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.

Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.

GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles

Fri, 04 Jan 2013

As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
Scroll down for the full list of GM's million 30+ mpg cars as well as an informative press release.
