Up for sale today with much sadness is my 1987 corvette. I have driven and owned my fair share of cars and for the money I don't think that you can find a car that is even close to as fun to drive as the C4 corvette but if you are looking at this listing chances are you already know this. I spent 2 years trying to find a car that had most of its major components working as well as a car that was high optioned for the time this car has the rare Delco Bose stereo, digital climate control electric seats and windows mirrors and the clear Targa roof and most importantly and Atuo transmission but why an auto in a sports car, these cars from 1984 to 1989 had a 4 + 3 trans that always had some sort of problem while the Autos were problem free. This car is in nice shape for a 25+ year old car but its shows its age in places. The car will also need a good motor tune up and it does have a lifter tic but it still runs and drives fine. If you would like to view the car please send me an email with you name and phone number. Please read the below overview. Exterior: The paint is in ok shape with some problems the front bumper has been painted but is paint is dull but it still looks good unless you are on top of it. The rear quarter and the rear bumper has nicks and dings and could use paint otherwise the paint is in good shape for a 25 + year old car. Interior: When I purchased the car it had seats that were in poor shape and carpet that had seen too much sun so I had to replace them. I found seats that were recovered re padded and had rebuilt motors. The carpet was taken from the same donor car and while it is not new it is in better shape then the old carpet. The interior is taken care of and I will supply an extra set of door panels as well I did not do them because the door panels are still in good shape but I wanted a set anyway. Driveline: The motor starts every time with no issue with only 82000 miles. The car when I got it had a old set of headers that had to go along with holes in the front and year y pipes with I have replaced the mufflers were done by last owner. The auto trans shifts like new with no problems even in the cold. BUT the car will need a good tune up and THE CAR HAS A LIFTER TIC in the rear passenger side cylinder. Otherwise Id daily drive if I could. Electronics: As most of you know the dash boards in these cars almost never work until they are rebuilt which this one has been and works like a charm has not let me down yet. The radio works most of the time but does go in and out( id have it redone). The digi climate control works well and the AC and heat work well. Lights go up and down with no problems and the turn signals work ( lever needs to be tightened). Problems: While this car is in good shape it still needs some paint work. Id suggest plugs and wires and tighten up the header bolts and have the lifter tic looked into I was told by my local mechanic that it could be as simple as a lose bolt or a set of lifters. These are the Items I know need attention but the car is so close to being done it won't take much to bring it there. So why is he selling the car that he spent 9000 on and spent 2 years looking for, well I just don't use it enough and I don't have the time to finish it. I hope it will find a new home with someone who can enjoy it and drive it like it should be driven. Terms of this sale: -This car is sold AS-IS were is and no warranty will be given this car is 25+ years old and shows it and will need work so please do not expect a perfect car look elsewhere. -A $200 NON-Refundable deposit is due 24 hours after auctions end and the balance must be paid in CASH only. -Please remember if you bid you buy the car please do not bid if you do not have the funds in hand to buy the car. |

Weekly Recap: Tesla loses money, still dominates the news
Sat, Aug 8 2015Some people get an inordinate amount of attention. In politics, it's Donald Trump. In football, it's Jim Harbaugh. And in the auto world, it's Elon Musk and his always-fascinating electric car company, Tesla Motors. General Motors is spending $877 million to upgrade a factory. So what! US auto sales are up. Who cares? Tesla has a metal snake that will recharge your car! So was the week in Tesla – er, the industry. Snarkiness aside, Tesla did dominate the news cycle, led by the announcement the company lost $184 million in the second quarter. Tesla also said it expects to deliver between 50,000 and 55,000 vehicles this year, and is preparing for a full launch of the Model X crossover in September. Musk also made news during the earnings call by simply not answering a question about ride sharing, leading to speculation Tesla could be considering its own operation. While the financials were the arguably the most important company news, reports of a Model S cyber hacking were more compelling fodder for Tesla followers. Researchers were able to attack the sedan and bring it to a stop, though they required access to the car first. Tesla says it already has deployed a remedy for the situation. On a lighter note, Tesla published a video of its metal charger prototype that autonomously uncoils like a snake to power up the company's vehicles, provoking plenty of humorous comments and comparisons. Watch it and decide for yourself. While some of this might seem trivial, much of Tesla's recent attention has been warranted. It's the first startup US automaker in decades to launch from nothing and actually gain traction in the market. Sure, Musk is a lightning rod and Tesla always seems to be in the spotlight. But amid all of the publicity, it easy to lose sight of the new reality: Tesla is a force. OTHER NEWS & NOTES 2016 Chevy Volt lights up 106 MPGe The Chevy Volt's vitals are looking healthier for 2016. The second-generation plug-in hybrid racks up a gaudy 106 miles per gallon equivalent, which is an increase of eight MPGe from the 2015 model. The new Volt can travel 53 miles on electricity, a significant jump from the 2015 Volt's 38-mile range. The new car also has a 420-mile total range when factoring in the capability of the gasoline engine, which is 40 miles greater than the current car offers.
