 Hi all! Up for bidding 1982 Chevrolet Corvette Collector Edition. This is a great opportunity for all you out there to get a rare Corvette and finish it to your liking. This is the last Sting Ray body type Chevy made and what's more significant this is the collector's edition which was limited and there aren't many of them left out there. Here is a short history of this car. I bought from a local guy here that couldn't finish this project. I started working on it and got the interior done by professional at Rod's by Design. They are local to me here and they mostly do show cars. This Corvette is after full off-frame restoration. Mechanically speaking she is flawless. The engine and tranny have been rebuild and since it was done there is only 11500 miles on it. It's very rare to find a Vette like this with this mileage. It roars and purrs wonderfully. The engine is stock however there is Mallory electrical distributor put in it. The AC compressor and air pump have been removed for more power. I do have those parts and they come included in this listing. This vehicle drives awesome and you can feel the power the moment you put the gas pedal down. The exhaust has been modified also. Instead of stock exhaust there are side exhaust pipes which makes her sound absolutely awesome and ferocious. Let me put it this way, if you are at the light and you rave the engine, all heads are turned as the sound is simply spectacular. All the wiring and suspension is also fully restored and practically brand new. The wheels are very exceptional as this is the only year and model of Corvette that those were released. The tires and rims are in perfect condition and show almost no usage. This vehicle was always stored for winter and only driven in the summer. There is no rust anywhere to find. As I mentioned before I have removed all of the interior and gave it to be restored by pros. All the interior is leather/suede. The steering wheel is refinished with suede. The seats are half leather half suede, all the foam and the plastic seat parts have been redone and refinished. There is hand made embroidery of the Corvette logo on the head rests. Door panels have also been redone and refinished. All vinyl/plastic parts including the dash have been repaired and refinished. I left the gauge bezel and console bezel in original brown. There is a metal plate there boasting the name of the first owner of the vehicle and I didn't want to change that. Locks have been removed from the doors for painting. There is a little body work done, specifically on the hood, however she needs buffing and priming before she gets the paint job done. That is the only thing to finish really, the paint job. I have installed some of the interior back together for showing purposes, however I will leave it uninstalled  and save you some work as you would need to remove everything for painting anyway. I was planning to paint her pearl black as I believe it would look really nice with the polished side pipes. Overall, this beauty is 90% finished and there is very little to do. Here are few things that will need attention. The fuel gauge is stuck. I am pretty sure it's not the wiring, however I might be wrong. The hand brake light is on and it's due to the handle not releasing properly. I believe this is caused by an old spring in the handle itself. This doesn't affect the car however, the breaks release fully. The doors weather trims are not there and will need to be installed. Presently, there is no carpet. I have removed the old one. I can order a brand new one at any point and include it with the vehicle, however the buyer needs to choose the color. The car doesn't lock since the locks are removed but they are also included in this auction. Lastly, right T-top is broken. The glass is intact but will need to be replaced as shown on the pics. This was my dream car and I really wanted to finish it, however life happened and I need as much cash as I can get for my dad's surgery so toys got to go and I need to step up. This vehicle with such low mileage can fetch around 25K $ once finished. I have put around 5K in it. I am putting a reserve price on this auction as I want to make sure I get the minimum I want. That being said I am more than happy to answer any of your questions at 312-607-1746 or via eBay. Please make sure you read the description carefully and look through the photos. You are more than welcome to make an appointment with me for a test drive/viewing. I am also interested in offers you might make. This vehicle must go as time is ticking for my dad. There is no warranty on this vehicle. Sold as is with clear title. There are no liens on the title. Please contact me prior to bidding if you have less than 5 stars feedback. This is not to deter new ebayers but I also don't want to get stuck with none paying buyer. I reserve the right to cancel any bid or end this auction at any time. Thank you for your interest and good luck.

