Condition: Used: A vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections. ...
I am selling this great-looking vintage car for my neighbor. He has described it to me and I'll try to pass along the information in detail; also, I've taken a lot of detailed photos. But I'll also be glad to pass along contact information so you can talk with him directly, and of course, you are encouraged to come and inspect the car in person before the end of the auction.
As a bit of background, my neighbor is not a dealer. He would like to keep this car - I can tell, it absolutely hurts to put it up for sale! However, he has bills to pay, and needs to see it sold. It's a 1971 Chevelle with 119,359 actual miles. The car was restored 10 years ago, and purchased by a school-teacher. She kept it garaged and took good care of it, but sold it when she changed jobs last year. (Lots of that going around, I'm afraid...) The car is pretty impressive: Original green-on-green (the interior's all original, the paint of course has been re-done), the chrome is all pretty decent but could stand to be buffed out a bit. There are a couple small bubbles or under-paint rust blisters near the driver's-side wheel wells, but nothing major (see photos). We don't think it has ever been wrecked or had any major body work. The paint is professional and looks great!
The motor was overhauled a year ago; the transmission is new. The battery is brand-new; the tires are Cooper Cobra Radials and are almost new (about 95 percent). It has disc brakes, and rally wheels with chrome beauty rings. (Power steering, power brakes.) The suspension has been lowered. This is an original AC car, but the air conditioning is not currently connected - it's in the trunk, ready to be installed. Also in the trunk is a variety of parts and pieces.
The inside of this car will transport you back to 1971! With the exception of the Kenwood CD player/radio, it's pretty much 100 percent original. There is a small hole in the headliner, otherwise it's in incredibly good shape; I also saw one tiny place where an upholstery seam is separating near the bottom of the passenger seat's back (down near the floor), and there's another one above the back arm rest on that side (see photos). Otherwise it is very, very nice. (They don't make seats this comfortable nowadays!) The rear door cranks aren't attached but are both there, the glovebox door needs a latch but is otherwise complete.
Again, please examine the photos carefully, and if you have questions, don't hesitate to ask! I will do my best to answer them, or will refer them to the car's owner. We are located about 10 miles west of Bloomington, Indiana - if you wish to see the car in person, please let me know and I will help you to make arrangements. The seller is motivated, and the reserve is reasonable, we hope this beautiful vehicle will find a new home. I wish all prospective bidders the best of luck!

Dale Earnhardt, Jr. puts his Callaway Corvette and '55 Chevy on eBay
Sat, Jan 24 2015Dale Earnhardt, Jr. has put a couple of his personal cars up for sale on eBay. The first is a 1955 Chevy Bel Air that Junior had reworked by Funkmaster Flex, a bit of a diversion from Flex's more common Ford efforts. Junior's ride has a replacement chassis from Jim Meyer Racing, a 434 small-block tuned by Sharioff Racing to 500 horsepower, and truly thin rubber on what appear to be aluminum billet rims with Junior's former number 8 on the center caps. The interior is all custom and painted to match the outside, and those seats have been completely reupholstered. The second car is a 1999 Callaway C12, the 18th of 19 C12s built that year and featured in a 2002 issue of AutoWeek. It joined Earnhardt's private collection in 2004. Built on the base of a C5 Chevrolet Corvette and using a lot of technical know-how from Callaway's European racing program, the BMW #287 Blue Pearl C12 had its V8 bored out to 6.2 liters and graced with Callaway's Supernatural upgrade; it also has a Callaway coil-over suspension with adjustable dampers. There's new bodywork all around, and when new it cost about $200,000. At the time of writing bidding on the Bel Air was up to $80,100, the C12 was at $63,100. The auction ends Monday morning, and the winning bidders have the option of having their prizes autographed and retrieving the keys from Dale Jr himself if they're willing to go to Moorseville, NC.

A hybrid and electric Corvette, plus we drive the Ioniq 5 | Autoblog Podcast #728
Fri, May 6 2022In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Road Test Editor Zac Palmer. Zac drove the electric 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5, and Greg drove the fire-breathing 2022 Maserati Levante Trofeo. The two dive deep into the relatively heavy news week by starting off with a discussion about the upcoming hybrid Corvette before chatting about what the electric Corvette might be like. They have a chat about the possibility of Porsche and Audi officially joining the Formula 1 field. Then, Greg and Zac get into some quick-hitting news to round out the segment by dissecting the updated Kia Soul (now without a turbo), the 30th Anniversary Edition Land Rover Defender and the new CEO at Aston Martin. Following the news and drive reviews, they rope in Senior Editor, Green John Beltz Snyder to give them a quick download of what went down at the first drive for the 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning. Finally, they reach into the mailbag and answer some questions from someone who is less than pleased about infotainment systems in some new cars. And lastly, the gang hears back from someone they helped out in a prior Spend My Money segment on the podcast. Send us your questions for the Mailbag and Spend My Money at: Podcast@Autoblog.com.

Bob Lutz builds the case for a mid-engined Corvette
Fri, Jan 16 2015Rumors of a mid-engine Corvette are like automotive industry folklore at this point. Every once in a while, news pops up that it might be happening or is under development, but nothing actually ever comes to fruition as something people can actually buy. The latest spy shots strongly suggest a mid-engine 'Vette is in the cards, yet again, possibly for 2018. Now, an op ed by former General Motors executive (and definite performance car fan) Bob Lutz in Road & Track gives the inside scoop on the history of one of these proposals and lays out how to make it happen today. According to Lutz, the company's engineers believed the C6 ZR1 was at the limit for front-engine, rear-wheel drive performance in that package, and the only solution was to move the powerplant behind the driver. Lutz even got then CEO Rick Wagoner on board. The scheme made it at least as far as clay models for mid-engine versions of the 'Vette and Cadillac XLR. Eventually, a lack of money got in the way, though, bringing the project to an end. Lutz puts a lot of faith in GM's current leaders, especially Mary Barra and Mark Reuss. He thinks the chances of a mid-engine 'Vette happening this time are better than 50 percent. The model, rumored to be named Zora, could offer over 700 horsepower in an ultra lightweight body and be priced at about $120,000 to "suck the doors off everybody." Head over to Road & Track to get some insights from this highly respected and entertaining auto industry veteran. Related Video:
