You are bidding on a 1986 C4 Corvette. The car will run and drive, but it overheats. It overheated, and picked up a "rough" run. I got into an engine upgrade for the car, and started taking it apart. At this time I noticed the area between the radiator and condenser was about 3/4 full of leaves. Also the inertia ring was off the balancer. Thought maybe that was the overheating and rough run. Put new balancer on and new thermostat, and reassembled. Car still overheats. head gasket? cracked head? I don't know. It will run for 20 min to half hour then gets hot. Battery is dead, but it can be started and driven for a test drive or driven onto a trailer just fine.
I want to make it clear that I am unsure of the "actual" miles on the car. I bought it with 141k. Used it some. But I doubt its over 150k. (like I said battery is dead cant read odo.)
Car drives fine, for an 86. I love to drive it. Car is complete. Dash light up most of the time, if not a "smack" gets it lit.prob a weak ground. All gauges worked last time I drove it. Needs a paint job, as clear is pealing, and a car cover played havoc on the paint. The rear carpet is all sun dried, and need replaced. Balance of interior is fine for an 86. It has a Delco Bose radio, and I feel it sounds excellent. Heat A/C worked fine, no freon in it now tho, never recharged after I put it back together. Headlights open and close just fine. Cruise doesn't work.
Tires are good, just guessing at 60% thread er better....but i don't know the new tread depth on Dunlap's.Windows are old GM typical slow. One door entry lock is drilled out, I have new one's which I never installed, to go with sale. I have the original window sticker, which has been plastic covered. Typical of GM no headliner. Has removable fiberglass roof section.
I purchased the car on E bay a couple of years ago, in Florida, and drove the car home to Texas. The car is in Freeport, TX. Which is aprox. 65 miles south of Houston.
I purchased a 95 Corvette LT-1 engine and transmission complete. All wiring, engine and dash and engine ECM, radiator w/fans and complete shroud, radiator fill tank, condenser, a/c hoses, heater core and box, Clutch, flywheel,bell housing, slave w/pedals, and drive shaft. The trans is a ZF-6spd blue tag. There is probably more I'm not adding here, but I believe I have more than an engine changeover would need. If bid winner is interested in the complete "package" I'd want 1k additional, I paid more.
I have no time, and really no place to change the engine anymore.
Payment, $500.00 within 48 hours after close of auction. Balance due Within 7 days. Email me thru E bay me if your the winner and phone numbers exchanged, and P/U arrangement's can be made.
THIS CAR MUST BE TOWED / TRAILERED. I HAVE NO WAY OF DELIVERING THE CAR. I WILL HELP AS NECESSARY IN LOADING THE CAR.

Chevy rolls out Silverado HD High Country
Wed, 09 Apr 2014It's been a good week for heavy-duty truck buyers. First, Ram revealed the Black Package for its HD trucks, then it rolled out its new Power Wagon, and now Chevy's getting in on the action with its Silverado High Country HD. Okay, so it may not pack quite the attitude of Ram's latest 2500-series offerings, but the High Country HD will come as a welcome addition to the Chevy Trucks range to those looking to pull their horse, boat or other trailer without skimping on creature comforts.
Rolled out a little under a year ago, the High Country trim is Chevy's answer to the likes of the GMC Denali, Ford King Ranch and Ram Longhorn. It has until now only been offered on the light duty, 1500-series Silverado, but now extends to the 2500 and 3500-series HD models, as well.
So what sets a High Country pickup apart from lesser Chevy trucks? You'll be able to pick it out based on its chrome horizontal grille, body-color bumpers, 6-inch tubular side steps, 20-inch chrome wheels (18-inch on the 3500 and 17-inch on the dualie) and, of course, plenty of special badging. But it's inside where the High Country makes its mark, with a cabin decked out in saddle brown perforated leather, seats that are both heated and cooled, eight-inch touchscreen with full MyLink suite, Bose audio and park assist functions front and rear to keep those color-keyed bumpers looking fresh. (Though Chevy hasn't yet showed us the interior of the HD model, it'll presumably look mostly the same as the cab in the 1500 High Country in the gallery below.)
Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]
Mon, 27 May 2013If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.
