1963 Chevrolet Corvette. Multiple Ncrs Top Flight Awards on 2040-cars
Durango, Colorado, United States
|
1963 Corvette Roadster for Sale In 1963, Chevrolet produced 21,513 of the first year “Stingray” Corvettes. Out of those produced, 10919 were convertibles (roadster) or about 50.2%. The rare engine in 1963 was the much-desired Fuel Injected, 360 HP, 327 C.I. About 12% of the total cars produced had this engine. Second was the base 327 with 250 HP. About 18% of the total cars produced had this engine. The remaining 70% of Corvettes had either a 300 HP or 340 HP 327 C.I. engines. Out of all the Corvettes produced in 1963, only 3475 were painted Daytona Blue or about 8%. When you consider the Daytona Blue paint with the rare 250 HP engine in the convertible model, only about 1.5% (or around 300) of the total Corvettes had this combination. Even less with dark blue interior. I am offering this rare, original 250 HP, 4 speed with posi, Daytona Blue Corvette to qualified buyers. This Corvette has received numerous NCRS Top Flight Awards and was the first Corvette from Colorado to win the NCRS Founders Award. Many say, “numbers matching”. But that does not always mean “original”. This Corvette is both. There is so much of the car that is original, it is too lengthy to mention. For example, besides the engine, it still has the original inspection marks on the tie rod ends. The original daily build number is still visible on the fiberglass. It has original T3 headlights and the list goes on. Every part of the car is in working order, including the original clock. I encourage buyers to contact me for additional information. Some say for a car to be a “survivor”, it must have 50% of the original parts. If this is true, this Corvette is a truly a survivor. I have seen cars of this quality sell for more than $80,000 without buyers commision. So, if you know Corvettes or if your looking for a great investment that can be driven and enjoyed, this very rare, un-restored original car may be just what you are looking for. The car will only be shown by appointment. Only a Certified check or cash will be accepted. A non-refundable certified check or cash deposit of $1500 will be required. The buyer will pay all taxes, shipping and any others fees associated with this transaction. |

2015 Chevrolet Cruze spied on its home turf
Tue, 23 Apr 2013The next Chevrolet Cruze isn't set to go into production for about another year, and we're just now seeing prototypes of the new compact running around here in the States. Not much more has been revealed since we saw the car blasting through the snow in Europe, but we can still clearly see new design elements like the larger grille, slimmer headlamps and redesigned taillamps.
Our spy photographers worked up a composite image of this Cruze prototype alongside the current model, and here, we can clearly see some big visual changes are in store for the new model. The 2015 Cruze's hood slopes downward more dramatically, the windshield is more heavily raked, and the roofline looks more fluid overall. The next-generation Cruze will ride on the new global Delta platform that will also underpin other General Motors vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt and Equinox.
As for what's under the hood, we expect the normal range of gasoline four-cylinder engines (both naturally aspirated and turbocharged), and the compact's new turbodiesel four should carry over, as well. Have a look at the full brace of spy photos in the gallery above.
Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check
Fri, 01 Mar 2013Our apologies to those who've seen this before, but for the rest of the class, how awesome are these pictures of the Vert-A-Pac shipping system General Motors came up with to ship the Chevrolet Vega back in the 1970s? Developed along with Southern Pacific Railroad, GM was able to double the amount of Vega models it could ship by packing them into the unique storage cars vertically.
At the time, rail cars could fit 15 vehicles each, but Chevrolet was able to lower shipping costs by making it possible to ship 30 Vegas per rail car, in turn allowing the price of the Vega to remain as low as possible. Each rail car had 30 doors that would fold down so that a Vega could be strapped on, and then a forklift would come along and lift the door into place. All the cars were positioned nose down, and since they were shipped with all of their required fluids, certain aspects had to be designed specifically for this type of shipping, including an oil baffle in the engine, a special battery and even a repositioned windshield washer reservoir. See for yourself in our image gallery above.
GM's MPG overstatement could affect 2 million vehicles
Tue, May 17 2016Late last week, GM admitted that three of its large SUVs fuel economy window stickers did not match their actual efficiency ratings, and so the vehicles couldn't be sold. The stickers on the 2016 Chevy Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Buick Enclave said their ratings were one to two miles per gallon better than they should have been. Officially, the number of affected vehicles sits at about 60,000. But Consumer Reports makes a good point: what's up with all of the previous model year SUVs that are basically the same vehicle? To wit: the 2016 model year vehicles are not substantially different than the 2015 or the 2014, or even going all the way back to 2007. On the EPA's fuel economy website, all of these older models will "have better stated fuel economy numbers than the new vehicles in GM's dealerships," Consumer Reports noted. CR's best point, and the one that makes the 60,000 number potentially grow to 2 million if all of the vehicles built on this platform are affected, is that "[i]t seems unlikely that the company would change the powertrain on these carryover models so late in their model cycles in a way that would cause a dramatic, negative impact on fuel economy." GM says that earlier model year SUVs are not affected and the EPA did not respond to CR's question about the potential for more discrepancies. We've seen automakers reverse course before, so if GM has to come out with a mea culpa soon, don't be surprised. GM is rushing corrected stickers to dealers so that the SUVs can be sold again, but a fix for the already-sold vehicles could be trickier to solve.
