1963 Corvette Stingray Convertible with soft and hardtop. This is the first time this car has been offered to the public. The last time this vehicle was licensed was in 1993 in Florida. Watch the video below of engine running and scroll down to see 250 photos documenting the vehicle condition. Please note that I am not a car dealer. This vehicle is from my private collection. I do not claim to be a Corvette expert. I obtained this car that came out of an estate located in Miami Beach, FL. The undercarriage is in excellent condition. Zero accidents nor ever any frame damage. Odometer reads 74,078 miles. Appears to have a 327/340HP motor in it (casting number 3783870). I cannot locate serial numbers on the front of the block, unless they are located somewhere I am not aware of. The car has a four speed Muncie transmission with a tight close ratio shifter (I did not try to locate any numbers on the trans). The original color appears to be red from the code on the body plate although I cannot locate any red paint anywhere on the car. The car runs and shifts excellent. The clock and Am/FM radio works. I have a copy of the original title showing the vehicle was transferred to the last owner in 1987. The plates on the rear shows vehicle registration expiration in 1993. Car runs excellent and will be an excellent driver with some minor repairs. I do not have time as I have too many projects. Overall this is a very nice original car that is extremely clean for being 52 years old. Try and find another in this condition for the price. Nice solid investment as Corvette values continue to rise. Overall the cars needs minor repairs to be a very nice driver:1) Needs brake lines (complete brake line kit from "Inline Tube" goes with the car). I have no time to install. Car will need to be towed.2) Spare tire is missing. The jack and wrench are intact.3) Soft top and rear plastic window needs cleaning4) Drivers seat has a minor tear on seam5) The paint is in driver quality with scratches and paint bubbling. The body is excellent overall. I cannot locate any prior accident repairs.6) Carpet is a faded, but in good driver condition7) The back glass in the hardtop has a crack in it8) The passenger door glass needs to be re installed in the track. Window goes up but tilts on the way down9) Left headlight does not go up with switch, appears to need grease New parts:1) Master cylinder installed2) Complete "Inline Tube" complete brake line kit comes with the vehicle3) Brand new tires are on the car with zero miles on them.

MotorWeek looks back at 1995 Chevy Tahoe, GMC Yukon

Sat, Jun 20 2015

MotorWeek's Retro Review series gives us a nostalgic look back at some of the best sports cars and luxury sedans available in the 1980s and '90s. For its latest clip, the show shifts gears to remember the 1995 Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon. Similar to the success of crossovers today, SUVs were tallying big sales and making big money for automakers in the mid-'90s. The Tahoe and Yukon filled slots in the market as steps down from the larger Suburban. These twins weren't wanting for space, though, with plenty of room to haul around a family. MotorWeek came away generally impressed too, and called the models some "of the better riding sport utilities we've ever experienced." This review comes with some jazzy, electric guitar licks to enjoy in the background.

2015 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra recalled for steering issues

Thu, Sep 13 2018

DETROIT — General Motors Co is recalling more than 1 million pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles in the United States due to issues with a temporary loss of power steering, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said. The recall is for 2015 models. They are: the Chevy Silverado 1500, Suburban and Tahoe, GMC Sierra 1500, Yukon and Yukon XL and Cadillac Escalade. The problem may cause difficulty steering the vehicle, especially at low speeds, increasing the risk of a crash, the auto safety regulator said in a document dated Sept. 12. The document did not highlight any reports of accidents and injuries, because of the power steering issue. GM dealers will update the power steering module software, free of charge for owners of the affected vehicles. In 2014, the No.1 U.S. automaker had recalled nearly 800,000 pickup trucks worldwide because of the same problem. GM did not immediately respond to a request for comment.Related Video:

GM reintroduces Tripower name in the worst way possible

Wed, Aug 1 2018

The story of General Motors' use of the Tripower moniker begins way back in 1957, when Semon E. "Bunkie" Knudsen, then General Manager of GM's Pontiac division, directed his engineers to inject more performance into his brand's line of V8-powered automobiles. Fuel injection was an option, but hot rodders flocked instead to Tri-Power (marketed way back when with a hyphen), which grafted a trio of two-barrel Rochester carburetors onto a single intake manifold. A legend was born. And that legend was born of performance. At idle and when full power wasn't required, Pontiac's Tri-Power system used just the middle carburetor, which helped make the setup easier to tune. Depending on the year and model, either a vacuum system or a mechanical linkage opened up the two outer carbs, thereby switching from two barrels to six, and allowing the engine to take in more fuel and air. And it was an easy marketing win – six barrels is better than four barrels, right? Because performance! So, when news filtered in that GM has resurrected the Tripower name, those of us who grew up attending classic car shows and wrenching on old Pontiacs did a double-take. And then we all collectively sighed. Turns out that today's Tripower refers to a trio of fuel-saving measures that include cylinder deactivation, active thermal management, and intake valve lift control, according to Automotive News. And, at least for now, it applies to GM's line of fullsize trucks powered by a 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. We're all for saving fuel whenever possible. And we have zero say in how any automaker chooses to market its products and technologies. But, we'll offer our two cents anyway: Relaunching a storied name from the past is fine. Relaunching a storied name from the past while completely overlooking the reasons the name got famous in the first place is only going to irritate the people who remember the name in the first place. Couldn't they just call this new technology package something else?
