Here we have a 1975 Corvette Stingray w/TTops. This car has been recently restored by a professional, Michigan registered repair facility . The paint is crystal red candy, which is on the 2013 Corvette. It is a 3 stage candy paint and is absolutely beautiful. Only high quality materials and paint were used on this car. The body is in excellent shape, no cracks, scratches, chips etc. The under carriage has been completely undercoated for future protection. All the glass (windows) is in great shape, no cracks, chips, gouges etc. The black interior of this corvette is in decent shape. Seats, carpet, console, dash are in good shape. The motor is a carburetted 5.7 liter (350). It has a edelbrock carburettor, aluminium intake. Has accel coil in distributer w/8.8 Accell plug wires. Has aluminium edelbrock air cleaner and valve covers. Has headers and duel exhaust with flow master mufflers. Motor originally was equipped with A/C, but pump has been removed, probably to increase horsepower. The odometer has 88,799 miles. This car has chrome crager wheels that are in decent shape. There is some peeling and small corrosion spots but they still look good and shine well. The front tires are Radial GT HP 4000 P 245/60 R15 and rears are P275/60 R15 and tires are have 60% Good tread. Lots of miles left on them. The stereo is a Panasonic CQ-C11010 50 Wattx4 CD player. Car has factory tachometer and a 8000 RPM Sunpro tack attached to steering column. Transmission is an Automatic and shifts good and smoothly. Shifter on floor (console), all chrome, emblems, trim and T Tops are present and in good shape (original). Imperfections on this car are minimal. The headlights are up all the time. I haven't had a professional mechanic look at them but I heard it could be a couple seals that are less than $20.00.

The interior has some imperfections, scratches on headliner . Some cracks in rear panels (Behind Seats). The heater blower switch is bad, heater blower motor works fine (has been tested) the switch is bad. The driver side window goes down fine, when going up it needs guided by hand. Again I haven't had a professional look at it. It does go all the way down and 3/4 of the way up without assistance.

This car is in excellent mechanical condition (Other than issues listed). The brakes are like new, pads, rotors, callipers etc. The shocks are good the rear has air shocks on it. The front and rear bumpers have been smoothed out. No gaps or waves that most Corvette bumpers have. Extra time and money were invested in this cars body work and paint work to get it to look as beautiful as it does. The pictures of this car do it no justice, the colour is very pretty, and the shine is as good fi not better than any Corvette around. It has chrome Hot Rod style mirrors on both driver and passenger side. (They look good) This whole car was water sanded and buffed to a lustre that will even stand out at car shows. All lights, blinkers, power windows, etc. works fine. As far as drivability we bought this Corvette in Ohio and drove it straight home to Michigan approximately 2 1/2 hours and had no problems. It was very smooth riding for a Corvette. Other than the drive home I haven't put a lot of miles on it. We have too much time and money in this car to be driving it around and have something happen to it. SO after the restoration we have stored it inside and covered with a car cover.(which comes with the car to the winning bidder) We have access to financing as low as 5.99%, the average loan value is approximately $15,000 and the good loan value is approximately $24,000.

If your the winning bidder a $1,000.00 non-refundable deposit within 48 hours is expected. We have 100% positive feedback, for a good reason, because I am honest with the condition of all items I sell. Do not bid if you don't have access to the money or financing!!! We are not giving this car away, the reserve is set at a fair price. The restoration of this cars body would cost a minimum of $10,000 and that's on the low side considering its a 3 stage candy paint, with extensive priming and blocking and all that goes with the show quality paint work. This car looks like its doing 100mph sitting still!! Good Luck bidding Guys and Gals!!

If you have any questions regarding the vehicle other than the reserve feel free to call Scott at 517-960-9363. We are not telling the reserve so bid according to what you plan on paying.

The story of the 2014 Chevrolet SS: "Luxury, power, refinement, handling"

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Not including the women and men who built it, the 2014 Chevrolet SS has only been seen in person by a piddling number of people - fewer humans than would fill the gymnasium at a high school volleyball game. Not including the men and women who built it, no one has driven it. Even so, it is already saddled with two controversies: the way it looks and the way it shifts.
First to that shifting. Did we love the last Americanized Holden, the awesomely sportsome Pontiac G8 GXP, and its six-speed manual? Of course. Do we wish the SS came with a six-speed manual? Of course. But we'd like a toboggan to come with a manual transmission. We'd put a manual transmission on a weasel if we could because we're just wired that way; if it moves, it should come with a stick and a clutch. Or at least the option.
Let's climb down off the ledge, though. We haven't driven the SS and we have no idea how good (or not) the automatic is. And the Hobson's Choice in transmissions when it comes to sport sedans like the BMW M5, Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG and Jaguar XFR-S and, oh yeah, cars-that-really-should-have-manuals like the Audi R8 and Nissan GT-R and Porsche 918 and every single Lamborghini and Ferrari, for instance, hasn't stopped us from enjoying what is clearly the gruesome, dual-clutched demise of Western automotive civilization. Because in spite of our ululations at the dying of the six-speed light, we understand.

Body shop manager stole over $500,000 worth of government trucks and parts

Fri, Jan 27 2017

The US Department of Justice announced yesterday that the manager of a collision and restoration business in Virginia admitted he helped misappropriate and sell vehicles and parts from the State Department. Specifically, he sold 12 Chevrolet Suburbans, a Hummer, and $7,500 worth of tires and wheels. He pled guilty to charges to commit theft of government property and wire fraud. He will likely see 18 to 20 months in prison, a fine of $4,000 to $40,000, and has already agreed to pay restitution of $416,020 and asset forfeiture of the same amount. According to the Department of Justice, the body shop manager, James Ratcliffe, worked with the owner of the business and a State Department official, both unnamed, to obtain the property. It started with the wheels and tires, which were delivered and sold on two occasions, one in 2011 and another in 2012. The trucks came later, and were sold throughout 2011 and 2013. Ratcliffe and the shop owner kept most of the profits, and shared some of the leftovers with the government official. In addition to the vehicles that were sold, the government official also gave Ratcliffe a pair of Suburbans for his own personal use. The Department of Justice estimated the total value of the SUVs at $96,400. In total, the group misappropriated $512,420 worth of property. Related Video:
