This beautiful, original machine has been in my possession for over 35 years. Unfortunately, it's time for me to
part with her, a tough decision I might add. It's been driven a few hundred miles each summer and then carefully
stored through every winter. I have not had the hardtop on the car in over 20 years. It's been wrapped and placed
in storage. Summertime simply requires the top to be down, thus the hardtop has remained in storage. Last Fall
along came a gift from 50 years ago, Agent Orange-caused cancer. I'm doing well but my leg no longer allows me to
get in and out of the car very easily. It's time for others to enjoy it.
The photos are not retouched nor altered. They were uploaded at full resolution so you can better review its
condition. If you are interested I'll email additional images, there are more than what is displayed in this ad.
All numbers match and of course, the engine is the original. The Condition Description above and the following
comments are from the professional appraiser.
Appraisers Summary/Comments: "This car remains in very good basically unmolested condition with the exception of a
few somewhat easily obtainable parts. For the Corvette purists, cars like this are hard to find. Even the paint
remains acceptable and I certainly would not repaint it. The 340hp engine is also very desirable and is only topped
by the fuel injected 360hp version. Internet sources show me that 6978 Corvettes were produced this year with the
340hp engine. The car does deserve a premium for its originality. I will place an overall condition code on this
vehicle of #3. (Condition code: #1 Excellent, #2 Fine, #3 Very Good, #4 Good/Fair, #5 Poor/Restorable, #6 Parts
Car)."
And the lucky person who chooses to cruise in this wonderful car will receive a digital copy of "Little Red
Corvette" at no extra cost. Really!

Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
2014 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra full configurators truck in
Sat, 15 Jun 2013You can now put prices to your wildest option-sheet dreams of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. A microsite for the full-size pickup truck twins has been up since January, and now the full-blown configurator is live and ready to take your virtual orders. The only two chassis configurations available at the moment are the Crew Cab with either a short or standard bed - Regular and Double Cab versions will come later. In Silverado flavors that will run you $32,710 for the short box, $33,010 for the standard box, while the Sierra adds a $1,500 premium to both of those prices, and destination and handling for both models adds another $995.
Since these are American pickups the list of modifications is lengthy, but we added $11,450 in just two steps by starting with the Silverado Crew Cab and standard bed, then checking four-wheel drive and the LTZ Z71 package. Our final truck, resplendent in Brownstone Metallic paint, heated and cooled Cocoa/Dune perforated leather seating and tasty details like chrome recovery hooks, and engine block heater and LED cargo box lighting, rang up $57,285 at the candy store.
They'll be on dealer lots sometime this summer, so now's a good time to start practicing your box-checking.
