 Up for auction is a 1976 Orange Flame Corvette Coupe. The owner of this great car has owned it since 2009. Prior to that, my best friend owned it. He has had it since 2006. The paint code is 70 (Orange Flame). Interior code is L,64V=Bu. The car is numbers matching. The only thing on this car that was added, was the luggage rack. A few years ago, the paint was freshened up, and holds a great shine.

 I have been taking this Corvette to car shows for the past 3 years, while my 74 Corvette is being restored. It won a lot of awards.

 The Good about the car. Never has been wrecked or rebuilt. It's a little better then a surviver condition. Tires have over 80% of tread on them. Frame is not rusted any where, and the bird cage is in great conditon. Like I said, I have known this car since 2006, and can verify anything since then. Rear brakes were just put on last weekend, so it was ready for the Columbia, Missouri Corvette Show. New radiator, water pump, a arm bushings and seals. All bearings in trailing arms have been rebuilt 2 years ago. The ride is amazing!!!

 The bad (to me). The headers needs to be replaced with stock manifolds. Exhaust pipe needs to be reduced back to 2 and a half inch. (now 3"). To me, the sound is just a bit too much. There is an oil leak from the rear of the engine. Most likely the rear main seal needs replaced. And some one who knows all about vacum lines to carb, to idel better. It runs great, lots of tourque, but at low speeds, seems to be a little rough. This Corvette sits in storage most of the year. It needs to be driven and shown off.

 The interior is very straight. On a scale of 1 to 10, it's a 9.5 or better. New carpet 3 years ago, with new floor matts. The paint condition is a 9.2. There a are couple of places where it needs to be touched up, but wont see them til you look real close. door and hood alignment is perfect. Even the head lights work like they should.

 The gentelman that owns this car now is selling 2 of his 3 corvettes. Another 76,  but it is red with black interior. He is in his mid 70's and is finding it a bit too much to keep up with these cars.

  Transporation is up to buyer, and there is no implied warrenty. I believe he or I will help locate transportaion if needed, but it will be up to the winning bidder. If there are any questions about what I may have missed, just e-mail me, and I will respond as quickly as possible. This Corvette is located in Fulton, Missouri, and if, at any time, can be inspected by you, by making arrangements.

 Thank you for taking time and intrest in this fine 76 Corvette Coupe. Happy Bidding.

I have made a mistake. This is an L-82, NOT an L-88. I am very sorry for this misunderstanding on my part.

GM puts e-commerce shopping in car dashboards

Tue, Dec 5 2017

DETROIT — General Motors on Tuesday said it will equip newer cars with in-dash e-commerce technology, betting it can profit as drivers order food, find fuel or reserve hotel rooms by tapping icons on the dashboard screen, instead of using smartphones while driving. GM's Marketplace technology, developed with IBM, will be uploaded automatically to about 1.9 million model-year 2017 and later vehicles starting immediately, with about 4 million vehicles across the Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac brands equipped with the capability in the United States by the end of 2018, GM said. GM will get an undisclosed amount of revenue from merchants featured on its in-dash Marketplace, Santiago Chamorro, GM vice president for global connected customer experience, said during a briefing for reporters. Customers will not be charged for using the service or the data transmitted to and from the car while making transactions, he said. "This platform is financed by the merchants," Chamorro said. GM will get paid for placing a merchant's application on its screens, and "there's some level of revenue sharing" based on each transaction, he said. It is too soon to say how much revenue GM could realize from the Marketplace system, he said. The GM Marketplace will compete for customer clicks and revenue with hand-held smartphones, which offer a far richer array of applications than the GM system will at the outset. Amazon.com is partnering with other automakers, including Ford, to offer in-car e-commerce capability through Amazon's Alexa personal assistant system. For example, GM will launch Marketplace with just Shell and Exxon Mobil icons in the fuel category. The only restaurant available for in-car table reservations at launch is the chain TGI Fridays, GM said. In addition, there will be apps for parking, and ordering ahead at coffee shops and restaurants such as Starbucks, Dunkin' Donuts and Applebee's. "We will be adding more vendors," with some coming in the first quarter of 2018, Chamorro said. In addition, he said GM plans to expand integration into its vehicles of music, news and other information services. GM also hopes to use its in-car Marketplace connections to expand purchases of products and services, such as additional access to in-car wifi, from its own replacement parts business and dealer network. Customers can "expect to see more service promotions coming through the platform," Chamorro said. Reporting by Joe WhiteRelated Video:

