You are viewing my beautiful 1970 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, that was restored just a few years back. This has been a Southern car it's entire life from what I've been told by the previous owners. It is numbers matching with it's original small block 350 engine (badged like a LT-1 with an LT-1 hood...much better looking than the standard hood!) mated to it's 4 speed manual transmission. Factory ignition shielding is in place. Mileage shows as 21,474 but I'm sure has rolled over once. The car is a beautiful Cortez Silver with Black interior. It looks so much better in person than it does in these photos! Great body lines and gaps! The entire interior is quite nice with very little to no wear. Carpets are nice both in the front and in the rear tray area. Straps for the t-tops are present and I have the vinyl covers as well. I also have the original factory radio in a box that will also come with the car. Within the past few weeks I have put brand new tires on the front, a new caliper in the rear, new master cylinder for the brakes, had the carb rebuilt, a new fuel pump & sending unit, and new plugs. Perfect ride height, low and aggressive (not all jacked up in the back like when someone puts on new leaf springs that didn't know what they were doing!). The car was repainted a few years ago when it was restored and it still looks fresh and shiny, with very minor imperfections that are expected from a "driver". There is a small "C" shaped ding in the paint on the top of the rear deck where a small can fell on it (local paint guys said they can match and blend for less than $200, I just didn't get around to it because it never bothered me that much). All body, door, and window seals were replaced when restoration was done and are still very nice. All glass is nice, with removable rear glass window. Obviously this is a t-top car, and the tops are in great condition inside and out. Appears to have never been in any kind of accident. All chrome is nice. Rally wheels look great. The car runs great and drives down the road nice and straight, and stops on a dime with no weird pulling. Shifts nice with no crunching of synchros. This is a reliable car that will give you years of enjoyment and I would not hesitate to drive any distance. Engine runs cool even on very hot Myrtle Beach days! A/C needs a recharge, but everything is there. Has roll up windows, tilt & tele steering wheel, power brakes but no power steering. Fiber optics work. Dash "seat belt" warning light works and turns off with push of the dash button. "Brake" light works when parking brake is set. Headlights operate as they should both up and down, and low & high beams work as well as turn signals. Wiper door actuates (opens and closes) when starting the car in it's test mode, but wipers will not turn on...never really looked into this because car is not driven in the rain...could be as simple as a fuse. Underside of the car is very clean with no rust or scaling to speak of. Beautiful frame and birdcage. Newer exhaust. Basically this car has only been driven a few thousand miles since it was restored, and has ALWAYS been garage kept. This is a beautiful example that will make any owner proud. I am a private collector slowly trying to thin down my collection of classic muscle cars and exotics. Had 15, now down to 11, trying (forced by wife LOL) to get down to 6. I will miss this sweet ride. Ask any and all questions PRIOR to bidding. Also, make sure to have your finances in line BEFORE bidding. I am not a bank, I will not wait for you to get a loan, ask your preacher, get your wife's permission, etc... I expect the winning bidder to contact me immediately after winning with their contact info (full name & phone numbers so we can arrange payment and pick up/shipping intentions). I recently sold one of my Lotus Turbo Esprit's on here and the first winner never contacted me so I had to re-list it. That wastes time and money people, so I ask you kindly to NOT waste my time. Full payment is expected AND required within 5 business days from auction close. NO EXCEPTIONS. Sorry, not interested in any trades either. Only selling to thin my collection down to a more manageable number. My Vette is for sale locally as well so feel free to make an offer. Listing "may" end early due to that reason. Don't let this gorgeous Vette slip away from you. These are ONLY going UP in value and this is a NICE one! This is a No Reserve Auction...last bid wins! Bid high & bid often! Thanks for looking and happy bidding!

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible gives us a couple of looks
Sat, 02 Mar 2013Put away your pixel paintbrushes, kids. Pack up your Photoshop. This is the real-deal 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible in its first official images. The droptop Chevrolet will roll into the bright lights of the Palexpo exhibition at next week's Geneva Motor Show, a four-wheeled statement of intent that General Motors is serious about taking its Corvette franchise global.
Chevy isn't providing anything in the way of further details with these two shots, but we've learned at least a couple of things about the car shown here. First off, the example seen in these images is fitted with the optional Z51 Performance Package - something that isn't immediately evident because there's no sign of the coupe model's prominent ductwork on its rear haunches. In order to accommodate the power folding hard tonneau cover, the vents that feed the transmission and differential coolers have been relocated to the underside of the car. The dark paint color on this example also does a good job of muting the contrasting black front fender vents and hood opening - Z51-spec design details that have proven to be somewhat controversial.
One other thing to note: These two shots also display the Stingray wearing different alloy wheels than the split five-spoke design shown at the hardtop's Detroit Auto Show unveiling in January. The simpler, thin five-spoke wheels should do a good job of showing off the Z51's upgraded brakes, and they'll be optional on the coupe as well.
General Motors shaking up its marketing... again
Wed, 13 Mar 2013One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")
Expect greater differentiation in GM's next-generation SUVs
Thu, 03 Jan 2013General Motors says its next-generation Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade models will offer shoppers improved interior differentiation. Car and Driver recently caught up with Chris Hilts, GM's creative manager of interior design, who said that the cabins will all feature unique instrument panels, consoles, center stacks and switchgear moving forward. Apparently GM is now aware that consumers may be bothered by the fact that today's $85,000 Escalade has effectively the same cabin as a $45,000 Tahoe. Hilts says SUV buyers want more refinement than their pickup purchasing counterparts - and those same buyers also want their SUVs to have more exterior differentiation between the company's Silverado and Sierra pickup lines. Shocking.
That all sounds good to us, but we've heard this song and dance before. GM made big waves about how different the new-for-2013 Silverado and Sierra would look from each other, but judging by what we've seen so far, GM's stylists are painting in shades rather than with the full spectrum.
