I am offering for sale a 1961 convertible Chevrolet Corvette.  The color of the car is Jewel Blue and only 855 of the 10800 produced this year were this color.  The exterior of the car has the original paint job and is in fair condition. There are some scratches and defects in the paint but the paint is in surprisingly good shape to be vintage. The car has both the original hard top and the soft top.   The interior is black and blue but is not the original interior.

The car is a convertible and is equipped with both tops.  It is also equipped with the original AM radio and the dash has not been molested and is in good shape.  All of the gauges are real glass and work except for the gas, clock, and radio. The engine and brakes were  rebuilt in June 2013, and I have the receipts for the work. The car is running and is drivable.

The car was purchased in 1983 from the original owner and was stored in a metal building from 1983 until 2013.  The odometer is showing 23,999 miles and I was told is the correct mileage.  Since being purchased, I have rebuilt the engine, all of the brake system, and the fuel system.  All of the fluids have been changed and all of the lights are in working order. The car is running and can be driven. 

The car is located in Guntown, Mississippi and can be shown by appointment. My number is 662 871-9299 if you have any specific questions concerning the item.  The car is being sold "as is, where is," and no written, verbal, or implied warranty exist.  The car is being offered locally as well and I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. 

 

THIS IS A NO RESERVE AUCTION and feedback will be left on the buyer. 

 

Payment terms, $500.00 US dollars are to be sent via paypal within 48 hours of the closing of the Auction.  The balance of the Bid is due in CASH when the item is picked up.   I have purchased and sold many cars on line and I am experienced in the closing process. 

This is a wonderful opportunity for a Corvette enthusiast to own a rare piece of automobile history and a beautiful piece of artwork.  Good luck bidders.

GM sweetens military discount for Buick, Chevy and GMC

Sun, 06 Oct 2013

American servicemen and women interested in a new vehicle from Chevrolet, Buick or GMC now have a bit more incentive to head down to their local dealer, as General Motors has announced plans to improve its military discount program.
The new GM Military Discount Program offers eligible consumers a new Chevy, Buick or GMC at invoice pricing, which in some cases can take very large chunks out of a car's retail price. When factored in with other incentives, most of which are available with the Military Discount, the bargains are thick on the ground for members of the US armed forces.
GM's Retail Sales and Marketing Support general manager, Chuck Thomson, said, "GM has long supported the military and military families, and we hope this simplified and enhanced discount will show our appreciation for their service and help make it easier for them to own one of our great new vehicles." The program is open to all active duty and reserve members in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, National Guard and Coast Guard, as well as veterans that have been out of the service for less than a year. Military retirees and their spouses are also eligible for the discount.

Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting?

GMC Hummer EV SUV first drive, RIP Camaro, Ferrari Roma Spider | Autoblog Podcast # 773

Fri, Mar 24 2023

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by News Editor Joel Stocksdale. They start off with one of the week's biggest official news items — the impending death of the sixth-gen Chevrolet Camaro. On the subject of powerful American cars, they pivot to a teaser from Stellantis execs that there are big things ahead for its Dodge Charger SRT Daytona Banshee concept. From there, they look at Ferrari's new topless Roma and then get into Ford's multi-billion-dollar electric vehicle pivot. Speaking of expensive EVs, Joel just got back from driving the new GMC Hummer SUV. He also had the new F-150 Lightning Pro in his driveway, and that's followed by Greg's update on Autoblog's long-term Toyota Sienna.  Autoblog Podcast # 773 Get The Podcast Apple Podcasts – Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast in iTunes Spotify – Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast on Spotify RSS – Add the Autoblog Podcast feed to your RSS aggregator MP3 – Download the MP3 directly Rundown News Chevrolet Camaro production will officially end after 2024 model year Dodge CEO teases more to come from Charger SRT Daytona Banshee Ferrari Roma Spider returns a front-engined soft top to the lineup Ford Model e losing billions as it says EV unit should be seen as startup What we're driving Ford F-150 Lightning Pro 2024 GMC Hummer EV SUV 2023 Toyota Sienna Platinum AWD Feedback Email – Podcast@Autoblog.com Review the show on Apple Podcasts Autoblog is now live on your smart speakers and voice assistants with the audio Autoblog Daily Digest.