Here's why automakers roll out those Texas-themed pickup trucks

Thu, Sep 29 2016

Every year, automakers with a full-size truck link make a big show of the Texas State Fair, usually involving a reveal of a new model. Sometimes they show a whole new truck, and other times a special edition centered on the Lone Star state. While some people might write this off as a quirk of the industry, others might be wondering, "What's the big deal with Texas?" As it turns out, part of the big deal with Texas is big truck sales. According to Dave Sullivan, product analysis manager at AutoPacific, Texas buys more trucks than any other state in the country. It's not a small margin either. Edmunds.com, one in five trucks sold in the US are sold in Texas. The state also accounts for 15 percent of the country's large truck sales, which is more than twice that of California, the second largest truck market in America. Even when you break down sales only in Texas, trucks are a huge piece of the pie - Sullivan says that a quarter of new vehicle sales in Texas are trucks. One in five trucks sold in the US are sold in Texas. But it's not just sales that make truck builders give attention to Texas. As Sullivan explained, "Pickups are life in Texas." Both he and Hugh Milne, marketing and advertising manager for the Chevy Silverado line, said that trucks are key fixtures in Texas society, as both work trucks and luxury vehicles (or Texas Cadillacs as Milne called them). Milne said Texas is so important in the truck market that if you want to be successful in the rest of the country, "you've got to be successful in Texas." As for the State Fair, it has become a prime location for reveals in part because of the importance of the Texas market and because of how big the fair is. Milne also revealed that the State Fair also hosts its own auto show, so it's an ideal venue for a vehicle introduction. So there you have it. Why do truck builders obsess over Texas? It's because Texas obsesses over trucks. When you have one market that loves your product that much, you give it the attention it deserves.

Driving McLaren's Sports Car and 'The Best Corvette' at the M1 Concourse | AutoblogVR

Wed, Apr 12 2017

There's nothing better than a track day. Great cars on a great track are always great fun. Recently, we had the opportunity to check out the new M1 Concourse in Pontiac, MI, with two of the coolest cars in the game; a McLaren 570S and a Corvette Grand Sport. Driving the 570S was Autoblog senior editor Greg Migliore, and he didn't hold back. Getting behind the wheel of the McLaren, Greg explains that although this is McLaren's idea of a sports car, "it's all relative." Topping out at 204 miles per hour with 562 horsepower, there's no two ways about it: this thing is a monster. While the 570S was fantastic, we had another sports car we wanted to drive and editor-in-chief Mike Austin was just the man for the job. Enter the Corvette Grand Sport. Mike pushed all 460 horses of the 'Vette to the limit and came away impressed with the car, even calling it "the best Corvette." Comparing it to its more powerful sibling, the Z06, Mike goes so far as to say the Z06 has too much power, while the Grand Sport seems to be the third bear's bowl of porridge in the Corvette family... It's just right. We captured all the action of the day with 360° cameras so you can feel like you're right there in the car sitting shotgun with us! You can check out the McLaren and Corvette laps above, but the best way to view them is through the AutoblogVR app, where you can watch the videos on your VR headset or in a nice swivel-y office chair so you can take in the sights all around you. Each month, new episodes will launch on the AutoblogVR App. We'll be posting them here on Autoblog, but for the best experience, head over to the app, which you can download for free from the App store and Google Play. Be sure to try it with a cardboard viewer, too!
