About the car. This is a three owner, adult driven Corvette with one family owning the car for 34 years. It shows the original 50,008 miles. The vette has never been smoked in, has always been garaged, and has not been exposed to inclement weather. The car is solid, starts the first time everytime, and runs and drives like it was brand new. Everything on this car works with the exception of the clock. The AC was upgraded and recharged this past summer and worked well the few times I had the car out with the top up. The interior is in very nice condition. The seats look just like they do in the pictures with no excessive wear, tears, or split seams. The carpets are great. The soft top looks almost new. Again, this is a 39 year old, all original car with nothing on this Stingray having been replaced except for brakes/calipers, a new rear spring, new mufflers from Ecklers, and new rubber trim around the convertible top. The paint is completely original with the exception of the front and rear urethane bumpers. At some point those were repainted. The front bumper is slightly misaligned at the left corner (common) and has a paint crack. The rear bumper does show some cracking under the paint. In addition, the windows need to be adjusted. The bumper cracks are a 100% common problem that all Corvettes of this vintage have. Look at other similar Corvettes listed on ebay, virtually all of those bumpers have been replaced. Please note that the factory original, removable hardtop, is worth somewhere around $3000 just by itself. Look at other listings to see if this top is included.
I am not a dealer but did purchase this Corvette from one. This car is exactly the way I purchased it except for the items listed above. I have tried to list this Stingray as accurately as possible and will always answer your questions honestly. If you do have serious questions please don't hesitate to ask, either through ebay or call Rick, 501-205-0609. No games please! Only serious bidders. Bid to buy, the reserve is conservative.
The car is available for inspection in Conway, Arkansas. I do reserve the right to end this auction at any time as the car is for sale locally.

Safety group pans GM’s new Marketplace in-dash shopping
Wed, Dec 6 2017When it comes to our cars, is the Internet of Things a godsend? Or a hidden menace that will create more problems than it will solve? On the same day General Motors announced it will equip newer-model cars with its in-dash Marketplace e-commerce app, a prominent safety group was shooting it down. National Safety Council President Deborah Hersman tells Bloomberg the technology will only contribute to distracted driving and hurt efforts to stem the tide of rising auto fatalities, which grew 5.6 percent to more than 37,000 in the U.S. in 2016. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says distracted driving was responsible for 3,477 fatalities and 391,000 injuries in 2015, the most recent year for which it has data. "There's nothing about this that's safe," Hersman told Bloomberg. "If this is why they want WiFi in the car, we're going to see fatality numbers go up even higher than they are now." Marketplace, developed with IBM, will allow drivers — or more often, one hopes, their passengers — to order coffee or food, find gas stations and reserve hotel rooms from their dashboard screens. The technology is set to be uploaded automatically to nearly 1.9 million GM vehicles model-year 2017 and later that are equipped with WiFi hotspots and compatible systems. By the end of 2018, about 4 million Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac vehicles will be equipped with Marketplace. The app will debut with a limited number of participating retailers, including TGI Fridays, Shell, Exxon Mobil and Starbucks, with more likely to join later. Online retail giant Amazon is also partnering with automakers such as Ford to bring e-commerce capabilities inside the car through its Alexa personal assistant. While convenience is nice, one other thing is becoming clear as the IoT wedges its way into our cars: It's taking aim at some decidedly first-world problems.Related Video: Image Credit: GM Buick Cadillac Chevrolet GM GMC Technology Infotainment in-car entertainment marketplace e-commerce
Reuss says GM diesel plans are still on pace
Fri, Oct 16 2015General Motors is not going to let Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal ruin its plans for a new line of efficient, torquey oil-burners, the company's Executive Vice President Mark Reuss said at a recent press event. "No way," Reuss responded when asked about cancelling the upcoming diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze and other vehicles. "The Cruze Diesel is too good not to do it." Slated for 2017, the compact is just the latest member of a diesel offensive that initially kicked off with the first Cruze Diesel and most recently saw the introduction of the oil-burning Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon. Reuss also reassured those in attendance that there was "no delay" in development of Cadillac's diesel lineup. Cadillac is working on a line of four- and six-cylinder turbodiesels for Europe. They'd make their way into the US market, too, eventually. "It's a question of timing," Reuss said, according to Car and Driver. Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal has caused automakers across the globe to at least reanalyze their diesel strategy. Jaguar Land Rover, which is preparing several diesel-powered models for the US market, went on record late last month to reaffirm its commitment to diesel.

Chevy Volt gets customer satisfaction 'recall' for rear hatch issue *UPDATE*
Mon, Jan 26 2015Last week, General Motors has issued a "Customer Satisfaction program" for some 2011-2015 model year Chevrolet Volts to fix the manual rear lift gate not working as appropriate. According to Volt owner posts on Facebook, the problem manifests itself by the hatch not opening up all the way (sometimes worse in the cold) with some people bumping their heads. Dealers will replace the lift gate struts as part of the program. Some drivers were notified through the vehicle's OnStar system that there is a problem. GM has not yet said how many Volts are affected. *UPDATE* This program is for all 2011-2015 model year Volts. Chevrolet spokesperson Michelle Malcho told AutoblogGreen that, "This is not a recall, so there won't be any formal information posted on the GM website." The fixes will be free to affected Volt owners. Some 2010-2015 Cadillac SRX vehicles are also affected by the same problem and will also be fixed.
