your 40+ mile-per-gallon gas engine (the Honda Fit) and, finally, a car that can do a little bit of everything (the VW Golf). The Golf is available – at least in some parts of the US – with three different powertrains: a 2.0-liter diesel, a gasoline engine and all-electric drive. The Impala can burn either natural gas or gasoline in its 3.6-liter engine. The A3 is an efficiency champ, able to get 73.5 mpg on some European tests. The i3 can be a pure electric vehicle or come with a short range extending engine. And the Fit brings 41 miles to the gallon in a practical, affordable package. The GCOY award is announced every year at the Los Angeles Auto Show by Green Car Journal. The committee doesn't just take the fuel-saving technology into account, but also a vehicle's "availability to the mass market." Last year, the Honda Accord Hybrid/Plug-In Hybrid won top honors, following up on wins from the Ford Fusion models (plug-in hybrid and hybrid) for 2013, the Honda Civic Natural Gas for 2012 and the Chevrolet Volt for 2011. FINALISTS ANNOUNCED FOR 2015 "GREEN CAR OF THE YEAR"" Green Car Journal to Reveal Winner of 10th Annual Award at LA Auto Show" Press & Trade Days, November 20 LOS ANGELES, CA (October 21, 2014) – Green Car Journal has announced its five finalists for the magazine's high-profile 2015 Green Car of the Year® program. The 2015 models include the Audi A3 TDI, BMW i3, Chevrolet Impala Bi-Fuel, Honda Fit, and VW Golf. The Green Car of the Year® award, an honor widely recognized as the auto industry's most important environmental accolade, celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. An increasing number of vehicle models are considered for the Green Car of the Year® program each year, a reflection of the auto industry's expanding efforts in offering new vehicles with higher efficiency and improved environmental impact. Green Car Journal has been honoring the most important "green" vehicles every year at the LA Auto Show, since its inaugural award announced at the show in 2005.

GM to restore legendary Corvette damaged in sinkhole accident

Fri, Dec 5 2014

Car lover's hearts' sank when they saw images of bent and destroyed classic Corvettes at the bottom of a sinkhole last February after the floor of the National Corvette Museum gave way. General Motors announced Wednesday it would restore the one millionth Corvette ever produced to its former glory. The 1992 convertible was heavily damaged when a 40-foot deep sinkhole opened beneath a bevy of rare cars at the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Since then, GM has been slowly restoring the classic cars, though five of the eight that caught in the sinkhole were determined to be too damaged to repair. This November, the 2009 Corvette ZR1 Blue Devil was the first car to be returned in mint condition to the Museum, according to Autoblog. It suffered significant damage but was still drivable after being pulled out of the debris. The one millionth Corvette is still in bad shape. The automaker is estimating six months worth of work to restore the car, which sustained paint scratches, rear-suspension damage and a mangled front fender.
