They are still out there..... Barn finds, original drivers. This one is an original driver. Needs restoration of course, but it's a car you can drive to work & restore it on your driveway or in the garage. I bought it about four months ago intending to do just that, but i experienced some health problems & i need to let it go.
139 k miles, 45 years, & it looks like it's had a lot of care. Quadrajet on a 327, engine numbers match, turbo 350 transmission, power windows, tilt wheel, a/c (updated to 134a), power steering, power brakes. It runs great, shifts good, no rattles, noises or diving or jerking. The engine is pretty much noisesless, no lifter rattle, but it does smoke now, a condition i'm attributing to the car sitting for four months. It didn't smoke when i bought it & drove it about six miles. I'm thinking it need valve seals replaced. Oh yes, it does have the double hump castings on the heads.
As you can see, although it does have some surface rusting on the right front fender & around the the rear glass frame, it is remarkably rust free. Floorpans & everything underneath is rust free, also. Looks like it had a repaint of original color twenty or thirty years ago. There is body damage to the tops of the rear fenders i tried to bring out in the pix, not serious, but it probably brought about the repaint when it was repaired. At this point bondo is chipping & flaking off these areas. I consider it not serious taking into account this car will most certainly receive a new paint job at some point with it's new owner. The interior is all original, but it is sunbaked & the fabric on the seats is deteriorating & crumbling.
Power windows work fine, & aside from the crumbly interior, it's a real joy to drive. Starts easy, (gotta pump it ), has plenty of power, does not overheat. One more thing, it has the original owners manual & protect o plate "credit card".
Now for the business stuff. $500 is due within 48 hrs of the end of auction, & balance will be wired to my bank account. Or you can show up with the balance in cash & a flatbed truck & i'll give you the car & the clear title. Absolutely no cashiers checks. Transport & delivery is the responsibility of the buyer. If you would like to talk in person, contact me through the ebay message system & i'll send my cel phone number.

Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506
Thu, 02 May 2013With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.
First privately owned Corvette Stingray blitzes 1/4 mile in 12.23 at 114.88 mph
Tue, 01 Oct 2013Chevrolet's latest road rocket, the Corvette Stingray, is a very quick car. If one needs further proof of that, we recommend they take a look at this video from Hennessey of what is claimed to be the first privately owned C7 Corvette to make a pass down the quarter mile. Not just any quarter mile, mind, this black C7 blitzed its way down the tuner's primary testing dragstrip. The Chevrolet ran the quarter in just 12.23 seconds at 114.88 miles per hour. That is a very quick time for a stock car.
Equipped with the Z51 package and a six-speed automatic transmission, not only does the C7 run a solid time, but it does so with little to no drama. That won't last though, as Hennessey will likely return it to its owner with far more power - we just hope they show a drag run of the completed product. Take a look below to watch the C7's 12.23-second run on video.

Four recreational vehicle companies in Texas have settled with the EPA over illegal import and sale of off-road vehicles. The 4,000-plus Hammerhead brand vehicles in question were imported without the proper certification, a violation of the Clean Air Act. Some vehicles lacked proper emission control equipment or were manufactured by a company not listed on the certificate application. The settlement totals $560,000 in civil penalties for the companies involved. Read more from the EPA. The Iowa Supreme Court has upheld the state's natural gas tax, which was challenged by the ethanol industry. Ethanol producers, which use natural gas to make ethanol, argued the complicated tax was unconstitutional, as it forced certain plants to pay more than their competitors. Taxes vary by location, and some plants have to tap into interstate pipelines at much higher tax rates rather than get it from a local utility. Now, ethanol producers will work to change the law. "My hope is that people understand that, something may be constitutional but that doesn't make it good public policy," says Iowa Renewable Fuels Association Executive Director Monte Shaw.

Valeo says Audi will launch a vehicle using its electric supercharger next year, with other reports suggesting that car will be the Audi Q7. The company says other unspecified automakers will also use the technology in their vehicles. While the electric supercharger adds to the vehicle's cost and electric energy use, it can improve fuel economy by as much as 20 percent. Read more at Automotive News Europe.
