1975 Corvette stingray...This car is much nicer than most.....extremely well optioned with T-tops,tilt/scope...burgandy leather interior, a/c (has a leak but is complete), power windows and am/fm stereo as well as turbo 400 trans with limited slip differential...the 350 engine has been updated to more horsepower(previous owner) and now has edlebrock manifold and carb...I own my own shop and am a liscensed rebuilder with 40 years experience, I bought this car in 1993 from a local recycler that I did much biz with then who'd set it aside as "too nice to part out"... and I agreed with that, being that the damage was only the front bumper and bought it...however besides regular shop buisness, I was involved doing a frame off resto on my 55 nomad and wound up selling it to a friend....that friend stripped the car of the old paint repalced front and rear(due to deterioration,not accident damage) bumpers with fiberglass ones and was preparing to to repaint it when he got hit on his motorcycle and hurt bad enough to have to abandon his efforts and sell the vette, he let me know this and sure enough another friend (the current owner) bought the car and had me finish the work that had been started. we finished the car in the original inca silver.. that was in 2006....since then he and his wife have enjoyed the car during good weather and kept it stored in heated garage during winter, he's selling the car because he's gotta get a kid thru college .....Now a word about rebuilt titles.....This rediculous legislation was inacted around the mid to late 80's as a deterrant to car thieves reselling stolen parts and switching vin tags ect. and as a way to regulate salvage yards and keep them honest....the same politicians also claimed there would be disclosure for consumers to make them aware of potential shoddy workmanship....in doing so any car deemed a total loss by the insurance companies would be branded no matter what the damage....well, in 1995 you could buy a corvette for as little as $3500.00-$5000.00 yet the parts and labor to fix these at the time lowly corvettes was the same as fixing a high dollar new or 50's-60's collector corvette thus it was easy for the insurance companies to say we're gonna total it at 75% total value required and give the owner a few grand and walk away....profit being the only motivation on their part...thus leaving many good old vettes like this in the lurch.... all the consumer really needs is the lemon law....shoddy work happens everyday on all things, I've fixed many cars for insurance companies that belonged in the junk yard and seen many cars get totaled that should'nt have....all this being said this car has a proven track record having been "in the family" for over a decade being used, loved, driven,shown and still looks gorgeous, it has gained value, regardless of the branded title. as it will for you. which I might add this car required no state inspection of vehicle due to it's classic status, proving what I said about theives being the real reason for branding titles....if you're in a state that does not brand titles you will have a clean title when transferred if your state even issues titles for vintage vehicles....I agreed to write this history for my friend Mike who is the current owner and is responsible for this listing....he's taken many pictures and has one of before paint job so you can see for yourself what was done....this is one of the best old vettes out there with one paint job done correctly in the original color and the rest of the car is original and has #'s matching engine/driveline and in excellent condition.....this car has been driven and has some minor imperfections. If you have any questions please ask.

2016 Chevy Silverado puts on a better face
Mon, Jul 13 2015When Chevrolet introduced the redesigned Silverado pickup for 2014, you, our loyal readers, gave the new truck's front-end a lukewarm response. Aside from saying it was ugly, one commenter came to the far more damning conclusion that this brand-new vehicle already looked dated. For 2016, Chevy has attempted to address opinions like that, issuing a comprehensive facelift to its bread-and-butter pickup. Designers cut way back on the chrome for 2016, fitting a body-color strip across the middle of the grille and going to a single-headlight design. Combined with twin LED running lamps, the new look is much more modern while still harkening back to the retro-ish look introduced a few years back. The new truck also gets a much more muscular and aggressive hood, while the front bumper is significantly more modern, and features vertical housings for what look like LED foglights. The bad news, here, is that there's only one picture, shown above. We have no idea what changes Chevy has made to the rear of the pickup, nor do we know what other versions of the truck beyond the Z71 seen here may be available. The Bowtie brand did, however, confirm that we'd see a wider application of the eight-speed automatic transmission, as well as a new version of the MyLink infotainment system, which will play nice with both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Look for much more on the freshened Silverado when it makes its official debut this fall. Until then, check out the press release and hop into Comments. We'd love to hear what you think about this facelift. 2016 Silverado: The New Face of Strong - Bolder, more sculpted look reflects Silverado strength, dependability - Available support for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay - Expanded use of 8-speed transmissions; additional safety technologies DETROIT – Chevy Trucks are on a roll, with Chevrolet pickup sales up 32 percent so far this year. Chevrolet intends to strengthen this momentum with significant updates for the 2016 Silverado 1500 full-size pickup. "The redesigned 2016 Silverado will build on Chevy Trucks' legacy of dependability. It will feature a more muscular appearance and offer new customer-focused technologies," said Sandor Piszar, marketing director for Chevy Trucks.
The Fate of the Furious music video shows how much Demons love donuts
Fri, Mar 3 2017The new Dodge Demon is leaking into everything related to The Fate of the Furious in the lead-up to both the car and the film's debut in just over a month. The latest teaser involves Demons doing donuts and burnouts in the Get Off music video, with copious amounts of both tire smoke and hip hop to accompany the tire-shredding shenanigans. It also gives us a look at some of the film's other cars. Get Off is a song by Travis Scott, Quavo, and Lil Uzi that's featured on The Fate of the Furious soundtrack, which is out now. The teaser for the music video features a pack of Dodge Challengers - both Demon and non-Demon spec - along with a line of non-SRT related products. From what we can see, the movie will have a Scion FR-S/Toyota 86, a highly modified C2 generation Chevrolet Corvette, and a Mercedes-AMG GT S. In typical over-the-top fashion, the final shot shows a submarine bursting through ice in pursuit of several cars, including a Subaru WRX. We can't see much else as the full music video hasn't been released, but expect a few more teasers once it does. The Fate of the Furious debuts Friday, April 14, just days after the Dodge Demon's debut at the New York Auto Show.

2016 Chevy Camaro Convertible coming on June 24
Mon, Jun 22 2015With the new sixth-generation Chevy Camaro now upon us, Chevrolet is gearing up to drop the top on the new 2016 Camaro Convertible, previewed in this latest teaser video. There isn't much to go on from this short clip – the new convertible will feature a fully automated folding roof that will retract at the push of a button. Beyond that, we expect it to carry over the same features as the hardtop version we've already seen. Chevy is due to unveil what it calls "the most innovative Camaro Convertible ever" just a couple of days from now, so watch this space.
