Here is an outstanding 1971 Corvette Coupe in spectacular Ontario Orange - paint code 987; complimented with Deluxe Saddle Tan leather - trim code 420. The car's official production date documented by GM was 06/10/71 and subsequently delivered to Spedding Chevrolet in Denver, Colorado. What makes this car special is it's low actual mileage (14,115); all of the gauges are original and have not been restored with exception of the clock. All interior vinyl is original; new carpeting, seating and console trim was replaced to give the car an as new appearance.
It was delivered with the following options: J50 Power Brakes, LS5 - 454 c.i. 365 hp engine, M21 close ratio 4 speed transmission, N37 Tilt - Telescopic Steering Column, N40 Power Steering, U79 AM-FM Stereo, ZQ1 Optional Rear Axle Ratio (3.08). I have not been able to determine if it was delivered with P02 hubcaps or rallye trim rings; both come with the car.
Number Matching absolutely! The engine is original to the car from it's birth date; TO 521 CPH with the serial number stamped in the pad as well. Transmission is also original to the car; P1E20B with the serial number also stamped into the casing. The rear axle is also original to the car and dated E-81. All manifolds are date correct to the car, one was replaced. Carburetor, Starter, Water Pump, Alternator and Pulleys are all date correct and original. The original frame stencil was visible and faithfully reapplied and reflects a fabrication date of 5-3-71.
The car has undergone a thorough nut and bolt frame off restoration. The pictures do not do the car justice; I am sure you will have questions regarding this absolutely beautiful automobile. Please call me at 970-396-1587 to discuss any details or clarifications.
Thank you, happy bidding!

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.

2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers
Fri, 11 Apr 2014
Supercharged, 6.2-liter V8? Check. Seven-speed manual? Check. Obsession with weight? Check.
What did you expect when Chevrolet said it was bringing a new Corvette variant to the 2014 New York Auto Show? Maybe a sticker and trim package, like the C6 Corvette Grand Sport or a tie-in deal like the Black Widow car from Chicago? On the opposite end, maybe there was an even more hardcore Z06 waiting in the wings. Who knew?
