Up for sale is a red 1963 Corvette convertible. I'm selling this because I'm going to college and can no longer afford it. The frame and birdcage is absolutely rust-free. Try finding a 1963-1982 Corvette without rust. Good luck, they are getting harder and harder to find. This car spent much of it's life in Texas. I still have the Texas plates from 1986 and the insurance card. The NOM Chevy small block engine runs great but the car won't shift smoothly. When you try to change gears, it's very difficult to get to the gear that you want. This happened after my brother pulled the transmission to replace the clutch - it shifted fine before. I was told that it might be the transmission linkage but I am not a mechanic, so I can't say for sure. The previous owner put the new top and carpet in the car. Car also has completely brand new exhaust from the manifolds back. My brother started to detail the passenger's side fender, which can be seen in the pictures. He did not do the detail work recently (about 2 months ago), the paint does look that good. It is not just the fillers in the polish. The car could use some minor body work to be a nice looking driver. The convertible top frame needs minor adjustment because it won't close down all the way (1/4"). As the car is 50 years old it does need finishing touches in most aspects, but the car is structurally solid and will make a great driver with minimal work. All this car needs to be 100% complete is a couple minor interior pieces. If you have any question please feel free to message me on eBay or call me at 1-262-309-7453. This car can't be driven home, it will have to be trailered back. I am willing to work with the buyer and can coordinate shipping if desired. This is a no reserve auction. Whatever it sells for is the final price.

GM takes heat for aborted Silverado riff on 'Boston Strong' at World Series
Thu, 31 Oct 2013During game five of the World Series, Chevrolet was set to do a spot of marketing for the 2014 Silverado - fans at Busch Stadium in St. Louis would hold up placards that spelled out the words "Silverado Strong," a theme that Chevy has been promoting since the Silverado's launch with the song "Strong," by Will Hoge. The St. Louis promo was ultimately called off, though, over concerns that it'd be insensitive to the visiting Boston Red Sox. (You can see the image of what the stunt would have looked like above, courtesy of one timely Reddit user.)
Now, the Busch Stadium stunt might not have been a big deal, had the St. Louis Cardinals not been playing the Boston Red Sox. Following the tragic events in Boston during the marathon back in April, the phrase "Boston Strong" gained traction among the city's citizens, especially at sporting events. So, you can imagine that Chevy's appropriation of the phrase might not sit well with some fans.
The stunt was ultimately shelved after images of the signs went viral before the game, leading to a bit of a public backlash. Chevy spokesperson Michael Albano said of the promo that it was meant to show the brand's "commitment to baseball and its fans." But after the images went viral, the company "realized there was the possibility that we may offend some of the very fans we were trying to honor," Albano told Automotive News via email.
Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts
Wed, 27 Feb 2013There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.
2015 Chevrolet Cruze spied on its home turf
Tue, 23 Apr 2013The next Chevrolet Cruze isn't set to go into production for about another year, and we're just now seeing prototypes of the new compact running around here in the States. Not much more has been revealed since we saw the car blasting through the snow in Europe, but we can still clearly see new design elements like the larger grille, slimmer headlamps and redesigned taillamps.
Our spy photographers worked up a composite image of this Cruze prototype alongside the current model, and here, we can clearly see some big visual changes are in store for the new model. The 2015 Cruze's hood slopes downward more dramatically, the windshield is more heavily raked, and the roofline looks more fluid overall. The next-generation Cruze will ride on the new global Delta platform that will also underpin other General Motors vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt and Equinox.
As for what's under the hood, we expect the normal range of gasoline four-cylinder engines (both naturally aspirated and turbocharged), and the compact's new turbodiesel four should carry over, as well. Have a look at the full brace of spy photos in the gallery above.
