1986 Corvette, Automatic transmission with 93,305 miles..runs and drives great. No drips, No leaks. This car is very sounds and ready to drive, a little time and love would go a long way on this car. Has newer after market rims, with low millage Z rated tires (cost me over $220 each) Also has newer exhaust, Y pipe was replaced and new flow master mufflers. The heat and air both work good - the AC will need charged. Both headlight motors have been redone and work great, both power window motors have been changed and work great. I couldn't get the lock correct, so it needs "tucked" back inside the panel, but works fine. Both door panels have a screw in the corner, to hold them tight (done by previous owner - the plastic clips must have broken) The dash board was replaced and is nice. The radio works, but has a short, banging on it seems to fix.? The leather seats are OK, for 27 years old, the power adjustment on the seats are pulling out of the boxes, could be glued back/repaired, but no huge tears in the leather. I only drove this car 10 or 15 times last year, I only drive on weekend days where you can remove the top and enjoy. The removable top has 2 cracks, one on each side edge, and can be replaced - for now I have filled the cracks with super glue and they only have a minor drip if left in rain or power washed. There are a few minor cracks in plastic pieces here and there, about what you expect from the age of the plastic. The dashboard has 2 small lights on speedometer out, but the panel is bright and works perfect. The outside paint looks good when wet, pictures were taken just after it rained it clean (was very dirty from sitting for 6 months) but the black is very faded, mostly near the back, and the is a scratch down the drivers side door (courtesy of my EX) When very first started it smokes a bit of exhaust, just for a second, and kind of jumps a little bit when first put into drive..Its a GREAT car to drive, nothing else drives or rides like a VETTE. but I don't have the time or extra spending money to make it what it could be. Pictures will tell the story, I will add more later. Feel free to ask any Q's I'm sure I forgot to add something. Its a very solid running Corvette with good millage. I bought from a friend and have owned for about 8 years, and i am the cars 3rd owner.

Hot air balloons caught in high winds drag fullsize SUV
Mon, Jul 20 2015A sudden storm front whipped up enough wind to send some hot air balloons flying into the air in Wisconsin over the weekend. One ballon proved so energetic that it was able to drag a fullsize SUV across a field and into a stand of tents. The freak accident occurred at Balloonfest in Waterford, Wisconsin. Spectators were horrified as balloons dragged handlers to the ground and launched with terrified pilots clinging to their baskets. Organizers had started packing up the colorful balloons due to ominous storm clouds when the wind kicked up. "Happened just like that; it was crazy," Nathan Fricke, crew member, told Fox 6. Winds were clocked at 40 to 50 miles per hour. A balloon caught in the wind dragged a large SUV (we think a Suburban or Yukon XL) hundreds of feet and into a cluster of tents on the edge of the staging area where balloons were on display for festival goers. Considering that the SUV surely weighs well over 5,000 pounds, it's lucky that no one was injured in the incident. News Source: Fox6Now Weird Car News Chevrolet GM GMC SUV
'Tomorrowland' movie will advertise Chevy Volt, E-NVs
Fri, Mar 27 2015Before the 2016 Chevrolet Volt arrives at dealerships, it's going to come to a cineplex near you. The next-generation hybrid and the EN-V electric networked vehicle concept will play bit parts in the background of the upcoming Disney movie Tomorrowland starring George Clooney and Britt Robertson. Chevrolet will run digital and television ads around the movie's opening, which is May 22 in the US. The Bowtie and Disney tie-up is another in their years-long collaboration, going back to the revamped Test Track that opened at Epcot Center in 2012, and Chevolet is also the official vehicle of Shanghai Disney. The press release below has more on the movie and the Volt, the movie trailer is above – there's no Volt in it, but there is a late-model Buick. Chevrolet and Disney See Possibilities in 'Tomorrowland' Film to help kick off marketing efforts for next-generation Chevrolet Volt DETROIT, 2015-03-26 – At their core, Disney and Chevrolet are entities of optimism, believing that with a little ingenuity, anything is possible. They will come together in the new Disney film "Tomorrowland" to imagine the possibilities. The all-new 2016 Chevrolet Volt and EN-V concepts appear in the backdrops of the present day and Tomorrowland. The film's U.S. debut is May 22. In Disney's riveting mystery adventure "Tomorrowland," a jaded scientist and an optimistic teen embark on a danger-filled mission to unearth the secrets of an enigmatic place somewhere in time and space. "Tomorrowland is a place where nothing is impossible, which is something that Chevrolet believes can exist in the here and now," said Tim Mahoney, vice president, Global Chevrolet. "The Chevrolet spirit reflects the hopes and possibilities of tomorrow in real instruments of change for today like the next-generation Chevrolet Volt." The first marketing efforts for the 2016 Chevrolet Volt will be tied to Tomorrowland. A television spot and digital advertising will debut in early May. The all-new Volt is an electric car with extended range, showcasing a sleeker, sportier design that offers 50 miles of EV range, greater efficiency and stronger acceleration. The Volt's new, efficient propulsion system will offer an estimated total driving range of more than 400 miles. With regular charging, owners can expect to average more than 1,000 miles between gas fill-ups. Chevrolet and Disney have a long history of collaboration around the globe.
