The great things about the car:
Excellent driving car, the 4+3 Doug Nash transmission shifts awesome. Reverse engages flawlessly and overdrive kicks in on command. Brakes and handling suspension are great, Power leather seats are mint with no rips, tears or scuffs. Only 55,800 miles!
The not so good things about the car:
LED dash is burnt out. It is a $300 fix for the parts that can be bought on eBay and installed easily. Drivers interior door skin is cracked and coming apart. Detachable Pioneer face plate cd radio works. It was installed by previous owner, driver passenger speaker doesn't work. Installation of radio may have caused some wiring issues. Horn doesn't work, AC/heat blower motor doesn't turn on and wiper fluid spray doesn't work, but wipers do. Hood support bar to keep hood up is missing ($80 on eBay). Small oil leak, not bad leaves spot on driveway. Car was repainted by previous owner and is starting to flake, peel in some spots, see pics. Could use new window / targa top seals. Car is garaged kept, but if left outside or driven through an automatic car wash water drips in.
For the money this is a great 85 Corvette. Runs really strong and has very low mileage. I want to be totally upfront with the minor issues that are easy fixes. Email me if you have any questions or would like to come look at it before bidding on it. Car is sold as is. Reserve is set at what I believe is a low amount for this car. High bidder is responsible for pick up. $250 deposit and full payment (cash) within 7 days of auction end. Good luck bidding and thanks for looking.

Mary Barra reportedly confirms GM's electric pickup truck plans
Tue, Apr 30 2019According to Motor Authority, CEO Mary Barra confirmed General Motors' intentions to build an electric pickup truck this week. Whether or not it would be an all-new vehicle is unknown. The news comes not even a week after Ford announced a $500 million investment in electric-vehicle startup Rivian. First, electric powertrains were integrated into cars. Then came the crossovers and the SUVs. Naturally, then, the next wave will be pickup trucks. Ford is set to produce an electric F-150, Rivian has the R1T, and now General Motors has reportedly confirmed its plans to introduce a competitor into the field. The article says the topic was brought up in a recent investor call as part of a brief overview of the automaker's electrification strategy. That's where the details end, however, as there is no indication of a timeline, what GM brand would carry the truck, or whether it would be an entirely new product or an adaptation of a current model. The latter seems most likely, which points to the Chevrolet Silverado or the GMC Sierra as possibilities. Chevrolet has been GM's electrification leader this decade with the Bolt and Volt, so an electric Silverado would align well with that messaging and branding. However, an electric pickup would likely be a pricier premium product, which could align it better with GMC. Autoblog has reached out to GM for comment and will update this space when we get a response.

Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction
Sun, 17 Feb 2013It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
