Nice 1986 low mileage Corvette Coupe. 81876 miles. The engine is the tuned port, fuel injected L-98. In 2010, $2000.00 was put into the engine. A bearing had spun, so the engine was taken out and steamed cleaned the block and the crank was turned down .010 and new rod, main and cam bearing were put in. New high volume oil pump was also put it in as were new injectors (Ford Borg Warner). They atomize better with 3 orifices as opposed to the single for the Vette injectors. New water pump, thermostat, timing chain, serpentine belt, tensioners etc. Also a new rack and pinion. I traded valve covers with our 73 Blazer as I thought the orange color gave the under the hood look a little more color and people liked it. The oil pressure is very high all the time having to do with the high performance oil pump and of course the new bottom end and has a heavy duty radiator and a radiator boost fan in addition to the regular radiator fan. (fans are designed to turn on at 229 degrees), Corvette want high engine temperatures for best performance. The new thermostat is 190 degrees. It has an engine oil cooler and the performance handling package and includes the Delco-Bilstein shock absorbers. It has power drivers seat, power locks, power windows, removable plexiglass roof panel (blue tint) which is weather checked (looks like little cracks) from age but still very service able), Electronic air conditioning control and converted to 134 and blows cold. It has cruise control, the stereo system is Delco-Bose and the radio/CD player is after market Sony. The retractable antennae works fine. The transmission is the Turbo Hydra matic 700 R-4 4 speed automatic. The car fast and the engine has a nice powerful sound to it. The performance handling package (basically heavy duty) gives it a slightly higher stance than the regular Corvette 12821 were give this option. (looks Cool). We averaged around 14 to 17 MPG in the city and up to 20 to 24 in the country. It has a new block heater. We never ran it in the winter as it was stored in a heated building. There were only 128 Vettes made with the blue metallic color. The tires have maybe up to 20000 miles of wear left on them. They are the larger P255/60VR16. It's a real fun car and handles and runs superbly. There are a couple of dings and I've included them in the photos. The major one is around the upper part of the riders side wheel well which shows it in photo #8. It needs to have a little more professional attention to it and the right turn guide light lens needs to be replaced with an original lens. Photo#9 shows the rider's side rear where the paint had pealed off slightly. Photo #10 shows chips by driver's door. Photo #11 shows a scuff on rear driver's side and photo #12 show chips above driver's side wheel well. The interior color is called Graphite. Photo 20 and 21 show the roof cover off and stored in the rear. We hate to part with it but my son is in college now and I'm a disabled Vietnam vet and we need the money, so it has to go. Remember this is a 28 year old car, but I believe one of the finer examples around, most of it's life has been in storage. The NADA guide values this Vette at $19750 for high retail. The average retail is $11700 and low retail is $7282. Value wise we feel this Vette is somewhere between the high and average retail and way, way above low retail in value. Purchaser will need to put a down Payment of $500 within 24 hours to Paypal. The remainder at pickup or within 7 days by way of cash or certified funds. The sale is for "as is' where is". The vehicle will need to be picked up within 2 weeks as we are loosing our storage for it. If payment in full is not made within 7 days then after the 7th day it will be relisted for sale or sold to the next highest offer. I can deliver the vehicle at a cost of $1.00 per mile, please contact me if you have plans for that so we can make arrangements. We have this car for sale locally so the Ebay listing may end early. Thanks for looking and if you have any questions please contact me.

These are the 'Greenest' and 'Meanest' cars in 2015
Fri, Feb 6 2015As has become tradition, the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) has come up with a ranking of what it refers to as the "greenest" cars of 2015, and, by way of contrast, a list of the so-called "meanest" cars, so those who value eco-friendliness over all else can choose which vehicles they should or should not consider buying. As you may expect, electric cars make up the majority of the greenest cars on the list, but, perhaps surprisingly to many, the Tesla Model S didn't make the cut. It's worth noting, too, that where the electricity an owner uses to charge their electric vehicle has a big impact on its overall environmental impact. "A car that is charged using electricity generated from natural gas or renewables is going to have significantly less impact on the environment than one charged on a coal-heavy grid," says ACEEE lead vehicle analyst Shruti Vaidyanathan. The ACEEE's list for 2015 looks very different than it did in 2014. It's an interesting collection, though – and we're sure this goes without saying, really – we'd recommend doing a bit more research into each vehicle and how it might fit into your daily life before making any purchase decisions. Click here to see the ACEEE's list of the Greenest and Meanest vehicles sold in the United States in 2015.

Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.
GM Halts Sale Of Most Chevy Cruze Models
Fri, Mar 28 2014General Motors has told dealers to stop selling some 2013 and 2014 Chevrolet Cruze compact cars. But the company won't say why. Dealers say stop-sale orders are routine and almost always made to fix a safety problem. They received the order in an e-mail Thursday, but no reason was given. The move comes as GM deals with fallout from a delayed recall of 1.6 million older small cars to fix an ignition switch problem. The company says the switches can slip out of the run position and shut down the engine. That causes loss of power steering and brakes and disables air bags. GM says the problem has been linked to 31 crashes and at least a dozen deaths. Spokesman Greg Martin says he has no details on the Cruze.
