1961 C1 Corvette Convertible
Early Generation Corvette “driver” with removable Hard Top.
This car is told to be originally a California car. The current owner bought it from a Corvette specialty dealer
in Tempe AZ in June of 2006. There was no history provided concerning previous ownership but the car looked good
underneath and drove nicely so he bought it. After the purchase he had the carburetor and the starter rebuilt and
replaced the battery cables, spark plugs and wires. Outside of a recent tune up there hasn’t been much needed in
the last 5k miles. The odometer reads 35,113 now and was at 30,000 when he purchased the car. It is thought that
the 30,000 was more representative of when the restoration was done by a previous owner. The engine is a 350 with
nice power but not the original motor.
This car is a fun car to drive and turns heads everywhere it goes. Not a show car but one with good bones that can
be driven and enjoyed. The exterior is Ermine White with a Fawn beige interior. The transmission is a 2 speed
Powerglide. The removable hard top fits tight except for a small place at the back where the rubber has aged.
There isn’t a soft top at this time.
A fun car to own and enjoy as well as a piece of history.

Motor Trend wheels the 2015 Corvette Z06
Tue, Nov 25 2014The new Chevrolet Corvette Z06 is capable of some absolutely wild metrics. Want proof? Carlos Lago from Motor Trend is here to break it all down. 60 miles per hour? 3.2 seconds. 60 to 0? 91 feet. Lateral acceleration? A staggering 1.16g, a figure that is the highest MT has ever recorded for a vehicle that isn't a race car. It's an utterly astonishing piece of work, this Z06, and just when you think it can't possibly get any more impressive, Randy Pobst hustles an auto-equipped Z06 around Road Atlanta in just 1:30. Aside from the eight-speed auto, Pobst's Z06 had the most aggressive aerodynamic package, the so-called Stage III. Take a look at the 650-horsepower Z06 in Motor Trend's latest video.
Are you the 2014 Corvette Grand Sport?
Thu, 21 Feb 2013When are stripes more than just stripes? Follow up question: Is the product development team at Chevrolet really cocky enough to hide the next C7 Corvette variant in plain sight? This very recently spotted, and ostensibly obscured C7 asks a lot more questions than it answers, but there's at least some evidence to support that it might be the next Corvette Grand Sport.
The first and most obvious tip-off that something is up with this 'Vette revolves around those silver stripes. Obviously the stripes themselves don't necessarily denote a new model. However, when Chevy recently launched its "colorizer" website for the Stingray, there was no provision made for racing stripes - solid colors only.
Grand Sport exhibit number two is actually an incriminating lack of badges. The production Corvettes we've seen to date have all carried Stingray badges on their fenders, just behind the vent. The car seen in these images has no such badges, which is an intriguing omission on an car that looks like a production-spec vehicle otherwise.
