* since the last time I've listed my car here I fixed the Fan switch only working in the high position, read text below* Hey C4 fans, July 7th of this year was my 20th year owning this my first Vette, I am the second owner of this Car, I bought it sight unseen (well after I had it appraised) from a Guy in Tolland Connecticut, yeah I took a chance with buying a vehicle without hands on with it but it turned out to be a dream and relatively problem free car. of course I don't recommend this practice all you serious buyers have to see this one in person! So from Michigan I Flew out to connecticut and drove it home , oh what a drive. at the time I've never ridden in a Vette let alone drove one. for a 23 year old kid this was a dream finally owning a Corvette. Unfortunately I'm Selling the car to fund a cross country move and have no place for it. The Car has always been garaged kept well beside's the extended weekend trips to the national Corvette shows. Sunny days and Cars shows has been the miles of my 86. Alright, the notes on the Car and what comes with the price - As of a couple weeks ago when I took it out for its possible last photoshoot it has 59,285 miles - I had the front urethane bumper replaced with a American Custom Industries Fiberglass bumper last summer also during that time and paint of the new bumper I had the hood repainted by ACI as well ($2800) . soo the new owner is practically getting a new 86 Vette from the front. that new paint has less than a hundred miles on it. basically Have'nt driven the car since the new paint cause I knew I'd be selling it this year. - The next owner is getting all my receipts and maintenence records for the last 20 years - As you see on the repo window sticker the car came with the two targa top option and you get that Body colored one, that is in excellent condition I think I've only had it on the Car twice, as I perfered the lighter blue tint top on it. but you'll get both - 1996 I changed the Valve covers cause the originals were losing there color, but I'm throwing those in those originals for the new owner in case they want to send them off for refinishing someday. - Never been in a accident but I had the rear bumper from the door jams back repainted (ACI again) due to someone bumping into the rear bumper in a parking lot so insurance covered that mark. gotta love insurance for all that fresh paint just for a mark and scratch. that was about 14 years ago that was repainted and still looks great, the rest of the exterior car and interior and engine components are original color and condition - 1998 I had the 2 3/4 inch cat back Power Effects adjustable exhaust installed, 5 position adjustable for sound and back pressure - 1998 Installed adjustable rear spring bolts from Vette brake and products. to lower the wheel well gap to match the front. - 2003 installed AFS 5 spoke ZR1 rims with 275's Kumo tires at 43,350 miles also same day installed GT Rotors ZR1 Big Brake upgrade kit, 13 inch rotors and twin piston calipers front. rears rotors in that kit are same size as OE. - 2003 New clutch, throughout bearing, clutch slave cylinder and turned flywheel, don't know why that went out cause I honestly say that I've never turned a rear wheel on this car, always have driven my takeoffs respectively. does'nt mean I've never gotten in the L98's awesome torque range every time I've driven it wink wink. but yeah I've babied the clutch and was stumped why it wore out soo early in miles. - The stereo I replaced with a GM CD player works great , the stock speakers work but like most Bose C4 speaker's from that time the internal amps are distorting the music at times. soo that might need addressing if you love your Radio Audio. - Everything else on the Car works EXCEPT the heater , in fact the heater has'nt worked for like 16 years, I figured it was'nt a priority to me at the time as I knew I'd probally never be driving the car in cold weather. *And like I said at the start of this text here, I've fixed the heater/AC blower fan only working in the high position I got on the ball and ordered a Blower motor resistor switch simple $20 part took me all but 3 minutes to install, turned on the car and still only working in the high position, ok suggestion 2 was to clean the blower motor relay switch, sure enough the thing was filthy with oil, more specific armour all type of products I've been using to clean the engine compartment over the last 20 years, So I cleaned it with CRC electrical cleaner product I had sure enough fan speed control works again low medium and high woohooo. Soo just the heater does not work, from the research I've done its the blend door not working and that part is hard to come by and is not made anymore, so the new owner might want to address that, or not like I said I've never had the need for the heater with the climates or seasons I drove in. - there seems to be a tiny hole in the original almost 29 year old Cat before the Y pipe as you can hear that leak, so might be on the next owners to do list as well. - Engine is tight and fresh and strong pulling shows no sign of blue or black smoke, besides the Power Effects exhaust mod, for power I've only added a cut out air cleaner cover and K&N and throttle body airfoil to help with the air in. everything else on the Engine is stock for power. - There is a minor oil leak underneath, no clue where it is coming from, so you will need to park over a drip pan if you have a nice garage floor or address that leak. - The blemish on the title with the miles not saying original is my own stupid mistake, I moved from Mi to Ohio almost 4 years ago and I have never been to a title office to title a car before, the titles on the 4 cars I've owned in my life have always been handled by dealerships or banks and I was handed them to me in those transactions and I've never moved out of state so no clue what to expect when I took the old titles of my two cars (daily driver and this Vette) into the office. They asked me for the miles I said crap so I had to guess of what I last saw on the odometers I lady at the office did warn me it might be a issue if I were to sell the cars I said no biggie title them up, well turns out law states I can't re brand the title as actual miles (I tried and made a trip back to the office) BUT I assure you these are original miles and I have all service records some showing mileage along the way the last almost 20 years of ownership of this car. you will have all those records with the purchase. this car was never my daily driver, as I said before just babied on sunny days and cruises to car shows. For a Almost 29 year old Corvette this car is solid and well preserved. I believe it won't take much money to make it a almost perfect 86. I loved everything about Corvette over the years and it was a dream to finally own one. I've made lots of friends over the years caravaning to various Car shows, this car has brought me much happiness because of that. just have'nt driven it enough the last 10 years or so to warrant keeping it around on my move out west. I've moved onto different hobbies. I Hope the next owner has the same passion I once did for this car and hobby. The Auction might end Early as I have listed it locally The thing I'll miss the most is walking up to this Vette (and its probally 100's of coats of Zaino reflection haha) I have 107 HQ pics loaded in my Flickr account email me and I'll send it along capnsteve19@gmail.com Thanks for looking and happy bidding Steve |

New Chevrolet Silverado to be revealed on Facebook on Thursday
Tue, 11 Dec 2012There's not much to see here, but if you're one of those waiting for the reveal of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, above is the teaser image that Chevrolet posted on its Facebook page. We've seen the truck in form-fitting camo before, and even less can be made out here beyond those seriously punchy Silverado-esque fenders and the knowledge that the projector-beam headlamps teased previously do indeed work. We'll have to wait until Thursday for a full perusal of the "bold exterior design" and "careful attention given to every detail" we've been promised.
