You are viewing my beautiful 1970 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, that was restored just a few years back. This has been a Southern car it's entire life from what I've been told by the previous owners. It is numbers matching with it's original small block 350 engine (badged like a LT-1 with an LT-1 hood...much better looking than the standard hood!) mated to it's 4 speed manual transmission. Factory ignition shielding is in place. Mileage shows as 21,474 but I'm sure has rolled over once. The car is a beautiful Cortez Silver with Black interior. It looks so much better in person than it does in these photos! Great body lines and gaps! The entire interior is quite nice with very little to no wear. Carpets are nice both in the front and in the rear tray area. Straps for the t-tops are present and I have the vinyl covers as well. I also have the original factory radio in a box that will also come with the car. Within the past few weeks I have put brand new tires on the front, a new caliper in the rear, new master cylinder for the brakes, had the carb rebuilt, a new fuel pump & sending unit, and new plugs. Perfect ride height, low and aggressive (not all jacked up in the back like when someone puts on new leaf springs that didn't know what they were doing!). The car was repainted a few years ago when it was restored and it still looks fresh and shiny, with very minor imperfections that are expected from a "driver". There is a small "C" shaped ding in the paint on the top of the rear deck where a small can fell on it (local paint guys said they can match and blend for less than $200, I just didn't get around to it because it never bothered me that much).  All body, door, and window seals were replaced when restoration was done and are still very nice. All glass is nice, with removable rear glass window. Obviously this is a t-top car, and the tops are in great condition inside and out. Appears to have never been in any kind of accident. All chrome is nice. Rally wheels look great. The car runs great and drives down the road nice and straight, and stops on a dime with no weird pulling. Shifts nice with no crunching of synchros. This is a reliable car that will give you years of enjoyment and I would not hesitate to drive any distance. Engine runs cool even on very hot Myrtle Beach days! A/C needs a recharge, but everything is there. Has roll up windows, tilt & tele steering wheel, power brakes but no power steering. Fiber optics work. Dash "seat belt" warning light works and turns off with push of the dash button. "Brake" light works when parking brake is set. Headlights operate as they should both up and down, and low & high beams work as well as turn signals. Wiper door actuates (opens and closes) when starting the car in it's test mode, but wipers will not turn on...never really looked into this because car is not driven in the rain...could be as simple as a fuse. Underside of the car is very clean with no rust or scaling to speak of. Beautiful frame and birdcage. Newer exhaust. Basically this car has only been driven a few thousand miles since it was restored, and has ALWAYS been garage kept. This is a beautiful example that will make any owner proud. I am a private collector slowly trying to thin down my collection of classic muscle cars and exotics. Had 15, now down to 11, trying (forced by wife LOL) to get down to 6. I will miss this sweet ride. Ask any and all questions PRIOR to bidding. Also, make sure to have your finances in line BEFORE bidding. I am not a bank, I will not wait for you to get a loan, ask your preacher, get your wife's permission, etc... I expect the winning bidder to contact me immediately after winning with their contact info (full name & phone numbers so we can arrange payment and pick up/shipping intentions). I recently sold one of my Lotus Turbo Esprit's on here and the first winner never contacted me so I had to re-list it. That wastes time and money people, so I ask you kindly to NOT waste my time. Full payment is expected AND required within 5 business days from auction close. NO EXCEPTIONS. Sorry, not interested in any trades either. Only selling to thin my collection down to a more manageable number. My Vette is for sale locally as well so feel free to make an offer. Listing "may" end early due to that reason. Don't let this gorgeous Vette slip away from you. These are ONLY going UP in value and this is a NICE one! This is a No Reserve Auction...last bid wins! Bid high & bid often! Thanks for looking and happy bidding!

Nissan Leaf makes it 19 in a row for record sales; Chevy Volt drops 21 percent

Wed, Oct 1 2014

The Nissan Leaf continues its streak of "best month ever" sales with 2,881 EVs sold in September. Compared to the 1,953 sold in September 2013, that represents an increase of 47.5 percent and, as Nissan itself must be tired of saying by now, it marks yet another best month ever, same as last month and now the 19th in a row. Okay, sure, we know, Nissan will tout this run for as long as it can, but we're certainly expecting it each month, so if it ever doesn't happen, it'll be interesting to see how Nissan talks about it. Year-to-date, Leaf sales are up 35.7 percent compared to 2013. In any case, Nissan's director of EV marketing, Toby Perry, sent AutoblogGreen a statement that said, "Nissan Leaf owners have turned into some of our best marketers, and they jump at any opportunity to share their enthusiasm with friends and family. Take National Drive Electric Week – a grassroots celebration of all things EV and the perfect platform for LEAF owners to showcase the benefits of going electric. After celebrating with EV owners in more than 130 cities across the country, we saw a significant increase in Leaf showroom visits with midweek traffic just as heavy as what we see on the weekends." Year-to-date, Leaf sales are up 35.7 percent compared to 2013. Over on the Chevy Volt front, things aren't quite as rosy. After coming off a good August (the best sales month of 2014 by almost 500 units), Volt sales were down to 1,394, a decrease of 21.1 percent compared to September 2013. So far this year, Volt sales are down 13.2 percent year-over-year. It's kind of a stretch, but perhaps people are already waiting for the next-gen Volt, which will be revealed at the Detroit Auto Show in January, to go on sale? Speaking of things we say every month, our in-depth round-up of US green car sales is in process and will be appearing soon. Until then, please discuss how these two long-standing plug-in champs are doing on the sales floor. Green Chevrolet Nissan Electric Hybrid PHEV ev sales hybrid sales

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit

Tue, 15 Jan 2013

There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.

GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.
