I am offering for sale a 1961 convertible Chevrolet Corvette.  The color of the car is Jewel Blue and only 855 of the 10800 produced this year were this color.  The exterior of the car has the original paint job and is in fair condition. There are some scratches and defects in the paint but the paint is in surprisingly good shape to be vintage. The car has both the original hard top and the soft top.   The interior is black and blue but is not the original interior.

The car is a convertible and is equipped with both tops.  It is also equipped with the original AM radio and the dash has not been molested and is in good shape.  All of the gauges are real glass and work except for the gas, clock, and radio. The engine and brakes were  rebuilt in June 2013, and I have the receipts for the work. The car is running and is drivable.

The car was purchased in 1983 from the original owner and was stored in a metal building from 1983 until 2013.  The odometer is showing 23,999 miles and I was told is the correct mileage.  Since being purchased, I have rebuilt the engine, all of the brake system, and the fuel system.  All of the fluids have been changed and all of the lights are in working order. The car is running and can be driven. 

The car is located in Guntown, Mississippi and can be shown by appointment. My number is 662 871-9299 if you have any specific questions concerning the item.  The car is being sold "as is, where is," and no written, verbal, or implied warranty exist.  The car is being offered locally as well and I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. 

 

THIS IS A NO RESERVE AUCTION and feedback will be left on the buyer. 

 

Payment terms, $500.00 US dollars are to be sent via paypal within 48 hours of the closing of the Auction.  The balance of the Bid is due in CASH when the item is picked up.   I have purchased and sold many cars on line and I am experienced in the closing process. 

This is a wonderful opportunity for a Corvette enthusiast to own a rare piece of automobile history and a beautiful piece of artwork.  Good luck bidders.

So, how do you actually pronounce that automaker's name?

Thu, Jan 21 2016

You probably have that friend who always says Porsche wrong, or maybe it's someone who keeps reminding you it's actually two syllables. Whichever side of the pronunciation debate you fall on, you'll find someone to root for in the video above. And before you ask, this was all the video team's idea. So don't get mad at me for being the voice of reason. BMW Chevrolet Hyundai Nissan Rolls-Royce Videos Original Video nissan qashqai

GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.
