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!

The Tesla Model S was the best-selling EV of 2015

Thu, Jan 14 2016

According to numbers crunched over at Hybrid Cars, the Tesla Model S was the best selling pure electric vehicle last year with 50,366 deliveries. These numbers might not tell the whole story, since Tesla reports deliveries made in 2015 that might have been sold in a different calendar year, while other makers are tallying sales. However, it's inarguable that the Model S ended up in more worldwide driveways than the second-place Nissan Leaf, which did about 43,000 sales. In the US alone, Leaf sales were down 42.8 percent year-on-year, from 30,200 in 2014 to 17,269 last year, and that decline also increased throughout the year. That marks a great finish to a great start to 2015, when Tesla took the lead in EV sales in the US for the first quarter. On top of that, as of last year the Model S becomes the second-best selling EV ever, with 107,148 deliveries since the middle of 2012. It trails the Nissan Leaf, with well over 200,000 worldwide sales. The Chevrolet Volt/Opel Ampera combo takes a close third, with about 106,000 sales. The Nissan and Chevy rivals both launched at the end of 2010, a 16-month head start on the Tesla. Down the charts, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV which continues to be forbidden fruit for our market notched 39,000 sales. The BYD Qin PHEV sold 31,898 examples in China, and BYD would take the overall victory from Tesla with 58,728 deliveries if you counted all of its EV and PHEV production, such as its electric buses. The BMW i3 nabbed fourth place with 24,057 global sales. In 2011 the Munich automaker said it wanted to sell 30,000 i3s annually by 2014, but by the time the car launched the company considered 15,000 annual sales 'great for now,' so the 2015 number seems a fine place to wind up.

C7 Corvette turbo with 1,000 horsepower promised from Hennessey

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

If you can't wait for the next-generation Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Hennessey says they will have you covered. The Texas-based company has announced it will offer a spate of upgrades for the 2014 Corvette ranging from a range of bolt-on options all the way up to a 1,000-horsepower, twin-turbo system. Buyers can start with a cold air intake, cat-back exhaust or stainless steel long-tube headers, but Hennessey says it will also offer up three stages of forced induction mayhem should those bits and baubles not provide enough thrust.
Those choices start with a supercharger system good for up to 700 hp, though Hennessey will gladly ditch the blower in favor of two turbos. Doing so will spin the crank to the tune of 800 horsepower all the way up to a certifiably ludicrous 1,000 ponies. There's no word on how much these tricks will cost you - or when they will be available, as we're guessing they haven't gotten their hands on the car yet - but you can head over to the Hennessey site to drop them a line if you're curious.
