1972 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray on 2040-cars
Halstad, Minnesota, United States
Numbers matching 1972 Corvette Stingray, one of few original Pewter silver color code, 350 Base Original Engine
blueprinted to perfection (350/350 hp) by Zeke's Automotive Performance Shop. This Stingray still retains its
original alternator and point system distributor. I think this is one of 617 built with the three speed THM 400.
Production date February 14, 1972 (Valentine's Day). Production Plant, St. Louis, MO. I could go on with the engine
specs, but it would be too long. I could email relevant documentation. Yes, I am sure that the sticker tank is
still intact, because the tank is original and never was manipulated. Stainless Steel calipers, stops on a dime,
poly bushings everywhere, front and rear as well. Yes I have the original valve covers in a box.
Power Steering, Power Brakes, Power Windows, rear window defroster,3 point seat belts, pop out back window.
American Racing Appliance Rims. Original radio (AM/FM push button} is still where the factory installed It along
with factory speakers. It used to work, then it just stopped getting a reception, never tried to see what the
problem was.
I have owned this car since 1985, it has always been garage kept. Never winter driven by me or the second owner
(Kept in a heated garage). Second owner (an older man) lived nearby, he purchased it from a fellow co-worker ,in
1977 (the original owner).
Please keep in mind that this car is 43 years old plus. Carpets are deteriorating in the front area; carpets in
cargo area are ok. Passenger seat is in very good condition; however driver’s seat may need some re-stitching. To
my knowledge car has the original paint with blemishes. Paint is also fading away (especially hood) and chipping
away on the tailgate. I was never able to find a competent shop to repaint this car and have left it to the next
owner to handle it. Basically what you see is what you get, nothing hidden by mediocre paint job.
Car has BF Goodrich tires that have 95+% thread but they have been on the car since 1989, Even though they are in
showroom condition, no cracks nor dry, I think they should be replaced.
Brand new Dyno-Max performance exhaust system that was sitting in boxes for years (discontinued) was finally
installed last year from headers to tail pipe (complete). This car gets a fresh oil and filter change every spring
even though I have only been putting a little over 100 miles every summer in the past few years.

Camaro spy shots show subtly different grille, front fascia
Sun, 03 Feb 2013It looks like there some changes in store for the Chevrolet Camaro - the only thing is that we just don't know what Chevy has up its sleeve. Looking at these spy shots, we'd initially be inclined to think that there is just a minor facelift or a new special edition, but upon closer inspection, there are a few oddities about this car that definitely have us intrigued.
The most obvious difference on this prototype is the slightly restyled front fascia with a smaller lower air inlet and the two-bar grille. Then we get to some of the car's mysterious details. For starters, this fascia has the SS vent above the grille, but it looks to be blocked off. Granted this could just be a one-off piece used for testing. What really piqued our interest was at the rear of the car where it has quad exhaust outlets that are used on the ZL1. Could this be the LS7-powered Camaro that we reported on back in December?
At this point, your guess is as good as ours as to what we're looking at here, so let us know in the comments what you think this could be.
Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]
Sun, 26 Jan 2014If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
GM already raising prices on 2014 Silverado and Sierra pickups
Mon, 14 Oct 2013General Motors must be pretty pleased with sales of its two newest pickups, the GMC Sierra and Chevrolet Silverado, as it's announced price hikes for both models, as part of a planned price tweak.
Prices will be bumped by as much as $1,500, although weirdly, they'll be offset by as much as $1,500 in cash-back offers through the end of October. Fox Business reports that GM spokesman Jim Cain said of the price hike, "With the sell down of the '13 models nearly complete, this price adjustment was planned and is a normal part of business."
The move, as Fox is quick to point out, is an interesting one, as sales of the twin pickups struggled last month relative to the Ford F-Series, while both of GM's crosstown competitors have been aggressively undercutting Silverado and Sierra prices. The F-150 starts at $24,070 and the Ram 1500 comes in at $23,600, not counting any cash on the hood. A base Silverado, meanwhile, retails at $25,575.
