Lithonia, Georgia, United States
Awesome 1964 Corvette Convertible with 327 cu in/365 hp and Factory 4 Speed Transmission
This cool 1964 Corvette was built at the St Louis factory in May of 1964. It was originally shipped with Black and
Pale Silver interior (491AE) and an exterior color of Satin Silver (940AA). It came with a 327 cu 365 HP engine and
4 speed transmission.
The car underwent its 1st restoration (about 20 years ago) the exterior color was changed from Satin Silver to Red.
The interior was also changed from Black and Pale Silver to all Black and included new carpet, door panels and seat
covers. Since the 1st restoration the driver's side seat cover, drivers side carpet and dash pad is showing some
wear and is all that is needed to bring the interior back to perfect condition. The interior used in the 1st
restoration is a high quality original style that is black and the carpets are 80/20 loop pile.
The car has recently been freshened (about 2 years ago) and received lots of new parts and
trim, including a new White convertible top, new lining to the Hardtop, complete under the hood restoration, new
tires, new carburetor and a fresh beautiful two stage base coat/clear coat Red paint job. With the exceptions
mentioned above, the interior is an original type interior, it has some minor wear and tear but with
the exceptions noted, the interior is in very good shape.
The motor block in the car is not the correct numbers matching block. the original block spun a main bearing and it
ruined the factory block, it was replaced with a 1968 vintage 327/300 hp corvette block. (block # 3782870 HE) The
cars original 461 double hump fuel heads (3782461), aluminum (Winters) intake (3849804), new original type Holly
Carburetor and the original tach drive distributor are all on the car.
The M21 Muncie 4 Speed transmission is original to the car. It shifts and runs smoothly with no noise of any kind.
The shifter is a Hurst replacement shifter and is smooth shifting.
The car is equipped with the original exhaust manifolds and side pipes that sound very cool when you rumble down
the streets.
This car runs very strong but drives and handles great, the cooling system keeps the car at the correct temperature
and the oil pressure is great.
This car has been totally restored from ground up since its birth with just about everything on the car new or
refurbished. The car is sitting on a perfect set of 15” Kelsey Hayes aluminum wheels with real knock offs (the
brass dead blow hammer is included with the car). The tires are new Firestone with the narrow style white walls
15” X P215/70R.

2015 Chevrolet Cruze spied on its home turf
Tue, 23 Apr 2013The next Chevrolet Cruze isn't set to go into production for about another year, and we're just now seeing prototypes of the new compact running around here in the States. Not much more has been revealed since we saw the car blasting through the snow in Europe, but we can still clearly see new design elements like the larger grille, slimmer headlamps and redesigned taillamps.
Our spy photographers worked up a composite image of this Cruze prototype alongside the current model, and here, we can clearly see some big visual changes are in store for the new model. The 2015 Cruze's hood slopes downward more dramatically, the windshield is more heavily raked, and the roofline looks more fluid overall. The next-generation Cruze will ride on the new global Delta platform that will also underpin other General Motors vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt and Equinox.
As for what's under the hood, we expect the normal range of gasoline four-cylinder engines (both naturally aspirated and turbocharged), and the compact's new turbodiesel four should carry over, as well. Have a look at the full brace of spy photos in the gallery above.
First-edition Detroit muscle raises millions for charity at Barrett-Jackson
Mon, Jan 19 2015Amidst all the classic metal crossing the auction block each year in Scottsdale, AZ, Detroit automakers have a tradition of donating the first examples of their most enticing new muscle cars, with the proceeds of their sales going towards worthwhile charities. This year, Barrett-Jackson handled three noteworthy examples. The highest price among them was the first Ford Shelby GT350R Mustang with the VIN #001, which raised $1 million for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. General Motors donated the first new Chevy Corvette Z06 Convertible, the first retail example of the droptop supercar garnering $800,000 for the United Way. Along with the Z06, GM also donated the first new 2016 Cadillac CTS-V sedan, which brought in $170,000 for Detroit's College for Creative Studies. Although these were the headline Motown muscle machines furnished by the automakers themselves, they weren't the only vehicles auctioned off for worthy causes. A 1950 GM Futurliner bus donated by collector Ron Pratte led the charge when it brought in $4.65 million for the Armed Forces Foundation. Other lots included a custom Jeep Wrangler donated by SEMA ($85k), a new M5 donated by BMW ($800k), a '79 Oldsmobile Cutlass Hurst ($140k), '39 Cadillac LaSalle C-Hawk ($410k), Jeff Gordon's 1999 NASCAR-spec Chevy Monte Carlo ($500k) and a Victory Cross Country 8-Ball motorcycle ($180k). All told, the charity lots raised over $8.7 million for local and national charities.

GM announces net 220 job increase as Trump visits Michigan
Wed, Mar 15 2017GM announced today that about 900 jobs would be added (or, importantly, retained) ahead of President Trump's arrival in Michigan, where he is expected to discuss his plan to roll back fuel economy standards. The timing of the announcement is almost certainly not coincidental, as appending it to a Trump visit gives it a higher profile and dovetails with the President's jobs agenda. It's less likely the decision itself was made for those reasons, but the free PR boost is a nice bonus. As for those 900 jobs themselves, they aren't all new jobs. The only net gain is approximately 220 jobs at the Romulus Powertrain Plant, which produces the 10-speed automatic transmission that's proliferating through the company's lineup. The 180 jobs at Flint Assembly and 500 jobs at Lansing Delta Township are retained jobs – that is to say, spots the company found for workers who would otherwise have been laid off. By the way, the Flint jobs will help with production of heavy-duty pickups, and the Lansing jobs are to produce the Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave. Finding jobs for manufacturing workers in the auto sector, whether new or retained, is admirable. No matter how GM couches it, the company has created or retained a total of 7,000 jobs this year, and its total reinvestment in US production is around $1 billion. But these decisions are business ones, not political ones – timing the announcements to make them seem inspired by economic policy, or the political situation, is simply smart PR.
