1964 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Roadster/Convertible
This is the quintessential driver quality C2 Corvette Roadster! Beautiful color combination that demands attention
everywhere it goes. I purchased the car from a older gentleman earlier this year who was moving to Nevada and was
unable to bring the car with him. He had owned the car for the past 20years. If he was lucky he was able to put on
a few hundred miles on in a year. I have had the opportunity to drive the car this year and put on well over 2,500+
miles. From cruises in town to 4-5hour round trips to Door County Wisconsin the car has never let me down. I am
reluctant to sell it however another classic car has gained my interest and I simply do not have the garage space
for the both of them.
ENGINE: The engine is known to be a factory replacement 327ci. The casting #'s match a 62'-67' 327. As for the
rest of the engine compartment it has aluminum intake manifold and valve covers. Most other engine components are
original type. The engine compartment is clean and well serviced. I do have receipts for the engine being rebuilt
by a classic car restoration shop in 2008 about 5-6k miles ago.
TRANSMISSION: 4-speed manual Muncie transmission with hurst shifter.
SUSPENSION: The suspension is solid and claimed to be in very-good un-restored condition. Suspension components for
the most part are original. This was very important to me and I had the car inspected prior to me purchasing it for
peace of mind. No worries here!
As for the rest of the car the major interior parts carpets, seats, and door panels are in very good condition. The
gauges, radio, glove box, dash, seat belts, and trim all fit well. The original clock is hidden behind a cover. The
clock could use a rebuild and some tlc. The radio is inoperative and I have not addressed that issue. All gauges
work to my knowledge with the exception of the gas gauge. It has a tendency to read half or 3/4's when it's full
and correct at certain times. The gas tank itself is relatively new and is able to burn pump 91/93 premium fuel.
The exterior of the car is very presentable and grabs attention with the tan interior combination. For the most
part there is no spider cracking or major imperfections. There is scratch or knick here or there however the paint
is in overall good condition for its age. Chrome also is in good condition with little to no oxidization and normal
pitting. There is a painted to match hardtop that compliments the car very nicely. The hardtop is in good shape and
fits fairly well. One could replace weather-strips down the road for better fitment however this didn't bother me.
One of my favorites is the tan soft-top. The soft-top is in excellent shape and was recently replaced including all
new hardware, nuts & bolts. Overall this is not your frame-off restoration 6 figure car.

Cadillac Celestiq, Lyriq, Hummer, other future GM electric cars: Here's everything we saw at ‘EV Day’
Wed, Mar 4 2020WARREN, Mich. — Today, General Motors held an “EV Day” event at its Warren, Michigan, campus to present its new “Ultium” battery technology, modular electric vehicle architecture and soon-to-come electric vehicles. Unfortunately, we were forbidden from bringing cameras into the event, so while we canÂ’t show you what we saw, we can tell you more about it. While we saw the previously teased Cadillac EV (which we now know to be called the Lyriq) and the GMC Hummer pickup teased during the Super Bowl, there were a number of other future cars at the event, which GM President Mark Reuss assured us are all real vehicles in the works. The biggest surprise came at the end of the event, though, in the Cadillac Celestiq electric sedan, which Reuss described as a future flagship that would be hand-built “very locally.” It had been hiding under a dark sheet all morning, with the front and rear illuminated Cadillac emblems shining from underneath. When the wraps came off, we saw a long, white, four-seat fastback sedan. The 23-inch wheels were pushed out to the very corners of the car, giving it what appeared to be a very long wheelbase. The model on the stage had no side mirrors or visible door handles. The grille mirrored that of the Lyriq crossover next to it, with integrated lighting in lieu of the usual mesh or slats youÂ’d see in an internal combustion car. The entire roof, all the way until it tapered to the tail of the vehicle, was tinted glass. In back, vertical tail lighting ran down the C-pillar before turning rearward across the top of the trunk. Inside, everything below the beltline of the windows — essentially all but the headrests and top portion of the steering wheel, was hidden from view. Behind the Celestiq, a large digital display showed a rendering of its interior. The dash consists of a pillar-to-pillar curved LED display serving as both instrument panel and infotainment system. Protruding forward between the front seats was another touchscreen that appeared to house some more controls, with open area, probably for storage, below it. The rear seats had the same sort of touchscreen between them. Built into the back of the front seats were a pair of rear-seat entertainment screens, much like we saw in the Lyriq. The door panels blended wood, metal and animated lighting to give character and a sense of opulence. GM interior design manager Tristan Murphy was on hand to tell us a bit more about the Celestiq.
No, Cadillac is not killing its flagship CT6 sedan
Sat, Jul 22 2017Mark Twain never actually said that reports of his death had been greatly exaggerated. But if the Cadillac CT6 could talk, those are the exact words it would use. Speaking to Jalopnik, Cadillac chief Johan de Nysschen confirmed, emphatically, "There is absolutely no plan, at all, to cancel the CT6." In fact, says de Nysschen, the CT6 will soon be the beneficiary of significant investment. "The [CT6] forms a very important part of our product strategy going forward for the brand. The car also has a very major contribution to make to the shaping of brand perceptions, and the transformational process that Cadillac is undergoing." For instance, expect the CT6 to spearhead General Motors' most advanced forays into self-driving automobile technology. Interestingly, though, the Cadillac ATS and CTS sedans probably won't live past their current generations as the automaker 're-balances its sedan portfolio.' Replacement models are "in development" right now, says de Nysschen, which will "much more clearly separate the market position, both in terms of target customer demographics, in terms of market segments and in terms of price points between these three sedan lineups." So, that's confirmation that the Cadillac CT6 is going to stick around for a while. But what of other models cited by Reuters to potentially be killed, like the Buick LaCrosse and Chevy Impala and Volt? Read our take on that here, but suffice it to say that we don't think they're in danger, either.

C7 Corvette turbo with 1,000 horsepower promised from Hennessey
Mon, 25 Feb 2013If you can't wait for the next-generation Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Hennessey says they will have you covered. The Texas-based company has announced it will offer a spate of upgrades for the 2014 Corvette ranging from a range of bolt-on options all the way up to a 1,000-horsepower, twin-turbo system. Buyers can start with a cold air intake, cat-back exhaust or stainless steel long-tube headers, but Hennessey says it will also offer up three stages of forced induction mayhem should those bits and baubles not provide enough thrust.
Those choices start with a supercharger system good for up to 700 hp, though Hennessey will gladly ditch the blower in favor of two turbos. Doing so will spin the crank to the tune of 800 horsepower all the way up to a certifiably ludicrous 1,000 ponies. There's no word on how much these tricks will cost you - or when they will be available, as we're guessing they haven't gotten their hands on the car yet - but you can head over to the Hennessey site to drop them a line if you're curious.
