New shocks all the way around. We have the spare tire for the vehicle; we took it out of the car to take photos of the battery box. Factory original jack and handle with new tool kit (reproduction) come with the car.

Originally sold new in California, the car was incredibly solid when it first arrived to us. Our shop installed new battery box sheet metal along with tow hook--please see pictures on link, it is a work of art! Floor is 75% original-we noticed some minor perforations on passenger side rear quarter pan and we replaced this section. We also installed new longitudinals, not because they were rusty but because they were dented, along with new jack spurs.  The original undercoating was stripped and new undercoating was sprayed on the car.

Door and hood gaps are excellent all the way around, doors close with a nice "thunk" and maintain an even gap all the way around.  New rubber stripping and freshly chromed window frames and top of the door chrome molding along with freshly chromed quarter window frames set the car off. New window rubber gaskets and felts were installed. Freshly chromed bumper guards along with new deco strips on front and rear bumper along with body side molding have been installed. New front lights and grills as well as new rear lights and emblems.

Newly installed red leatherette interior per COA and German Square Weave carpet set from Autos International set off the interior nicely. New rubber floor mat and rear mats also installed. New aluminum sill plates and rubber thresholds installed.

Aetna Blue paint was Willhoit color matched and is base coat clear coat, with 4 coats of base and 4 coats of clear. The paint on the car is striking.

Sunroof is a manual sunroof with original Golde sunroof handle. The sunroof opens effortlessly and easily and smoothly slides along its track. It closes correctly lifting the sunroof panel evenly with the exterior roof line.

We have taken over 250 photos of the car. Since we are limited to 24 photos on Ebay, we have posted numerous photos of the floor and longitudinals and battery box as well as closeups of the exterior body and interior. We have also posted 2 videos of the car running.

Can a Corvette really be compared to a 911 with options costing more than the Chevy?

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

In this latest video from Drive, Chris Harris asks straight away, "Can you still compare a base Corvette to a Porsche Carerra?" That's an particularly interesting question in this film, as the 911 in question is a 400-horsepower Carrera S model that's been fitted with $60,000 in options. Base price of a Corvette Stingray? $51,995. Harris' tester features an automatic and some other goodies that push it right up to that $60,000 range. So yes, the options on the Porsche cost as much as this entire 460-hp Chevrolet.
Harris stresses that this isn't a full review, but he does exercise both cars in a more composed manner before reverting to his traditionally exuberant driving style. The impressions are, as always, spot on, with Harris favoring the pointy nature and V8 power of the Stingray, while enjoying the gearbox (Porsche's exceptional PDK transmission) and just about everything else on the 911.
Take a look below for the latest video from Drive, and let us know if you agree with Mr. Harris' views on these two sports cars.