Gathering intel and rumors, magnesium and aluminum contribute to the Silverado's weight loss plan, the purported "High Country" top-tier trim will contribute to luxury pickup truck competition and profit margins and the next-generation small-block V8 will contribute to improved fuel economy. On the engine note, there have been rumors of available V6 engines, and when Facebook user John Jones asked "Where's your answer to that EcoBoost Chevy?", the Bowtie replied "stay tuned on the 13th. We think you'll be pleased...".
Along with the "Raise the Bar" tag, Chevrolet says of the Silverado, "You asked, we delivered." You can watch the reveal live on Chevrolet's Facebook page at 9:30 am EST, this Thursday, December 13. The GMC Sierra 1500 will also be there, and we'll see both in person at the Detroit Auto Show in January.
Recharge Wrap-up: Tesla P85D upgrades coming soon, lease a Chevy Volt for $149 a month
Wed, Dec 31 2014CarCharging has raised $6 million from shareholders and has restructured to save cash. The EV charging company plans to expand further in 2015 - with an eye toward achieving profitability - in part by investing in technology and "unlocking the value of our significant equipment inventory," says CarCharging CEO Michael D. Farkas. The group expects to reduce administrative costs by 40 percent, and has hired an interim Chief Financial Officer to help carry out its plans for growth. CarCharging raised the cash through offering convertible preferred stock to its shareholders, whom Farkas thanked "for their passion and patience." Read more in the press release below. Rydell Chevrolet in Los Angeles is offering Chevrolet Volt leases for $149 per month. In a video ad, Rydell offers the Volt for $169 a month with $3,390 due at signing, but another ad shows the offer at $149 a month with $3,550 down or $248 per month with $0 down. Rydell Chevrolet will ship the car anywhere in the lower 48 states. It also appears they offer cupcakes. See Rydell's video below, or read more at Inside EVs. Tesla will upgrade the Model S P85D with higher performance and top speed. The free update, which is due "in the next few months" according to a statement from Tesla, will raise the electronically limited top speed from 130 to 155 miles per hour. "Additionally, an over-the-air firmware upgrade to the power electronics will improve P85D performance at high speed above what anyone outside Tesla has experienced to date," Tesla says. The update will be available for the lifetime of the car, which includes subsequent owners. Read more at Green Car Reports.

VW, Rivian, Nissan, BMW, Genesis, Audi and Volvo lose EV tax credits starting tomorrow
Mon, Apr 17 2023The U.S. Treasury said Monday that Volkswagen, BMW, Nissan, Rivian, Hyundai and Volvo electric vehicles will lose access to a $7,500 tax credit under new battery sourcing rules. The Treasury said the new requirements effective Tuesday will also cut by half credits for the Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Rear Wheel Drive to $3,750 but other Tesla models will retain the full $7,500 credit. Vehicles losing credits Tuesday are the BMW 330e, BMW X5 xDrive45e, Genesis Electrified GV70, Nissan Leaf , Rivian R1S and R1T, Volkswagen ID.4 as well as the plug-in hybrid electric Audi Q5 TFSI e Quattro and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) electric Volvo S60. The Swedish carmaker is 82%-owned by China’s Zhejiang Geely Holding Group. The rules are aimed at weaning the United States off dependence on China for EV battery supply chains and are part of President Joe Biden's effort to make 50% of U.S. new vehicle sales by 2030 EVs or PHEVs. Hyundai said in a statement it was committed to its long-range EV plans and that it "will utilize key provisions in the Inflation Reduction Act to accelerate the transition to electrification." Rivian declined to comment and the other automakers could not immediately be reached for comment. Treasury also disclosed General Motors electric Chevrolet Bolt and Bolt EUV will qualify for the full $7,500 tax credit. GM said earlier it expected at least some of its EVS would qualify for the $7,500 tax credit under the new rules, including the 2023 Cadillac Lyriq and forthcoming Chevrolet Equinox EV SUV and Blazer EV SUV. Treasury said all GM EVs will qualify. Earlier, Ford Motor and Chrysler-parent Stellantis said most of their electric and PHEV models would see tax credits halved to $3,750 on April 18. Treasury confirmed the automakers' calculations. The rules were announced last month and mandated by Congress in August as part of the $430 billion Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). The IRA requires 50% of the value of battery components be produced or assembled in North America to qualify for $3,750, and 40% of the value of critical minerals sourced from the United States or a free trade partner for a $3,750 credit. The law required vehicles to be assembled in North America to qualify for any tax credits, which in August eliminated nearly 70% of eligible models and on Jan. 1 new price caps and limits on buyers income took effect.
