I am listing this Corvette for its second owner. He purchased it in 1969 from the original owner. At the time of his purchase, it had about 25,000 original miles. He has owned and maintained it since and is  selling it because he now drives it very little. I inspected the car today and found it to be an very good condition with some usual minor cosmetic issues. The paint is very good overall with a few small chips. The bumpers look good, but could stand to be rechromed. The interior is entirely original showing no abnormal wear. I have experience judging at shows and would consider this to be a good honest car needing only minor restoration, and one that is not often found and highly desirable. 

After the seller purchased the car, he removed the 427 engine because he wanted to save it. He installed a 454 at that time, and it remains in the car and runs well. The 427 was kept and is included with the car. It has had the heads rebuilt with hardened valve seats. The owner has  kept any original parts that were replaced over the years and will include them also. Anything such as the stock chrome distributor cover not shown in the pictures is present. The original steel wheels are also included in addition to the knockoff cast 
aluminum aftermarket wheels on the car.   
The description of the car is as follows: The original factory color is sun flower yellow. The interior is black and all original. Options and features include AO1 soft ray tinted glass,CO7 auxiliary hardtop, F41 special front and rear suspension, 4-speed manual transmission,  G81 positraction rear axle 3.70, J50 power brakes(dual master cylinder), J56 special heavy-duty brakes, K66 transistor ignition, L72 425 HP 4-barrel 427 engine, N32 Teakwood steering wheel, N36 telescopic steering wheel, U69 AM/FM pushbutton radio with power antenna, and stock 4 core radiator.                                                                                                                                                                                                               Conditions of purchase: The winning bidder will pay a 5% nonrefundable deposit within 48 hours of the auction's close by paypal. Balance of the purchase price will be payable in cash or cashier's check upon pickup of the vehicle within a week of the auction's close. Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer.                                                                                     I will be happy to answer any questions to the best of my ability.

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]

Sun, 26 Jan 2014

If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.

Chevy shows much-improved 2014 Corvette interior in new video

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

If you want a closer look at what went into designing and building the interior for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, we've got just the thing. General Motors has released a new video detailing the cabin's evolution from conception to execution, complete with commentary from Ryan Vaughn, performance car interior design manager with Chevrolet. The quick clip details how manufacturing, engineering and design within General Motors worked together from the first sketches to ensure no compromises had to be made later down the line. How novel.
With plenty of hides traced with contrast stitching and available real carbon fiber trim, the cabin looks to be a few hundred miles ahead of the C6. Given how readily critics derided the previous generation for its cabin, the C7 should make writers work a little harder to find something to complain about. Check out the video below for yourself.
