I purchsaed this car in 1984 from a local dealer. the car has been in the family ever since. It has been stored for most of the past 15 years. For the past year I have licensed the car and driven it occasionally. It starts easlily and runs great. In 1986 through 1988 I did extensive work on the vehicle. I installed new upper and lower ball joints and tie rods in the frontend..I intalled stainless steel brake calipers and brake lines and stainless steel exhaust.  Also a high perpormance rear leaf sping.  The body was stripped to the bare friberglass and repainted the original color. The paint is still in excellent condition. Also I installed new carpet. I have receipts for all items.. I cannot confirm that this is the original motor. Based on the engine code it is a 350 cubic inch 300 hp motor which best I can tell the motor is a 70's motor. Might be original motor.The remaining numbers are not present on the engine block. Now the things that the car needs.. The seats are worn and needs recovered.For $700.00 from Zip Corvette you can purchase new seat covers, foam and hardware for both seats.  I do not have the original radio. I installed a am/fm cassette radio years ago. The transmission has a small leak but believe that it is nothing more seious than a pan gasket. The power windows work but I am missing the knobs for the door locks. Everything that needs fixed or repaired is minor compared to the shape of this vehicle.  Tires are in excellent shape. I have a cloth car cover and a nose bra for the car. I would not be afraid to drive this car anywhere. Only has 85,675 miles on car.


On May-28-13 at 09:39:07 PDT, seller added the following information:

I wanted to add some information about the motor and whether it is the original motor. After some research I beleive that this is the original motor. Based on reading I found that in 1970 GM began placing the the vin sequence number in other locations other than the passenger side of the front block. I have yet to find the vin sequence number but I am still searching. The Engine code on the motor is V1217CTG which means that the motor was built in Flint Michigan where vette motors were built and the CTG stands for 1970.  The engine casting mumber is 3970010 which means it is a 350 cubic inch 300 hp. Based on this I believe that the motor matches the car. If I find the vin sequence number I will update the listing.

So, how do you actually pronounce that automaker's name?

Thu, Jan 21 2016

You probably have that friend who always says Porsche wrong, or maybe it's someone who keeps reminding you it's actually two syllables. Whichever side of the pronunciation debate you fall on, you'll find someone to root for in the video above. And before you ask, this was all the video team's idea. So don't get mad at me for being the voice of reason. BMW Chevrolet Hyundai Nissan Rolls-Royce Videos Original Video nissan qashqai

Will Chevy Bolt get Opel badge in Europe?

Sat, Mar 7 2015

General Motors' European plug-in vehicle name may go from A to B. That's because the Chevrolet Bolt could be sold under GM's Opel brand across the Pond, Automotive News Europe says, citing people familiar with the process that it declined to identify. The Ampera, the European version of the Volt extended-range plug-in vehicle, is being phased out due to poor sales. While the Ampera won the European Car of the Year in 2012, its sales have trended well below expectations. That the Bolt would be sold as an Opel hints to us that GM expects to distribute the electric vehicle in far smaller numbers than in the US. The Bolt, which was introduced in January in its concept version at the North American Auto Show in Detroit, will have a single-charge range of about 200 miles. GM representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from AutoblogGeen on Friday afternoon. The car will also have a price tag in the US of about $30,000, factoring in federal-government tax incentives. That's if those tax incentives are still around in 2017, when the Bolt is expected to debut stateside.
