87 Vette 51000 Miles on 2040-cars
Madison, Ohio, United States
|
This is a 1987 Corvette with 51000 miles. I got the car on a trade around a year ago. It needs a bunch of TLC. I had the clutch slave cylinder, master cylinder throwout bearing replaced. The car has remained in a "Corvette specialist" shop for nearly a year for which I received nothing more than grief and a bill! All the things about the car are from prior owner, but seems motor is stout. So here goes, it's an earlier 350 4bolt main block with .030 cleanup with Summit pistons I'm told it's around 11.0 to 1 compression. It has a Competition Extreme energy cam, 510 lift 276 duration with Rhodes lifters. Aluminum heads with mild port and polish done. HEI distributor. 26lb injectors (new) also have 36lb injectors that go with. I'm told if you get rid of the factory fuel injection and swap to carb, should run ok. with engine mods computer just loads up with fuel making it undriveable. The "expert" continued to put new proms in but gave up. It will start and move around the driveway, but that's it. The car has the 4 + 3 trans. It comes with a truck load of spare parts from electrical to body parts. Needs someone to finish it, I have lost interest. I could be interested in a trade but no bikes or Vettes. Has black leather interior in fair condition tops of door panels are missing as is radio. Will need paint. Any questions please ask, if your feedback is less than 5 contact me first or I will remove your bid. $200.00 PayPal deposit end of auction. Balance due before car moves.
On Sep-17-14 at 11:02:53 PDT, seller added the following information: I have been asked what parts I have. A bit of everything, all used.. springs, fairing interior electrical, boxes of stuff will fill a pick up.. all goes will not seperate.. |

First privately owned Corvette Stingray blitzes 1/4 mile in 12.23 at 114.88 mph
Tue, 01 Oct 2013Chevrolet's latest road rocket, the Corvette Stingray, is a very quick car. If one needs further proof of that, we recommend they take a look at this video from Hennessey of what is claimed to be the first privately owned C7 Corvette to make a pass down the quarter mile. Not just any quarter mile, mind, this black C7 blitzed its way down the tuner's primary testing dragstrip. The Chevrolet ran the quarter in just 12.23 seconds at 114.88 miles per hour. That is a very quick time for a stock car.
Equipped with the Z51 package and a six-speed automatic transmission, not only does the C7 run a solid time, but it does so with little to no drama. That won't last though, as Hennessey will likely return it to its owner with far more power - we just hope they show a drag run of the completed product. Take a look below to watch the C7's 12.23-second run on video.
Why Cadillac thinks it needs to succeed in Europe to sell cars elsewhere
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Ward's Auto has taken an interesting look at the renewed focus General Motors is showing towards Cadillac in Europe. Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe (pictured), says in order for the luxury brand to thrive in China, it first needs to succeed in the old country. The reason? Chinese buyers look to Europe for cues as to what's deemed worthy of the term "luxury." There are hurdles to the plan, however. In addition to the fact that the EU is flooded with high-end nameplates, GM doesn't necessarily have the distribution network in place to put buyers behind the wheel.
Combine that with persistent economic woes and Cadillac's checkered past marred by a lack of diesel engine options and a bankrupt distributor, and the road ahead for the brand looks like less of an uphill climb and more like a straight-up cliff face. But Docherty is optimistic and says she has a plan for the brand. We recommend heading over to Ward's for a closer look at the full read.
More Corvette Stingray Factoids: Vanishing panel gaps and 26-mpg LT1
Thu, 28 Feb 2013During January's Detroit Auto Show, we managed a longer than expected wandering tag-team interview with C7 Corvette chief engineering exec Tadge Juechter (pictured above), and LT1 engine boss Jordan Lee (pictured below). They are, quite honestly, two of the very nicest bigshot lads to ever walk the engineering corridors of an American manufacturer. Both are enthralled by what they're doing for a day job. So are we.
We've followed the pre-sale anticipation for the Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray like an Oreck vacuum yanking every speck of dirt from a well-trampled carpet. Everything is reportable and contains a grain of further knowledge about this dramatically important and cheered-for car, as it continues to be pressured into representing all that is superior about the American dream. The Corvette wears one heavy cloak.
So, most of what was talked about has been expertly reported already right here on Autoblog. But, looking through our notes again, both Jeuchter and Lee added facts to the buzzing mix.