What car should James Robertson buy to drive his famous 21-mile commute?
Thu, Feb 5 2015The Internet has been abuzz this week with the story of Detroit resident James Robertson, the 56-year-old factory worker who has walked some 21 miles to work for the last 10 years. The Detroit Free Press brought Robertson's story to the fore, helping an online fundraising campaign to generate more than $275,000 (as of this writing). The original goal was just $5,000, or about enough to replace the used Honda that died on Robertson back in 2005, and left him walking. So, newly flush with funds, what's the perfect car for Robertson to buy? Let's look at the specifics of his situation, and try to pick out the best options. Here's what we know: Robertson's commute is (famously) 21 miles; he lives in downtown Detroit (for now) and seems pretty humble, so something very flashy is probably out; former Honda aside, his ties to the city (and statements about being a Ford fan) seem to indicate a Detroit Three company product is best; he's a single guy with a girlfriend; he's got to deal with Michigan weather, and the sometimes fickle snow removal processes in The D. Here are some choices: Ford F-150 Robertson is on record as being a Taurus fan, and after a decade of walking I've no doubt that the big sedan would offer a cozy respite. Still, as a car guy and a student of the industry, I'd have a hard time recommending a sedan so clearly in need of replacement. Especially when The Blue Oval has such great stuff within the rest of its roster. The 2015 F-150 seems almost perfect for Robertson. Opting for either of the new EcoBoost V6 engines should help keep fuel bills in reasonable check, while healthy ride height and four-wheel drive will get him to work on time even during the snowiest of snow days. Better still, with a fat options sheet and car-like ride quality, Robertson can have just about every amenity he might want, in a package that won't disrespect his blue-collar roots. Chevrolet Colorado You guys saw this one coming, right? The smaller footprint of the midsize Chevy pickup, relative to some of the other options here, should be an advantage for urban parking and driving. And again, 4x4 is an option for the nasty weather, the running costs should stay pretty low and there aren't many tech/luxury features that can't be had in-cabin. I'd go ahead and splash out on the Crew Cab bodystyle, too, just in case Robertson feels like starting a carpool.
Is Buick's surprise Detroit concept a Camaro-sized coupe?
Sun, Jan 10 2016Tomorrow night marks the unofficial start of the 2016 Detroit Auto Show. Keep your eyes peeled for a number of reveals, including a surprise debut from Buick. Yes, Buick. And we think it's going to be something really hot. According to a report from Bloomberg, the Tri-Shield's secret car could be a Camaro-sized sport coupe concept. As Bloomberg explains, it'd certainly gel with the impression the company is trying to put out – that it's no longer a brand for those with one foot in the grave. Introducing a sports coupe, even as a concept, could certainly reinforce that message. And if it happens to make production – which is not a certainty, Bloomberg's secret source says – it could certainly help Buick drive its average buyer age down from 59. Bloomberg doesn't offer any speculation on Buick's new coupe, but we have no problem making educated guesses. Our most reliable conjecture is this: it will ride on General Motors' Alpha platform, which underpins both the Camaro and the Cadillac ATS. And with a certain twin-turbocharged V6 in the GM stable, we've got an idea of what kind of engine could be shown. That speculation will have to suffice for now. But don't worry, we'll have official details, live images, and video tomorrow when Buick unveils its new concept in Detroit's Eastern Market.
