1997 Chevy C5 Corvette Targa with glass top W/Z51 Performance Package. 6 speed Manual. White with Slate Grey and Black interior. Pics are of the ACTUAL Car and were taken at the MotorCity Gumball and Tail of the Dragon this summer... All decals have been removed except for the Gumball door logos which can be in a matter of minutes. No Joyrides as the roads are bad and salt covered. Car has 94k miles on it and runs/Drives perfect. Everything works (even air). Never seen a winter and is always stored in the garage. Clean Carfax in hand and available for review. I am the third owner even though Ebays title check says 4. and have had the car a year and put ~4000 miles on it over the summer. I bought this car specifically for the MCGB and am looking for something a little different this year. The paint is all original and in above average condition for the year of the car. People are surprised when I tell them it's a 1997. Upgrades are: 1) Full C6 ZO6 suspension, Shocks, springs, swaybars, metal end links, and bushings. Installed in May of '13 ($1850) 2) Full Corsa Xtreme Cat back exhaust with x pipe. Full Stainless. ($1300) Installed in May of '13.

We really want to use an eCrate to restomod an old GM car. Here's what we'd build

Fri, Oct 30 2020

You hopefully saw the news today of GM's introduction of its Connect and Cruise eCrate motor and battery package, which effectively makes the Bolt's electric motor, battery pack and myriad other elements available to, ah, bolt into a different vehicle. It's the same concept as installing a gasoline-powered crate motor into a classic car, but with electricity and stuff.Â This, of course, got us thinking about what we'd stuff the eCrate into. Before we got too ahead of ourselves, however, we discovered that the eCrate battery pack is literally the Bolt EV pack in not only capacity but size and shape. In other words, you need to have enough space in the vehicle to place and/or stuff roughly 60% of a Chevy Bolt's length. It's not a big car, but that's still an awful lot of real estate. There's a reason GM chose to simply plop the pack into the bed and cargo area of old full-size SUVs. Well that, and having a rear suspension beefy enough to handle about 1,000 pounds of batteries.Â So after that buzz kill, we still wanted to peruse the GM back catalog for classics we'd love to see transformed into an electric restomod that might be able to swallow all that battery ... maybe ... possibly ... whatever, saws and blow torches exist for a reason.Â 1971 Buick Riviera Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski: If you’re going to build an electric conversion, why not do it with style? ThatÂ’s why IÂ’m choosing a 1971-1973 Buick Riviera. You know, the one with the big glass boat-tail rear end that ends in a pointy V. Being a rather large vehicle with a big sloping fastback shape, IÂ’m hoping thereÂ’s enough room in the trunk and back seat to pack in the requisite battery pack. That would likely require cutting away some of the metal bulkhead that supports the rear seatback, but not so much that a wee bit of structural bracing couldnÂ’t shore things up. The big 455-cubic-inch Buick V8 up front will obviously have to go. Remember, this was the 1970s, so despite all that displacement, the Riviera only had around 250 horsepower (depending on the year and the trim level). So the electric motorÂ’s 200 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque ought to work as an acceptable replacement. Â 1982 Chevrolet S10 Associate Editor Byron Hurd: OK, so the name "E-10" is already taken by a completely different truck, but let's not let labels get in the way of a fun idea.
