Here's a story of a lovely lady..... Granny was the original owner and owned this car until 1988. It was barn kept by her son until 2001. I purchased it and drove her occasionally for about 8 years. I began restoring her in 2009. All metal on the car is solid or brand new including floors and fenders. 194 in line 6 Engine and 3 speed (on the column) transmission was rebuilt about 1200 miles ago. All new interior including seat belts with "Body by Fisher" plates on them, new paint (original color/polar white), and complete new mechanical parts all around including steering, suspension, and brakes. all new wiring under the hood including a refurbished original generator (no alternator). This car is totally original all numbers match. I've got parts in the trunk, some duplicates/extras... some need installed on the car. It still needs a few things done here and there including new exhaust, weatherstripping, post rubbers and felts on doors (some parts in the trunk). Passenger window is off track but does go up and down as you can see in the pictures. visors need re-done, antenna needs installed (I have it) hydraulic pump for the top needs hooked up (top does go up and down manually as seen in pictures). There is one small ding in the driver side near the windows but not very noticeable, needs driver side sill plate, and new heater core. Other than those few imperfections and unfinished things, she sure is pretty, and very fun to drive. Very smooth running. I have become sick and had a few surgeries and lost a lot of work and clientele. Time to find this old girl a new home where she deserves to be kept and finished properly as I am unable to do so. The winning bidder will save our family from serious financial difficulties and help us live a bit more comfortably. My loss is going to be your tremendous gain as I already have $20,000 into this beauty. Please come see this car and drive it before bidding. I do not want any unhappy third owner of her. She may not be a show car, but sure will treat you right while you drive her around town or in your local parade. Clear MO title (Originally from PA but was covered or garaged its whole life). Please email with any questions or to set up a viewing, or text me 417-two5two-43two6. No reserve. Car is for sale locally for a set price and could go before auction end. $500 deposit via PayPal at end of auction balance in cash at time of pick up. Will hold car for ten days after auction end unless other arrangements are agreed upon. Should be trailered, but can be driven home! I can pick you up at either Springfield Branson airport for $75 or St. Louis airport for $175 if you want to drive her home. I am located in Willow Springs MO 65793.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:

Corvette Z06. Nissan GT-R Nismo. Motor Trend Head 2 Head. 'Nuff said.

Wed, Feb 11 2015

Here is a video we've been waiting for, one that will get broadband fiber optic cables glowing like Hooker headers on a dyno. For Episode 62 of Head 2 Head, Motor Trend throws the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 into the bear pit with the latest Nissan GT-R Nismo. What comes out of that is seventeen minutes of don't-look-away video. We're only going to give you the specs. The 3,527-pound Z06 gets on with a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 with 650 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque, applied to the wheels via a seven-speed manual transmission. With the Z07 performance package appended it has a front splitter and winglets, and a three-section rear spoiler among its aero aids. The tested model also wore carbon ceramic brakes, which helped push its $89,985 MSRP out to $105,210. The 3,881-pound GT-R Nismo plays the underdog – again Â– with a 3.8-liter twin-turbo V6 spitting out 600 hp and 481 lb-ft, yoked to a six-speed dual-clutch transmission. The GT-R left its 'performance bargain' days behind years ago, and this top-shelf version starts at $151,585 but has almost everything it can get, so the as-tested price was only a skosh more at $151,880. We're not going to tell you any more than that. Click on the video and let Carlos Lago and his two mean minions tell you a story you won't soon forget.
