1970 Chevrolet Corvette 2 door coupe 350/300 Auto. Factory A/C

Mulsanne Blue with Bright Blue Interior

I've owned this car for 20 years and it has been garaged during that period.  I have the tank sticker and it's in good shape.  The car is an older restoration completed in the mid 1990's.

Paint: The car was painted in 1988.  Paint is in good shape but not perfect.  Car is very presentable.

Body:  New Rear Chrome bumpers, Front Bumper and Grills are OK, but not perfect, not broken - needs restoration.  New tail lights, some new weather-stripping.  Front Glass was replaced, door glass is original with Astro ventilation embossed into the glass

Brakes:  Rebuilt all calipers, brake hoses, rotors and brake master cylinder.  No vacuum assist.

Tires:  These were a special run of Goodyear tires for honoring racing in 1995.  They have a yellow lettering on the outside and words Eagle #1.  These tires are getting old, but no cracks and probably have 3000 miles on these since installed.

Engine: Great condition. Rebuilt to factory spec's in 2011.  HEI distributor for reliability was installed.  Factory A/C, but does not function.  I believe it works, but needs to be rebuilt.  Everything installed for A/C, just no cold air.  No smoke, plenty of power, great compression.

Numbers:  The car is a numbers matching car.  Over the years of working on this car I have done research and I have found conflicting info on the engine block.  The heads, exhaust manifolds, distributor all have a 1970 date code that is close to the build date.  The engine block does not, instead I believe it could be a factory replacement 350, but I am not sure

Transmission: Great condition.  Rebuilt with a small shift kit in 2011, new stall converter.

Power Steering:  Rebuilt Pump and Cylinder

Suspension:  Great condition. New Springs front and rear, rebuilt front suspension.  No rust on frame or anywhere.

Interior:  Very good condition.  Seats have been recovered to factory original, carpets (now stained) , door panels, rear panels, dash panels have all been replaced.  Dash cover, painted to match.  All dash gauges work except the clock.  Title reads mileage exempt, but I believe it has 179,xxx miles on the car.  No power locks or power windows.  New heater core - old one cracked and drained on new carpet -

New vacuum lines to front of the car, new light actuators, wiper door actuator and springs

Original Radio, works, new front speakers in dash.

Car easily cranks up and runs great!! 

More pictures are available if needed. 

Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer.  I do have a transport company I have used and they are very reasonable.

Please call Malcolm at 850-528-8865 -- 9AM to 9PM EST.  Serious inquires only please.

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues

Wed, 28 Dec 2011

'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.

Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

When it comes to technology used in racecars, we generally expect it to trickle down to production cars, not the other way around. Well, Pratt & Miller has developed a new rear-facing radar that operates in a similar fashion to what we're used to in modern blind spot detection systems, only it is also capable of tracking cars as they approach and relaying vital information to the driver via a large display screen.
The innovative radar system debuted at last weekend's 12 Hours of Sebring for Corvette Racing, and this system makes perfect sense for endurance races like this since the cars sometimes have to drive through the night and in poor weather conditions.
The radar can detect cars even with poor visibility, and uses easy-to-distinguish symbols for the driver to identify.

GM recalls 8,500 Chevrolet Malibu models for rear suspension glitch

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

According to a letter from General Motors to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, flaws in the build process of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu have led to the recall of 8,519 cars. Units built between December 6, 2011 and January 15, 2013 may have been assembled with rear suspension cradles that had insufficient torque applied to certain bolts. That out-of-spec assembly could lead to issues ranging from slight noises to a loss of vehicle control.
The problem was first noticed in December of last year by a GM test fleet driver and eventually tracked back to the improperly torqued bolts on the suspension cradle assembled through July 2012 by a supplier located not too far from the Malibu's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Since an official NHTSA recall notice has not been issued yet, it isn't clear whether or not Detroit-built Malibus were the only ones affected (the 2013 Malibu is also built at GM's Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, Kansas). Dealers will fix the problem by inspecting vehicles for proper torque specs, retightening if not within specs and, in some cases, perform a rear-wheel alignment.
