Up for auction is a 1969 Chevrolet Corvette T-Top Coupe in very nice condition. It is equipped with a 427 cubic inch engine with a single 4-barrell carb. The car has an automatic transmission but did come new with a factory 4-speed rock crusher trans. The clutch pedal assembly is still in the car pulled up out of the way should someone want to bring it back to the stick trans. This exchange happened as I understand it about 22 years ago so that the wife could drive it. The car was painted way back then as well and has been well cared for being kept in nice condition. While the car shows well and has been sheltered, it is obviously not top show quality as there are some chips and small scratches and blemishes in the paint as you would expect. For a mighty big block car, it has taken the years very well and gets a lot of attention no matter where you go.

 

The car has a new interior carpet set and door panels but does still have the original seats. The driver's seat has a split on the seam that can be seen in a picture. All the tires and brakes are new as well as many mechanical parts that can be seen in the pictures on close examination. The car has a lot of power as you would expect, the transmission shift will jerk your head if not carefull, and the car goes straight with no pulling or front end shimmy or vibrations. The T-Tops fit as designed and still has the original storage bags pictured. The radio plays and the power antenna works well.

 

I have included a picture of the car running to show the gauges. The readings are perfect and to add a surprise, the clock STILL WORKS and keeps proper time. How about that!!!

 

The rally wheels are nice with very nice centers and beauty rings. That is a surprise as they are usually curbed.

 

Under the hood is non detailed but shows very nicely. There are new parts shown, aluminum big block valve covers and new air cleaner and vacuum control for wipers. Also, You will see in one of the pictures a new booster for the headlights to make them go up and down and they do. What more can I say. You can fly in and drive it home as I don' see any reason for doubting it. Use it like it is, go to shows, perform in rallys, or put a set of seat covers on it and some touch up to make it show. 

 

If you are not local and want to send someone to check it out, I will assist their efforts where necessary. If shipping is involved, I will provide whatever assistance to help.

 

I have a lot of up close detailed pictures of the car, chrome, lights, etc I can send to you upon request. Send your email address and I will forward them to you for more detail. There are about twenty.

 

Good luck bidding and if you have less than 5 feedbacks, contact me to discuss.

Survey says $25k barrier is a problem for EVs

Sun, 01 Dec 2013



The majority of consumers are more or less priced out of the market.
Electric cars are gaining popularity with the general public, but are they still too expensive? According to a survey 1,084 consumers by Navigant Research, a consulting firm located in Boulder, CO, 71 percent want their next car to cost under $25,000, while 41 percent won't go a cent above $20K. Looks like people are even thriftier than we'd originally thought.

Steve McQueen's last movie car, now Pawn Stars-owned, up for auction [w/video]

Sun, 03 Feb 2013

The last car Steve McQueen ever drove in a movie is officially up for auction. The 1951 Chevrolet Styline DeLuxe Convertible you see above is now owned by none other than Rick Harrison of Pawn Stars fame, but once ferried McQueen around the set of his last film, 1980's The Hunter. That flick saw the Bullit star play a bumbling bounty hunter and didn't exactly set the box office on fire. McQueen bought the car after production wrapped, and four years later it sold at his estate sale at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas.
Flash forward to 2003, and the convertible received a full restoration back to near-stock specifications. Hagerty Insurance estimates the car to be worth around $45,000 without the significant providence. Given its ties to one of film's most popular gearheads, the old Chevrolet could fetch up to 10 times that when it goes under the gavel in Ft Luaderdale, Florida on March 22. You can head over to the Auctions America site for more information. You can also check out the trailer for The Hunter below.
