Visually the Corvette changed very little in its first three years of production. However 1956 will mark the Corvettes first major stylistic makeover. Retaining the aggressive grill design of the prior models, the frontal styling of the 1956 was modified significantly, with new fender accommodating chrome around headlights mounted higher and no longer covered by prior wire mesh stone guards. For the first time the Corvette received his new iconic side coves and clean sloping rear fenders with neatly integrated taillight. The Corvette also received a pair of roll up windows, technically changing the car from a roadster to a convertible body style. 2 265 cubic inch V-8 engines were now available, reflecting the relentless development that had just begun on the soon to be legendary small block V-8 engine. The bulk of the 1956 Corvette production Numbering 3080 cars, was equipped with the duel quad solid lifter engine producing a stout 225 brake horsepower.
The car offered here is just that engine and is finished in onyx black with silver coves and red interior, as presented following a body off professional restoration from Arizona a few years ago. In addition to the duel quad engine the Corvette is equipped with the three speed close ratio manual transmission that was standard in 1956 . AM/FM cassette radio (after market). All of the cars gauges work including the clock, and the interior is of the correct pattern. The wheels are shod in white wall radial tires for improve modern drivability. The car is in outstanding condition and runs and drives as well as it looks. This car has the correct all original drive train engine,tranny rear end etc. The corvette being from out west the all painted chassis looks as correct and good as the day it rolled off the assembly line. there is nothing on this car that doesn't appear new or as well as everything working correctly. The bright work shines like new. Here is an opportunity to win this blue chip piece of history corvette that you can enjoy as well as a good solid investment.
If you found this same car, Turbo-Fire 225 hp 265 cubic inch engine OHV-V8 with dual four barrel carburetors and solid lifter camshaft, three speed close ratio manual transmission, independent front suspension,semi elliptical leaf springs, and four wheel hydraulic drum brakes that just came off a rotisserie body off restoration like the one offered here you would be paying 100,000 dollars and up. This car appears to be as close to a fresh restoration as could be with all the bugs worked out with just a few thousand miles since restoration.

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.

Here are a few of our automotive guilty pleasures

Tue, Jun 23 2020

It goes without saying, but I'll say it anyway. The world is full of cars, and just about as many of them are bad as are good. It's pretty easy to pick which fall into each category after giving them a thorough walkaround and, more important, driving them. But every once in a while, an automobile straddles the line somehow between good and bad — it may be hideously overpriced and therefore a marketplace failure, it may be stupid quick in a straight line but handles like a drunken noodle, or it may have an interior that looks like it was made of a mess of injection-molded Legos. Heck, maybe all three. Yet there's something special about some bad cars that actually makes them likable. The idea for this list came to me while I was browsing classified ads for cars within a few hundred miles of my house. I ran across a few oddballs and shared them with the rest of the team in our online chat room. It turns out several of us have a few automotive guilty pleasures that we're willing to admit to. We'll call a few of 'em out here. Feel free to share some of your own in the comments below. Dodge Neon SRT4 and Caliber SRT4: The Neon was a passably good and plucky little city car when it debuted for the 1995 model year. The Caliber, which replaced the aging Neon and sought to replace its friendly marketing campaign with something more sinister, was panned from the very outset for its cheap interior furnishings, but at least offered some decent utility with its hatchback shape. What the two little front-wheel-drive Dodge models have in common are their rip-roarin' SRT variants, each powered by turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines. Known for their propensity to light up their front tires under hard acceleration, the duo were legitimately quick and fun to drive with a fantastic turbo whoosh that called to mind the early days of turbo technology. — Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski  Chevrolet HHR SS: Chevy's HHR SS came out early in my automotive journalism career, and I have fond memories of the press launch (and having dinner with Bob Lutz) that included plenty of tire-smoking hard launches and demonstrations of the manual transmission's no-lift shift feature. The 260-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder was and still is a spunky little engine that makes the retro-inspired HHR a fun little hot rod that works quite well as a fun little daily driver.

Chevy Gives World Series MVP Madison Bumgarner A Recalled Truck

Thu, Oct 30 2014

Last night must have seemed like a dream come true for San Francisco Giants pitcher Madison Bumgarner. He helped his team win its third World Series Championship in four years, earned MVP status and was given a brand new 2015 Chevrolet Colorado. Bumgarner might want to hold off on taking a victory lap in his new truck however. The Colorado is currently under recall. General Motors issued a stop-delivery order earlier this month to fix the truck's air bag connectors, which were wired improperly during the manufacturing process. The faulty wiring can cause the system to deploy incorrectly. Only 138 customers have received their Chevrolet trucks, the rest were caught and repaired either in the plant or on their way to dealerships and show rooms. Recalls Chevrolet world series
