Feel free to ask me any questions about the car : raymundoreengleby@ukfun.com .1990 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 - this was the hottest American automobile made this year. In 1990 the Corvette ZR1
set several world records for durability, time and speed at a track in Texas. The ZR1 package was a $27,016 option
in 1990 with a total list price of over $60,000.
This car was originally purchased by a doctor at Jon Allen Chevrolet in Daytona Beach, Florida. The car was stored
in one of the doctors garages for 24 years along with many other collectables. Once I purchased it I took it to
Carr's Corvettes in Plano, Texas. They went through the entire car and found nothing wrong with it. They replaced
the tires and shocks. They were both a safety concern after sitting all that time. The original Goodyear tires are
wrapped in plastic and the original shocks are in a box in my garage and is part of this deal if wanted. Having the
original tires is unique if you ever want to show the car. Carr's Corvettes changed all the oils and flushed all
the other fluids like the radiator and brakes. The engine was designed by Lotus and built by Mercury Marine for GM, they produced it for 6 years. From what I have
read this motor was the basis for the Cadillac NorthStar which was built for years and quite reliable. In 1990 the
LT-5 had 375 HP and 370 ft lbs of torque. It has a valet key which if turned off reduces the HP and helps to stop
others from driving it hard while your enjoying dinner. The top speed on this car is rated at 180 MPH.
Automobile-catalog.com has several pages of statistics and specifications related to this car.
This car is all original and the only 2 things that I have taken off the car (tires and shocks), I have if you want
them. The car runs and drives like a 25 year old brand new car. It drives great around the city and on the freeway.
As I mentioned in the condition section above, the only issue with the car that I know of is one of the seat belts
sticks sometimes when you pull it out.
If you have ever wanted a C4 ZR1 this is one you don't want to pass on. It's a beautiful car and the only thing it
needs is a good new owner. The car has never seen rain since I owned it and the doctor told me the same thing for
the 24 years he owned it. Once you see the under carriage of the car you will understand. If you need to ship the
car, once you find the shipper you are comfortable with, I will help them to get it loaded.
The last thing I have is to answer the question of why am I selling it. The truth is I have several cars. I ordered
a 2016 Z06 and in order to keep peace in the household I have to give up 2 cars to get one new Z06. It was hard but
I think it will be worth it.
The car is being sold in as is condition. I will answer any questions you have the best that I can. Thanks and good
luck.

Corvette owner finds stolen car, but can't get it back [w/video]

Wed, Feb 25 2015

It's not too uncommon to hear about owners being reunited with their stolen cars decades after reporting them missing. The story of Terry Dietrich in Georgia starts that way with police finding her lost 1972 Chevrolet Corvette after over 40 years. However, this case takes a different turn because unless she wants to bid on it, Dietrich's likely not getting the 'Vette back. Just six months after purchasing it in 1972, Dietrich's blue Corvette was stolen in Georgia, and in 1975 the sports car found its way to a man in North Carolina. He kept the car right up until his death just a few months ago, and that's when restorer Gary Green bought the 'Vette from his widow, according to Yahoo Autos. Unfortunately, after acquiring the Corvette, Green found some major discrepancies. For one thing, the listed VIN pointed to a '69 convertible, and there was a different serial number on the frame. Green reported the problem to the local police, and they figured out it was the 'Vette Dietrich lost over four decades ago. Consequently, the cops impounded it. The issue now arises that while Dietrich is the victim of the theft, she isn't technically the car's last legal owner. After the Corvette was stolen, she reported the crime to her insurance company, and it paid on the claim, which essentially forfeited her ownership. To make matters slightly more confusing the company can't find the title on the 'Vette either, according to Yahoo Autos. That leaves the well preserved 'Vette sitting in a police impound lot. It will likely go to auction.

Chevy Bolt 200-mile EV going into production near Detroit

Thu, Feb 12 2015

Where there's smoke, there's fire, apparently. The rumors of the Chevy Bolt going into production have been proven correct, with an announcement this morning at the Chicago Auto Show that the 200-mile, all-electric Bolt will be built at the Orion Assembly facility near Detroit. GM didn't say exactly when the Bolt will be built, but GM North America president Alan Batey said in a statement that, "We are moving quickly because of its potential to completely shake up the status quo for electric vehicles." He's not kidding. GM is talking about a $30,000 price tag for an EV that can do twice as many electric miles as any non-Tesla mass-production EV today. Previous hints have the Bolt starting production next year for a market debut in 2017, and with all of the accuracy we've seen from these secret releases up to now, we're going to say this is probably accurate until we hear otherwise. We still have questions about the price tag, but for now we'll try to track down more information here in Chicago. Chevrolet Commits to Bolt EV Production Game-changing, long-range EV to be built at Orion Assembly facility in Michigan CHICAGO – Chevrolet this morning confirmed production of its next-generation pure electric vehicle, based on the Bolt EV concept. It will be built at General Motors' Orion Assembly facility near Detroit. GM North America President Alan Batey made the announcement ahead of the Chicago Auto Show. The Bolt EV concept was introduced last month at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. "The message from consumers about the Bolt EV concept was clear and unequivocal: Build it," said Batey. "We are moving quickly because of its potential to completely shake up the status quo for electric vehicles." Leveraging the industry-leading battery technology found in the Chevrolet Volt and Spark EV, the Bolt EV concept was developed as a game-changing, long-range pure electric for all 50 states, designed to offer more than a GM-estimated 200 miles of range at a target price of around $30,000. The progressively styled concept vehicle features selectable driving modes for preferred driving styles, such as daily commuting, and it was designed to support DC fast charging. "We're proud that Chevrolet has decided to produce the Bolt EV here in Michigan at the Orion Assembly facility," Gov. Rick Snyder said. "Michigan unquestionably remains the global automotive leader.

Recharge Wrap-up: Phoenix Cars delivers ZEUS to Navy, Volt saves gas compared to i-MiEV

Thu, Apr 23 2015

Phoenix Cars has delivered its first Zero Emissions Utility Shuttle (ZEUS) flatbed truck to the US Navy. The electric flatbed will be used to transport maintenance materials around Naval Base Ventura County Port Hueneme. The Phoenix ZEUS features a 100-mile range, and can charge in just three hours. It also features vehicle-to-grid technology and direct power capability, allowing it to function as a mobile power station. ZEUS customers enjoy an eight-year/300,000-mile battery warranty and round-the-clock technical support from Phoenix. Phoenix launched an electric passenger shuttle last year, and years ago worked on an electric sport utility truck before shifting over to larger vehicles. Read more in the press release from Phoenix Cars. A man found that he used less gas by trading in his Mitsubishi i-MiEV for a Chevrolet Volt. Ben Rich saved fuel in part by using his Volt for road trips rather than needing to rent cars. Rich also found other benefits to driving a Volt, including more comfort, more freedom of movement and less range anxiety. Rich often had to turn off the heat in the winter to eke out precious miles in the Mitsubishi, which he needn't do in the Chevy, though he did have a gripe about the Volt using the gas motor to warm the car.

ChargePoint has tallied over 9 million charging sessions for a total of 65 gigawatt hours of energy. Based on national efficiency averages of three miles per kWh and 23.9 miles per gallon, this has saved 8.2 million gallons of gasoline and 60 million pounds of CO2. This accounts for what ChargePoint calls a "huge environmental impact." Read more in the release from ChargePoint below.
