We are the second titled owner of this beautiful convertible.  Mr. Ralph Englestad first acquired this vehicle as new with a mso (manufacturer's statement of origin).  He was the owner of the Imperial Palace Resort and Casino in Las Vegas.  He was also an automobile dealer and had an extensive automobile collection.  In the early 1990's the vehicle was sold to the first titled owners.  They owned the car for 20 years.  We purchased the car in 2012 with total original documented miles of 9,670The miles are stated on our clear Tennessee title.  We have driven the car over 3,000 miles with no issues and much enjoyment.

When we purchased the vehicle, we had a Chevrolet dealership change all fluids, belts, hoses, etc. and requested GM products be used.  We also had a new top and new tires installed due to age.  This convertible is ready to drive any place and any distance you choose.  This isn't a car that has been dressed up and shined up to appear to be something it really isn't.  It can be enjoyed for years and decades to come.

The driver's side exterior remote mirror will not move.  The clock works but is unplugged because it makes an annoying clicking sound every one or two minutes.  The 8 track tape player works and certainly provides a nostalgic feature to the car (yes you can still purchase tapes).  This convertible is 39 years old and isn't perfect with some minor discoloration between floor mats and carpet, but they are original to the vehicle.  The top could use some adjustment but works fine as is.

If you have interest please call me and I will provide more details concerning the history of the car.  We have much documentation from the time the vehicle was first sold and titled.  We also have many more pictures that we can send you.  The number is 865-207-4493.  Please call between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. eastern time.  Please no text messages.

The vehicle is priced to sell with no reserve.  Please have finances in order and be prepared to complete payment within 7 days of purchase. It is advertised locally and is subject to sell prior to the 7 day auction ending.  We will work with the buyer anyway we can.

Thank you.

Body shop manager stole over $500,000 worth of government trucks and parts

Fri, Jan 27 2017

The US Department of Justice announced yesterday that the manager of a collision and restoration business in Virginia admitted he helped misappropriate and sell vehicles and parts from the State Department. Specifically, he sold 12 Chevrolet Suburbans, a Hummer, and $7,500 worth of tires and wheels. He pled guilty to charges to commit theft of government property and wire fraud. He will likely see 18 to 20 months in prison, a fine of $4,000 to $40,000, and has already agreed to pay restitution of $416,020 and asset forfeiture of the same amount. According to the Department of Justice, the body shop manager, James Ratcliffe, worked with the owner of the business and a State Department official, both unnamed, to obtain the property. It started with the wheels and tires, which were delivered and sold on two occasions, one in 2011 and another in 2012. The trucks came later, and were sold throughout 2011 and 2013. Ratcliffe and the shop owner kept most of the profits, and shared some of the leftovers with the government official. In addition to the vehicles that were sold, the government official also gave Ratcliffe a pair of Suburbans for his own personal use. The Department of Justice estimated the total value of the SUVs at $96,400. In total, the group misappropriated $512,420 worth of property. Related Video:

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible gives us a couple of looks

Sat, 02 Mar 2013

Put away your pixel paintbrushes, kids. Pack up your Photoshop. This is the real-deal 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible in its first official images. The droptop Chevrolet will roll into the bright lights of the Palexpo exhibition at next week's Geneva Motor Show, a four-wheeled statement of intent that General Motors is serious about taking its Corvette franchise global.
Chevy isn't providing anything in the way of further details with these two shots, but we've learned at least a couple of things about the car shown here. First off, the example seen in these images is fitted with the optional Z51 Performance Package - something that isn't immediately evident because there's no sign of the coupe model's prominent ductwork on its rear haunches. In order to accommodate the power folding hard tonneau cover, the vents that feed the transmission and differential coolers have been relocated to the underside of the car. The dark paint color on this example also does a good job of muting the contrasting black front fender vents and hood opening - Z51-spec design details that have proven to be somewhat controversial.
One other thing to note: These two shots also display the Stingray wearing different alloy wheels than the split five-spoke design shown at the hardtop's Detroit Auto Show unveiling in January. The simpler, thin five-spoke wheels should do a good job of showing off the Z51's upgraded brakes, and they'll be optional on the coupe as well.
