Trim: coupe
A possible "One of one" 1964 Corvette Coupe. One of the rarest air conditioned cars ever made. This is possibly the only car built the with rare option combination. 365hp cars with a/c are rare, but then throw in that this one is one of 552 cars built with transistorized ignition and you have a super rare car. This car was built Silver Blue with dark blue interior. Car retains most all of its interior. Light roll over in the early 70s, this car was never repaired, so it is a very original car Due to this, the car still has the original engine, transmission and rear end. The car also has the TI box and distributor. The dash has never been out of the car and retains all of the air conditioning equipment and duct work. I took this car to the frame shop and found out that not only is it straight, the frame guy stated that it is the best old car frame he has seen in 20 years! He said there are no bends, jack marks, or any rust other than very light surface rust. The bird cage has very little to no rust and the side glasses are in good condition. Other than the obvious fiberglass body parts, bumpers and emblems the only parts that I know of that are missing are the front and rear glass, cylinder heads, carburator and alternator. I am sure there are other small parts missing, however, these are most likely things that would be replaced in a restoration anyway. I also have parts for the car that are included that aren't pictured such as the headlight assemblies with original motors. This car will be an easy restoration because almost all of the parts are there and the damage done in the accident was mostly fiberglass. I purchased this car to restore for myself but because customer cars come first I am offering it up for sale as is. We are a full service corvette shop and can do all or part of the work to bring this car back to as new condition. You can check out our website to see the quality of work we perform at www.nuvintagecorvettes.com. The car is being sold as is, however, we have all of the high quality Sermersheim fiberglass parts in stock as well as complete Al Knoch interior parts needed to restore this car that can be sold seperately to the winning bidder (installed or not). Buy this 64 now and have it completed in time for the 60th anniversary reunion at Corvettes at Carlisle in August 2014! If you want a 64 in your midyear collection or desire an especially rare midyear corvette, then jump on this one! It's highly unlikely that you will find another 64 this rare with these options. Please feel free to email with any questions you may have. I want all bidders to feel as confident as I do as to the originality of this car. Good luck and happy bidding!

Question of the Day: What's the most irritating car name?
Wed, Mar 9 2016You hear a lot about how the Chevrolet Nova was a sales flop in Mexico because "No va" means "it doesn't go" in Spanish; in fact, the Nova sold pretty well south of the border, and in any case most Spanish-speakers know that "Nova" means "new" in Latin and Portuguese. However, General Motors doesn't deserve to be let off the hook for bad car names, because the Oldsmobile Achieva— no doubt inspired by the excruciating "coffee achievers" ads of the 1980s— scrapes the biggest fingernails down the screechiest chalkboard in the US-market car-name world. That is, unless you think Daihatsu's incomprehensible choice of Charade was worse. Meanwhile, Japanese car buyers could get machines with cool names like Mazda Bongo Friendee or Honda Life Dunk. It's just not fair! So, what car name drives you the craziest? Related Video: Auto News Design/Style Chevrolet Honda Mazda Daihatsu Automotive History questions car names
NHTSA, IIHS, and 20 automakers to make auto braking standard by 2022
Thu, Mar 17 2016The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and virtually every automaker in the US domestic market have announced a pact to make automatic emergency braking standard by 2022. Here's the full rundown of companies involved: BMW, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar Land Rover, Kia, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru, Tesla, Toyota, Volkswagen, and Volvo (not to mention the brands that fall under each automaker's respective umbrella). Like we reported yesterday, AEB will be as ubiquitous in the future as traction and stability control are today. But the thing to note here is that this is not a governmental mandate. It's truly an agreement between automakers and the government, a fact that NHTSA claims will lead to widespread adoption three years sooner than a formal rule. That fact in itself should prevent up to 28,000 crashes and 12,000 injuries. The agreement will come into effect in two waves. For the majority of vehicles on the road – those with gross vehicle weights below 8,500 pounds – AEB will need to be standard equipment by September 1, 2022. Vehicles between 8,501 and 10,000 pounds will have an extra three years to offer AEB. "It's an exciting time for vehicle safety. By proactively making emergency braking systems standard equipment on their vehicles, these 20 automakers will help prevent thousands of crashes and save lives," said Secretary of Transportation Anthony Foxx said in an official statement. "It's a win for safety and a win for consumers." Read on for the official press release from NHTSA.

Automakers making the commitment are Audi, BMW, FCA US LLC, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Jaguar Land Rover, Kia, Maserati, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi Motors, Nissan, Porsche, Subaru, Tesla Motors Inc., Toyota, Volkswagen and Volvo Car USA.
2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers
Fri, 11 Apr 2014
Supercharged, 6.2-liter V8? Check. Seven-speed manual? Check. Obsession with weight? Check.
What did you expect when Chevrolet said it was bringing a new Corvette variant to the 2014 New York Auto Show? Maybe a sticker and trim package, like the C6 Corvette Grand Sport or a tie-in deal like the Black Widow car from Chicago? On the opposite end, maybe there was an even more hardcore Z06 waiting in the wings. Who knew?
