   Beautiful 2 owner Minnesota truck that has never seen winter or bad weather. I bought it from the original owner in 1998 with 50000 miles on it. It now shows 85527 miles and they are correct. It had been in a minor fender bender when it was new and the right front fender and door had been repaired in 1987 when it was less than a year old. It has had no paint work or repair since. It had been lowered using Bell Tech parts when I purchased it.
   I added the dual exhaust, tonneau cover, factory bumper guards and hood ornament. I also added the SS454 wheels which have new B.F. Goodrich radial Ta's on them. The trim on the tailgate is from a Suburban. The tailgate handle is still in the original position, I just never opened the tailgate. One look in the box and it's factory paint tells you that it hasn't been used much. I have the factory tailgate trim as well. The original Uniroyal Tiger Paw spare has never been used. 
   The truck has the fuel injected 305 with the automatic transmission and factory 2:73 gears. It runs and drives excellent and has had no work other than oil changes and tune ups.  It is loaded with options: ps, pb, pw, pl, cold ac, dual tanks that work perfect, tilt, factory stereo that works perfect, even the clock keeps perfect time. I also changed steering wheels. 
   The factory red paint is very nice. It has a few stone chips on the hood and behind the wheels but it's a safe bet the truck has never seen a gravel road. It has one small dent on the right front fender. A good paintless dent guy could probably handle although it's in a bad spot being on the factory horizontal body line. The original tan interior is in excellent condition. The dash pad has no cracks, the door panels are perfect and the seat and carpet are in excellent condition. The headliner has started to drop a bit above the drivers side visor but can't be seen unless you lower the visor. I have the original window sticker as well. 
   I am biased because I have owned and enjoyed the truck for 16 years but I would say it's an honest 7 out of 10. It's only for sale to ease the hurt of the price tag on the 2014 Chevy I have ordered.

Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506

Thu, 02 May 2013

With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.

Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting?

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]

Sun, 26 Jan 2014

If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
