You are viewing a pretty special Laguna Blue 1966 Corvette Sting Ray coupe. It features a balanced and blueprinted
matching numbers 327 cubic inch, 300 hp V8 mated to the legendary Powerglide automatic transmission. What makes
this particular Corvette special beyond its very original condition is the unusual combination of features found on
this Sting Ray. It will be very difficult to find another 1966 Corvette finished in Laguna blue that also features
an automatic transmission, factory sidepipe exhaust, original teak steering wheel AND original knock--off wheels.
The wheels alone, if you were to shop for them separately, would be valued somewhere between $10-15,000.
Here is a link to a photo album of many close-up photos of the undercarriage plus several photos of the engine
while in the rebuilding process:
This Corvette is ready to be driven and enjoyed as its being offered. The motor is very strong. I've put about
200 miles on the car during my ownership and it has been nothing but pure Corvette performance all the way. The
paint is either original or a very old respray, so it has a wonderful patina that is one of the main reasons I was
attracted to this car. And Laguna blue is just a stunning color for the coupe, especially when you consider its
rarity. The only items I've found to be in need of attention are the windshield wipers, which don't work at all,
and the stereo, which does not come up to full volume. In my experience, this usually means the speaker has
decided to retire after 50 years. It is currently riding on Michelin X tires that I can only assume were fitted
sometime in the mid-70's. I've included photos of the cowl tag and the numbers on the motor for your convenience.
Please let me know if you have any specific questions I can answer for you, or if you'd like to come out and look
it over in person, please let me know. And interesting trades are always welcome. I'm particularly into Mopars
and Cadillacs, but I love all classic cars.

7 major automakers to build open EV charging network

Wed, Jul 26 2023

A new joint venture established by BMW, GM, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Mercedes-Benz and Stellantis will build a new North American electric vehicle charging network on a scale designed to compete with Tesla's industry-benchmark Supercharger network. The 30,000-plus planned new chargers will accommodate both Tesla's almost-standard North American Charging System (NACS) and existing automakers' Combined Charging System (CCS) options, effectively guaranteeing compatibility with the vast majority of current and upcoming electric models — whether they're from one of the involved automakers or not.  "With the generational investments in public charging being implemented on the Federal and State level, the joint venture will leverage public and private funds to accelerate the installation of high-powered charging for customers. The new charging stations will be accessible to all battery-powered electric vehicles from any automaker using Combined Charging System (CCS) or North American Charging Standard (NACS) and are expected to meet or exceed the spirit and requirements of the U.S. National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) program." Critically, the automakers involved will have a say in how the charging tech is implemented, guaranteeing that the hardware will play nicely with each automaker's in-house charging systems. Hyundai and Kia, for example, were hesitant to jump on board the Tesla NACS bandwagon earlier this year over concerns that the Supercharger network is insufficient for powering the two automakers' 800-volt charging systems; similar tech is used by Volkswagen and Porsche.  In addition to providing much-needed capacity and high-output charging for America's growing fleet of electric cars and trucks, the new network will integrate seamlessly with each automaker's in-app and in-vehicle features, rather than forcing customers to use third-party tools and payment systems, as is the case with some existing public charging infrastructure.  "The functions and services of the network will allow for seamless integration with participating automakersÂ’ in-vehicle and in-app experiences, including reservations, intelligent route planning and navigation, payment applications, transparent energy management and more. In addition, the network will leverage Plug & Charge technology to further enhance the customer experience," the announcement said.

GM slashes prices in China as sales falter

Thu, May 14 2015

Buying a vehicle from General Motors' stable of brands might be a lot cheaper in the near future – at least for customers in China. The effort comes as GM hopes to keep sales there growing, and the decision alludes to yet another sign that the Asian country no longer has the booming auto market of past years. GM and its Chinese joint venture partner SAIC are slashing prices by as much as the equivalent to $8,700 on 40 models from Buick, Chevrolet, and Cadillac, according to The Detroit News. Across all of automaker's nameplates, the overall sales dipped in China in April by 0.4 percent to 258,484 vehicles. Among the drops, Buick was down 8.5 percent, and Chevy shrunk 5.6 percent. Caddy's numbers increased 4.6 percent for the month, though. Buick remains a popular brand in the minds of Chinese consumers, but according to The Detroit News domestic automakers there are starting to eat into the dominance of foreign companies in the market. The country remains important for GM, though. Late last year, it outlined a future strategy that included China as a major pillar, including a $14 billion investment to build five new factories and boost sales.
