I have a close contact in the Transport industry who can assist with a favorable rate and excellent service. The car deserves to be put on a truck and trailered to its next home. The pictures tell most of the story. :)
I reserve the right to end the listing early for any reason, as it is also being listed on other resources. It is priced to sell and is well in line with any others in this condition. Feel free to contact me directly at: 305-302-4617 with any questions. Make sure you have your finances in order, the Wife's approval, and are serious about it.
2000 Corvette Coupe w/ both roof panels ( glass / painted ) - 52000 orig. miles, and looks like a 10000 mile one. IT IS 1 OF ONLY 886 coupes produced in Dark Bowling Green Metallic - Absolutely stunning. The number is even less when you factor the beige interior into the equation. It has every option except the F45 - Sport seats, Heads up display, Dual zone a/c, chrome wheels, Tilt / tele steering wheel, memory pkg., and the G92 performance axle. It has been meticulously cared for, always garaged, never raced, and maintained impeccably. NO ACCIDENTS / PAINT, mechanically modified in any way whatsoever, or driven in bad weather. Take it to Corvette shows, and you will probably be the only one there with such an example.
The original Dk. Grn Metallic paint shines like new and is without flaws. The moldings, handles, roof panels, window glass, lettering, rubber seals, and all other exterior features are in exceptional condition. The wheels are damage free and the Firestone tires are excellent. It has never been run through an automatic car wash, and always hand washed / waxed are a great part as to why it still looks so fabulous. I have all of the manuals. The exterior is a strong 9.75 / 10.
On the inside, the Beige interior still looks, feels, and maintains the crispness of a new one. As you can see in the pics, the seats have always been covered, and the flooring still has that new carpet smell. The door panels, dash, center console, faceplates, and displays etc. are unblemished. All of the interior buttons / switches ( power windows, door locks, antenna, keyless entry, cruise, and 6 way power sport seats ) work without issue. All of the dash cluster gauges are lit and function. The stereo system still plays perfect. The undercarriage is dry, spotless, and rust free too. Inside, it is a 9.8 / 10.
Mechanically, it starts, idles, and drives smoothly as a "well-oiled" machine should. All of the servicing is up to date - super cold a/c, belts, hoses, fluids all changed / maintained at the proper intervals, The engine compartment is extra clean / dry, and it performs without hesitation. Of course, the LS! - 345 hp engine has great pick-up, and with the G92 rear axle you get a faster rear ratio. It performs without issue on all levels.
I always get compliments wherever I go with it, and people always say that the color is stunning. The next owner will truly love owning this Vette.

Mustang, Camaro, Challenger gallop onto USPS pony car postage stamp set
Tue, Jul 19 2022Some of America's most iconic cars are about to be immortalized on postage stamps. A new set by the U.S. Postal Service will celebrate the the golden era of pony cars, featuring five classic examples of Detroit iron. Each one is beautifully illustrated in oil-on-canvas style, with subjects in motion and sunlight glinting off the chrome, and would add a nice touch to any first-class letter. The pony car segment was all about (relatively) small, sporty alternatives to the full-size land yachts of the 1960s. They typically came equipped with 6-cylinder engines or small-block V8s. The category was named after the Ford Mustang, hence the name. Some, though, argue that the Plymouth Barracuda, which was launched a couple of weeks before the Mustang, is the first. Luckily, the Falcon-based Mustang's distinct styling generated a sales sensation, or we might be calling them fish cars. Appropriately, one of the featured cars is a Mustang. But it's not just any Mustang. The 1969 Boss 302, seen here resplendent in Bright Yellow, was created for the hotly-contested SCCA Trans-Am racing series. One of its main rivals would have been the 1969 Chevy Camaro Z/28, also created specifically for the series, and is included in the set in Fathom Green. Representing Auburn Hills in the set is a 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T in Plum Crazy, while Southfield's American Motors gets a nod with an AMC Javelin in Big Bad Orange. The Mustang's platform cousin, a 1967 Mercury Cougar XR-7, is portrayed in a gorgeous Burgundy Poly that almost looks incomplete without Neko Case on the hood. It's not the first time the USPS has honored America's rich car culture on its stamps. In 2013, it issues a series of muscle car stamps with the help of Richard Petty. That set featured a 1966 Pontiac GTO, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1970 Chevelle SS, 1970 Plymouth Hemi ’Cuda and, of course, a 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona. Another set in 2016 featured classic pickup trucks. Going further back, a 2008 release had chroed and finned automobiles of the 1950s and a 2005 release featured sporty American cars of the same era. The pony car stamps will debut on August 25 at the Great American Stamp Show in Sacramento, California in partnership with the American Philatelic Society. The public is free to attend the dedication ceremony, but you must RSVP first. After that, they will be available at local post offices and on line at the USPS store.
Body shop manager stole over $500,000 worth of government trucks and parts
Fri, Jan 27 2017The 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:
Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues
Wed, 28 Dec 2011'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
