PAINT, BODY, FRAME & SUSPENSION

The car presents itself extremely well. As stated above the car still retains all of its original sheet metal, the car was never hit. A previous owner had a very nice repaint of the original color applied along with new SS side stripes. I believe the white top is still original, I might be wrong. The suspension was entirely rebuilt as part of the normal driving maintenance; all the correct springs and shocks are in place, paint dabs, and driveshaft stripes are still visible. Note the correct gray spiral shocks – very sweet!

The original undercarriage is super clean with no rust repairs to the floors or rockers – all original GM installed sheet metal folks! Check out how clean and rust free this car is!

GLASS, CHROME AND TRIM

The glass is original date coded glass, all windows operate well and line-up perfectly.  The front and rear bumpers are re-chromed and in very good condition.  The stainless trim is in great shape, the headlight bezels, grille, emblems, mirrors, and vinyl top is in great shape. All lighting works as it should including the high/low beams, dome light, reverse lights, tail lights, parking lights, turn signals, four-way flashers, glove light, trunk light, and the license plate light.

INTERIOR

The White (Parchment) colored vinyl interior is 100% complete and in wonderful condition. The seats have been recovered and new seat foams ensure your correct view over the dashboard. The console and glove compartment doors operate well; the seat belts all work, the dash lights are bright; all the gauges report in correctly, the AM-FM radio and rear speakers all work great, as do the wipers, horn, etc. The heater control works on all fan settings and blows hot, and runs cool. As stated before the AC blows ice cubes. All factory gauges work and operate correctly.

 DRIVE TRAIN

The strong running original numbers matching 396 makes 325 horsepower and runs strong thru all gears. It has excellent power and runs extremely smooth and is very easy to drive.  The motor does not smoke, tick or make any noises… again it runs great with no issues; it was rebuilt to stock specs recently (500 miles?). The Turbo 400 Rebuilt along with the engine) is the original #’s matching “born with” transmission and shifts perfectly, this car is an absolute blast to drive!  The car stays cool even in stop and go traffic.  The rear-end is the original “born with” diff that it was assembled with – it’s running a set of 3:08 gears and it’s an “open” rear.

7 major automakers to build open EV charging network

Wed, Jul 26 2023

A new joint venture established by BMW, GM, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Mercedes-Benz and Stellantis will build a new North American electric vehicle charging network on a scale designed to compete with Tesla's industry-benchmark Supercharger network. The 30,000-plus planned new chargers will accommodate both Tesla's almost-standard North American Charging System (NACS) and existing automakers' Combined Charging System (CCS) options, effectively guaranteeing compatibility with the vast majority of current and upcoming electric models — whether they're from one of the involved automakers or not.  "With the generational investments in public charging being implemented on the Federal and State level, the joint venture will leverage public and private funds to accelerate the installation of high-powered charging for customers. The new charging stations will be accessible to all battery-powered electric vehicles from any automaker using Combined Charging System (CCS) or North American Charging Standard (NACS) and are expected to meet or exceed the spirit and requirements of the U.S. National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) program." Critically, the automakers involved will have a say in how the charging tech is implemented, guaranteeing that the hardware will play nicely with each automaker's in-house charging systems. Hyundai and Kia, for example, were hesitant to jump on board the Tesla NACS bandwagon earlier this year over concerns that the Supercharger network is insufficient for powering the two automakers' 800-volt charging systems; similar tech is used by Volkswagen and Porsche.  In addition to providing much-needed capacity and high-output charging for America's growing fleet of electric cars and trucks, the new network will integrate seamlessly with each automaker's in-app and in-vehicle features, rather than forcing customers to use third-party tools and payment systems, as is the case with some existing public charging infrastructure.  "The functions and services of the network will allow for seamless integration with participating automakersÂ’ in-vehicle and in-app experiences, including reservations, intelligent route planning and navigation, payment applications, transparent energy management and more. In addition, the network will leverage Plug & Charge technology to further enhance the customer experience," the announcement said.

GM says hybrid Corvette no laughing matter [w/poll]

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

When Mark Reuss was in LA recently, he sat down to have a few words with the scribes at the Los Angeles Times. When the issue of a hybrid Corvette came up, Reuss answered with "Don't laugh." The General Motors president is a complete fan of the possibility, calling it "attractive" and "really fun," believing it would improve GM expertise and that "people would love it."
Naturally, the president being supportive of an idea doesn't give indication that a hybrid Corvette is on the way. However, with supercars like the Porsche 918 Spyder and Ferrari LaFerrari giving hybrid tech a solid, if remote, place in the performance car world, the inexorable trickle-down of technology means we shouldn't be surprised if and when it does happen.
And now that we have that non-negative half-answer to a speculative question, it would be irresponsible for us not to commence rumormilling for the C8 Corvette. Taking Reuss at his word, the C8 will obviously be a hybrid with all-wheel-drive - the left side wheels driven with electric motors, the right side with the mid-mounted, four-cylinder diesel engine. With coefficient of drag of just .16, figure on a 0-to-60 mile-per-hour time of under 2 seconds and an all-electric range of something like 30 miles at top speed. Don't forget, folks, you read it here first.

Smaller Cars Endure Big Problems On Crash Test

Wed, Jan 22 2014

In a crash test of 11 of the smallest cars on the market, only one vehicle received an acceptable rating. The rest received marginal or poor ratings in the study, providing evidence that supports a widely held notion that smaller cars are among the least safe on the road. No other vehicle group has performed as poorly on a new crash test than these mini cars, says the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the nonprofit group that conducted the testing. The latest results of which were released Wednesday. The Chevrolet Spark was the only car earning an overall "acceptable" rating on the small-front overlap test, and even that vehicle had its shortcomings, IIHS said. "Small lightweight vehicles have an inherent safety disadvantage," said Joe Nolan, the senior vice president for vehicle research at IIHS. "That's why it's even more important to choose one with the best occupant protection. Unfortunately, as a group, minicars aren't performing as well as other vehicle categories." The Mazda2, Kia Rio, Toyota Yaris and certain Ford Fiesta models all received "marginal" overall grades on the test, while the Mitsubishi Mirage, Nissan Versa, Toyota Prius C, Hyundai Accent, Fiat 500 and Honda Fit all earned "poor" ratings. Results from these sub-compact cars fare much worse than vehicles sized just a little bit bigger, IIHS said. Among 17 cars evaluated in the small category, five earned "good" ratings and five more earned "acceptable." Only introduced a year ago, the small-front overlap test has quickly become a key indicator of differences in automotive safety. IIHS introduced it as a way to replicate what happens when the front corner of a vehicle collides with a tree or utility pole at 40 miles per hour. In the real world, these sorts of accidents are more dangerous than others, in part because they bypass the front-end crush zones on most cars.

Without a grade of acceptable or better, they cannot qualify for the IIHS' overall Top Safety Pick+ honor, given annually to the safest models on the market.
