This car was completed approximately five years ago, but has only been driven about 100 miles since. The car came out of Texas and was not in that bad of shape to start with, I have included some pictures of the car in its original condition. I have also included a couple pics of the car being restored. I have 40 or so photos of that process, that will be included with the sale of the car.
BODY : The body was soda stripped, see pics. As you can tell this was a very solid car. The stripping, body work, and paint work was done professionally. Quarter Panels and Fenders are new. The Wheel Houses are original. It was painted GM Color Code 75 ( Fire Red ). Base Coat / Clear Coat. This paint looks fantastic! The only flaw is a chip along the edge of the hood, where it meets the fender. The hood must have rubbed. I am in the process of getting some touch up and will include it with the car. The bumpers are the originals and have been re-chromed ( look great ). The handles and other chrome is average. Rocker moldings are not on the car. The underside and frame was also painted, see pics.
INTERIOR : All new, Looks Perfect! I have nothing negative to report on this interior. Please notice there are aftermarket gauges.
ENGINE : 396 with a Mild Cam. It was rebuilt at the time of the resto. It has never been on a Dyno, so I do not have any horsepower numbers to report. Runs Out strong and FAST!! Serpentine Belt System. The A/C has never been charged since the resto.
WHEELS : SS Wheels with New BFG Tires.
This is your chance to own a VERY NICE EXAMPLE OF AMERICAN MUSCLE!! There is over 40 Grand invested in this car. You could never come close to building one yourself, for the Buy it Now Price. There a couple of minor things left to do : The cowl induction hood was never hooked up, all the parts are here. Also, the Odometer and Speedometer are not working because the cable was never installed ( I do have the parts )
TERMS : This is a private party transaction. Clear title in hand. $1,000.00 Deposit Thru Paypal Only, within 24 hours of auction close. Cash is accepted or a bank check for the balance. Balance must be received within 3 days of auction close. All Checks need time to clear, before vehicle will be released. These are the ONLY terms that will be accepted. Thank You.
TRADES : Not interested in any high dollar amount trades, but if you are a few grand short, I would consider something that is worth $5,000.00 or less.
I believe I have told you everything I know about this car, but if you have questions, please call me at 708.927.9990 ( Tim )
THANKS!

Pics Aplenty: Meet the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra [w/poll]
Thu, 13 Dec 2012Today was a pretty big day for General Motors, debuting the all-new Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra light-duty pickup trucks ahead of their official showcase at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show. And now that the dust has settled at GM's big reveal event, we've had a chance to snap dozens of photos of the new pickup pair from every angle.
We already told you the important bits earlier today (click here in case you missed it), but let's recap. Under the hood are three new engines - a 4.3-liter V6, 5.3-liter V8 and 6.2-liter V8 (you know, a version of the small-block that'll also be found under the hood of the C7 Corvette), all mated to six-speed automatic transmissions. The 2014 model year marks the return of the Z71 off-road package with Rancho shocks, front tow hooks and beefier underbody protection. Inside, there's a host of new technology and a greater focus on better quality and refinement.
Some of the nitty-gritty specifics (like engine output numbers and fuel economy) have yet to be revealed, and since we haven't driven the finished products yet, it's hard to say how these trucks will fare against rivals like the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150. For now, we can only judge these two books by their covers, and while we do like the designs of the new trucks, we Autoblog staffers are torn on exactly which one looks best.
Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction
Sun, 17 Feb 2013It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
Chevy shows much-improved 2014 Corvette interior in new video
Mon, 11 Feb 2013If you want a closer look at what went into designing and building the interior for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, we've got just the thing. General Motors has released a new video detailing the cabin's evolution from conception to execution, complete with commentary from Ryan Vaughn, performance car interior design manager with Chevrolet. The quick clip details how manufacturing, engineering and design within General Motors worked together from the first sketches to ensure no compromises had to be made later down the line. How novel.
With plenty of hides traced with contrast stitching and available real carbon fiber trim, the cabin looks to be a few hundred miles ahead of the C6. Given how readily critics derided the previous generation for its cabin, the C7 should make writers work a little harder to find something to complain about. Check out the video below for yourself.