Electric Cadillac Lyriq, Chevy Bolt EUV and more GM electric cars are on the way

Wed, Mar 4 2020

GM’s murky and somewhat secretive electric car plan is falling into place, as the company dumped a massive amount of information about whatÂ’s in the pipeline at an event at its Warren, Michigan campus today. New EVs are going to be popping up across the GM brand lineup, with new entries from Chevrolet, Cadillac, GMC and Buick in progress. We also learned some big news about GMÂ’s new Ultium battery tech today, but check out this story for all of those nitty-gritty details. The electric vehicle onslaught will begin with the Cadillac Lyriq, an electric SUV thatÂ’s already been teased out. Naming it the Lyriq is the news today. No explanation for the name was provided, so weÂ’ll have to wait for April to learn more. GM didnÂ’t specifically say if the Lyriq would be launched at the NY Auto Show, but that show (assuming coronavirus doesnÂ’t cancel it) will begin on April 8 this year. Next up in the order of events is the GMC Hummer electric truck that we know will be launching on May 20. This truck will use GMÂ’s modular Ultium battery technology. However, the wait to buy a GMC Hummer will be a long one, as the truck isnÂ’t going to dive into production until fall 2021 at GMÂ’s Detroit-Hamtramck plant. GM revealed that its new modular Ultium batteries can be configured anywhere from a 50 kWh pack to a 200 kWh pack depending on the application. Range is estimated to be about 400 miles on the upper end with the largest battery pack, and GM continues to boast about a 0-60 mph acceleration time of three seconds. Charging estimates for the Ultium battery-equipped Hummer EV were also provided. GM says its truck platform will have 800-volt battery packs and be capable of 350 kW fast-charging. Time estimates werenÂ’t given, but those numbers suggest the truck will be a rapid charger. The Hummer truck on hand, which was the same that previously starred in GMC's Super Bowl spot, showed off removable roof panels that store in the frunk, as well as what appeared to be a version of GMC's Multi-Pro tailgate. It also featured sail panels on the sides, similar to those in front of the bed of the Chevy Avalanche. In addition to the Hummer, expect to see a couple Chevys launching. GM says the refreshed Bolt EV will be launched “in late 2020” with a refreshed interior and what appear to be thicker front seats.

Recharge Wrap-up: Panasonic, Tesla on Gigafactory deal?

Bentley has been awarded the Carbon Trust Standard for reductions of carbon, water use and waste production in manufacturing. The Carbon Trust is an organization that helps groups such as businesses and governments reduce carbon emissions, use of energy and resources, and waste output. From 2011 to 2013, Bentley reduced CO2 emissions by 16 percent per car manufactured, curtailed water use by 35.7 percent, and saw significant waste reductions. Darran Messem of Carbon trust says, "Bentley is clearly passionate about continuing to improve its environmental performance, which is reflected by the fact the company has consistently invested in new technology." Read more in the press release below. Chevrolet is giving 12 Volts to MBAs Across America. The organization will use the range-extended electric cars in its efforts to help MBA students learn from and work with small business owners. As part of the MBAs Across America program's first year, four students drove 8,000 miles to provide entrepreneurs with free business counseling. The program has expanded, and this year, teams of MBAs will use the Volts to travel to 25 cities to offer their services. Learn more about the partnership between Chevrolet and MBAs Across America in the press release below. A professor from the University of Michigan has found fuel cycle analysis to be too flawed to be relied upon for measuring CO2 impacts of transportation fuels. Professor John DeCicco of the university's Energy Institute feels that the flaws in calculating the carbon footprint of liquid fuel production and combustion make such lifecycle analysis impractical. He suggests, instead, to focus to carbon capture. Since capturing CO2 directly from a vehicle is probably never going to happen, DiCicco believes the solution is to capture carbon from the atmosphere in sectors outside of transportation. Says DiCicco, "Research should be ramped up on options for increasing the rate at which CO2 is removed from the atmosphere and on programs to manage and utilize carbon fixed in the biosphere, which offers the best CO2 removal mechanism now at hand. Such strategies can complement measures that control the demand for liquid fuels by reducing travel activity, improving vehicle efficiency and shifting to non-carbon fuels."

No, Cadillac is not killing its flagship CT6 sedan

Sat, Jul 22 2017

Mark Twain never actually said that reports of his death had been greatly exaggerated. But if the Cadillac CT6 could talk, those are the exact words it would use. Speaking to Jalopnik, Cadillac chief Johan de Nysschen confirmed, emphatically, "There is absolutely no plan, at all, to cancel the CT6." In fact, says de Nysschen, the CT6 will soon be the beneficiary of significant investment. "The [CT6] forms a very important part of our product strategy going forward for the brand. The car also has a very major contribution to make to the shaping of brand perceptions, and the transformational process that Cadillac is undergoing." For instance, expect the CT6 to spearhead General Motors' most advanced forays into self-driving automobile technology. Interestingly, though, the Cadillac ATS and CTS sedans probably won't live past their current generations as the automaker 're-balances its sedan portfolio.' Replacement models are "in development" right now, says de Nysschen, which will "much more clearly separate the market position, both in terms of target customer demographics, in terms of market segments and in terms of price points between these three sedan lineups." So, that's confirmation that the Cadillac CT6 is going to stick around for a while. But what of other models cited by Reuters to potentially be killed, like the Buick LaCrosse and Chevy Impala and Volt? Read our take on that here, but suffice it to say that we don't think they're in danger, either.
