1977 L48 Chevrolet Corvette.   I purchased this vehicle last year from a Corvette Dealer in NC.  The dealer has been in business for 40 years and is known for selling nice Corvettes.  The car was miles exempt when purchased. The odometer reads 06228. It is most likely 106,228  . This is a very rattle free tight driving C3 Corvette. The smoothest I have ever owned or driven. The serial numbers on the engine are for an L-48 for that year Corvette.  The interior is beautiful on the car.  I replaced the steering wheel with a new reproduction wheel.  The car also has a new Kenwood (remote control stereo). The carpet is new and the door panels look brand new.  All the gauges work. The clock is the only thing that does not work (common problem).  I had the dealership fix the headlights (they work great and go up fast and precise). The A/C blows ice cold also.  The BF Goodrich Radial T/As look brand new as do the optional factory aluminum wheels. I also put a new top of the line Advance Auto Parts battery in a few months ago.  The motor may have been rebuilt (not sure). It runs like a low mile 350.  No smoke when started or when operating. The car has a performance cam along with an Edelbrock Performer Intake Manifold. Also an Edelbrock 600cfm electric choke carb. Not sure on the cam specifics. I just bought the carb from Summit Racing and had my mechanic adjust the electric choke etc. The TH350 transmission shifts smooth.  The engine leaks a small amount of oil. Not anything to notice on the dip stick. The paint is very nice on the car and only has a few minor flaws. The nose has a scratch that was touched up and the hood has a chip on the edge of it by the passengers side windshield area (photo taken).  The plastic bumperettes have a few small stress cracks in the rear bumper. Common for C3s with these bumpers due to age etc.  Very hard to notice them.  The car is not a 100 point show car.  It is a very clean C3 Corvette that you can take to a car show or drive on a nice day. This car runs great and sounds great.  I can provide further photos if needed.  The car is located in NC.

Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why

Sun, 27 Jan 2013

Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.

GM tells owners not to use SUV wipers due to fire risk

Sun, Oct 11 2015

General Motors is recalling 31,685 examples of the 2016 Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, and GMC Acadia because a short circuit in the windshield wiper motor can potentially lead to a fire. Due to the danger, the company is asking owners not to use the wipers until the problem is fixed, according to The Detroit Free Press citing the Associated Press. A manufacturing defect in the wiper motor cover means that the electrical terminals can come into contact and cause a short. The part could "melt, smoke, or catch fire," according to a statement from GM. The company will get them fixed immediately, and dealers will replace the cover. If there's bad weather at the time the owner specifies to get the recall work completed, the automaker will come pick up the crossovers. Depending on parts availability, the automaker will supply a rental car for customers, as well. The issue was discovered at the factory. According to the company's statement, only 6,405 actually made it to customers, and they were notified immediately by overnight letter. The rest were in dealer stock. The affected crossovers carry build dates between August 18, 2015 and September 24, 2015. Of those, there are 29,295 in the US and 1,073 in Canada. GM Statement: General Motors has told the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it will recall approximately 29,295 2016 model year Chevrolet Traverse, Buick Enclave and GMC Acadia SUVs in the U.S. because the front windshield wiper motor may overheat when in use because of a manufacturing defect. In some cases, the front windshield wiper motor cover may melt, smoke or catch fire. The approximately 6,405 customers who have taken delivery of these vehicles were notified by overnight letter and are urged to contact a GM dealer as soon as possible to arrange a service appointment. These customers should not use the front windshield wipers until they have been repaired. If weather conditions prevent driving the vehicle without using the windshield wipers, GM will arrange to pick up the vehicle for servicing. If repair parts are unavailable, GM will provide a rental car at no cost until parts become available. The total population, including Canada, Mexico and exports, is approximately 31,685. About 25,280 of these vehicles are in dealer stock and will not be sold until repairs are made.
