1988 Corvette convertible 5 speed, white body with a black cloth top, red interior, 88,995 original miles. Originally owned by my father who purchased it brand new in 1988 and was passed on to me after he passed in 2007. It was only used on wknds and during the nicer weather here in NY. Please view all the pictures, pic 17). is 1991, the vette originally came with a vynil white top which through the yrs fell apart. In 2004 my dad purchased a black cloth top which is alot more durable. Pic 18 and 19 is the monies I've invested into the car, brand new muffler system in 2010 and a brand new clutch in August of 2012 plus other items totalling around $5000. I lived in CA for 2 yrs and got to enjoy driving this car down the PCH through Malibu ( I know my father was smiling from above). Please view Milage, dates, price and what was done. This was my 3rd car so I hardly drove it, it was used when I wanted speed under my ass or pick up a lady for the first time (like my dad said it was an extension of his johnson). This car was never in an accident, body is in perfect shape, tires and rims are good, very nice cloth top, new muffler and clutch plus other items fixed and drives awesome when it did work! When I moved back to NY 6/12 I hardly used it, as you can see I only put 400 miles on the car since getting a new clutch. I covered the car and stuck it in the back of my driveway, who needs insurance right..... Hurricane Sandy came into town, I wasnt here for Irene AND I live 10 blocks from the ocean so I figured I was good. Thankfully I took my land rover to the city the night before as I knew we would lose electric for a few days. Anyhoot, Im not sure how high the water came up where I live but I do know the water went up to the seats in the car (the seats show water marks). I did try and jump it but got nothing, I even left the charger on it for 12 hrs and still nothing. This car definatly has water damage, If I wasnt moving to Chicago in 3 wks I would figure out whats wrong with it and fix it. I drove this car to my prom 23 yrs ago and it was my dads car, I have many fond memories of this car but I must move on and I have no place to put it while I live in the city. Being sold as is and pick up only. Please ask any questions and thanks for looking. Please view my other auctions on ebay.

I know nothing about cars.... thats why we have mechanics!!

I HAVE THIS CAR IN A 4' X 2' MIRROR AND LUCITE FRAMED PICTURED ON EBAY FOR SALE Purchased by my mom for $400 in 1988 as a gift for my dad  Its under my other account 24kt12 or lookup Corvette mirror

Chevy Bolt 200-mile EV going into production near Detroit

Thu, Feb 12 2015

Where there's smoke, there's fire, apparently. The rumors of the Chevy Bolt going into production have been proven correct, with an announcement this morning at the Chicago Auto Show that the 200-mile, all-electric Bolt will be built at the Orion Assembly facility near Detroit. GM didn't say exactly when the Bolt will be built, but GM North America president Alan Batey said in a statement that, "We are moving quickly because of its potential to completely shake up the status quo for electric vehicles." He's not kidding. GM is talking about a $30,000 price tag for an EV that can do twice as many electric miles as any non-Tesla mass-production EV today. Previous hints have the Bolt starting production next year for a market debut in 2017, and with all of the accuracy we've seen from these secret releases up to now, we're going to say this is probably accurate until we hear otherwise. We still have questions about the price tag, but for now we'll try to track down more information here in Chicago. Chevrolet Commits to Bolt EV Production Game-changing, long-range EV to be built at Orion Assembly facility in Michigan CHICAGO – Chevrolet this morning confirmed production of its next-generation pure electric vehicle, based on the Bolt EV concept. It will be built at General Motors' Orion Assembly facility near Detroit. GM North America President Alan Batey made the announcement ahead of the Chicago Auto Show. The Bolt EV concept was introduced last month at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. "The message from consumers about the Bolt EV concept was clear and unequivocal: Build it," said Batey. "We are moving quickly because of its potential to completely shake up the status quo for electric vehicles." Leveraging the industry-leading battery technology found in the Chevrolet Volt and Spark EV, the Bolt EV concept was developed as a game-changing, long-range pure electric for all 50 states, designed to offer more than a GM-estimated 200 miles of range at a target price of around $30,000. The progressively styled concept vehicle features selectable driving modes for preferred driving styles, such as daily commuting, and it was designed to support DC fast charging. "We're proud that Chevrolet has decided to produce the Bolt EV here in Michigan at the Orion Assembly facility," Gov. Rick Snyder said. "Michigan unquestionably remains the global automotive leader.

GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices

Mon, 21 Oct 2013

The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.

Very first Chevy Camaro found and restored

Thu, Feb 26 2015

Restoring an important classic car can lead people down rabbit hole upon rabbit hole of discovered history in a process that's essentially automotive genealogy. Take the recent rejuvenation of the very first Chevrolet Camaro as an example. The owners started with a strong hunch that the vehicle might be something special and spent years researching to figure it all out before the mechanical work even began. Fisher Body kicked off work on the first Camaro on May 17, 1966, and it was delivered to General Motors just a few days later for final assembly. While the model has earned a place as an American performance icon since then, the original was built more to develop the production process and boasted just a 230-cubic-inch (3.8-liter) inline six and 3-speed transmission. After spending its first few months appearing in promotions, a Chevy dealer in Oklahoma got the gold car in December of '66. It was touted on the sales floor there for years, and the first private owner didn't come until 1969. This short documentary goes into astonishingly comprehensive detail about every bit of the first Camaro's history. If you just want to hear the story of the latest owners and their work to get the vehicle restored since 2010, skip about 11 minutes into the video. Or, of course, you could just enjoy the whole thing. News Source: PilotCarRegistry via YouTube, Camaro NewsTip: Chris P.
