1964 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Roadster/Convertible
This is the quintessential driver quality C2 Corvette Roadster! Beautiful color combination that demands attention
everywhere it goes. I purchased the car from a older gentleman earlier this year who was moving to Nevada and was
unable to bring the car with him. He had owned the car for the past 20years. If he was lucky he was able to put on
a few hundred miles on in a year. I have had the opportunity to drive the car this year and put on well over 2,500+
miles. From cruises in town to 4-5hour round trips to Door County Wisconsin the car has never let me down. I am
reluctant to sell it however another classic car has gained my interest and I simply do not have the garage space
for the both of them.
ENGINE: The engine is known to be a factory replacement 327ci. The casting #'s match a 62'-67' 327. As for the
rest of the engine compartment it has aluminum intake manifold and valve covers. Most other engine components are
original type. The engine compartment is clean and well serviced. I do have receipts for the engine being rebuilt
by a classic car restoration shop in 2008 about 5-6k miles ago.
TRANSMISSION: 4-speed manual Muncie transmission with hurst shifter.
SUSPENSION: The suspension is solid and claimed to be in very-good un-restored condition. Suspension components for
the most part are original. This was very important to me and I had the car inspected prior to me purchasing it for
peace of mind. No worries here!
As for the rest of the car the major interior parts carpets, seats, and door panels are in very good condition. The
gauges, radio, glove box, dash, seat belts, and trim all fit well. The original clock is hidden behind a cover. The
clock could use a rebuild and some tlc. The radio is inoperative and I have not addressed that issue. All gauges
work to my knowledge with the exception of the gas gauge. It has a tendency to read half or 3/4's when it's full
and correct at certain times. The gas tank itself is relatively new and is able to burn pump 91/93 premium fuel.
The exterior of the car is very presentable and grabs attention with the tan interior combination. For the most
part there is no spider cracking or major imperfections. There is scratch or knick here or there however the paint
is in overall good condition for its age. Chrome also is in good condition with little to no oxidization and normal
pitting. There is a painted to match hardtop that compliments the car very nicely. The hardtop is in good shape and
fits fairly well. One could replace weather-strips down the road for better fitment however this didn't bother me.
One of my favorites is the tan soft-top. The soft-top is in excellent shape and was recently replaced including all
new hardware, nuts & bolts. Overall this is not your frame-off restoration 6 figure car.

Watch a camo'ed next-gen Chevy Volt go ice driving
Tue, Dec 23 2014Teasers for the 2016 Chevy Volt continue, The Bowtie showing us in this latest outing how its range-extended hybrid dances on ice and snow. It will only take 42 seconds of your life so don't expect an Arctic challenge, but if you in the snow regions had any doubts about how it will handle the frozen goods, this should help assuage them. The bigger and better, more powerful and faster Volt - able to run regular fuel - will get out from under its camo at the North American International Auto Show next month. For now, enjoy the way it moves its hips in the video above. News Source: Chevrolet via YouTube, Facebook Detroit Auto Show Chevrolet Videos
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray priced from $51,995*
Fri, 26 Apr 2013After months of speculation, Chevrolet has finally revealed the official starting price of the 2014 Corvette Stingray. The base MSRP for the 450-horsepower Stingray Coupe will be $51,995, while the Stingray Convertible will go for $56,995 (*both prices include a $995 destination fee). This means that the price increase from 2013 to 2014 is just $1,400 for the coupe and $2,395 for the convertible - pretty modest increases considering the upgrade in specifications. Of course, neither price accounts for the sort of dealer markup that might grace early C7 window stickers, especially since less than a third of all Chevrolet dealers will be allocated Corvette models to sell at the car's launch.
Now, these prices are for the base car, so if you're wondering how much a fully loaded Stingray will run, Chevy has given us a good indication of that as well. The coupe we saw on display at the Detroit Auto Show (shown above), for example, would run $73,360 including options such as the $2,800 Z51 Performance Package, $2,495 competition sport seats and the $1,795 Magnetic Ride Control option - just to name a few. Stepping up to the 3LT trim level that brings a full leather interior will run an extra $8,005 over the base price.
While $20,000 in options may seem like a lot, this "as-tested" price still has the C7 competitively priced against rival coupes like the Porsche 911 and Nissan GT-R. Speaking of price comparisons, Chevrolet also points out that the C7 Stingray Z51 costs $2,200 less than the C6 Grand Sport while delivering better acceleration (0-60 mph in less than four seconds) and improved track performance (including more than 1 g in cornering).
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible gives us a couple of looks
Sat, 02 Mar 2013Put away your pixel paintbrushes, kids. Pack up your Photoshop. This is the real-deal 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible in its first official images. The droptop Chevrolet will roll into the bright lights of the Palexpo exhibition at next week's Geneva Motor Show, a four-wheeled statement of intent that General Motors is serious about taking its Corvette franchise global.
Chevy isn't providing anything in the way of further details with these two shots, but we've learned at least a couple of things about the car shown here. First off, the example seen in these images is fitted with the optional Z51 Performance Package - something that isn't immediately evident because there's no sign of the coupe model's prominent ductwork on its rear haunches. In order to accommodate the power folding hard tonneau cover, the vents that feed the transmission and differential coolers have been relocated to the underside of the car. The dark paint color on this example also does a good job of muting the contrasting black front fender vents and hood opening - Z51-spec design details that have proven to be somewhat controversial.
One other thing to note: These two shots also display the Stingray wearing different alloy wheels than the split five-spoke design shown at the hardtop's Detroit Auto Show unveiling in January. The simpler, thin five-spoke wheels should do a good job of showing off the Z51's upgraded brakes, and they'll be optional on the coupe as well.
