US $3,000.00

Lenoir City, Tennessee, United States

Lenoir City, Tennessee, United States

This a solid Monte Carlo SS. The car has 150,000 miles. The original color is silver. Straight body with only a coupled minor flaws. ( right rocker needs repair and a very small hole as seen in picts. New rocker included with car. ) Maroon interior in good condition for the age of the vehicle. Of course the dash is cracked.  The center console door hinge is broken. No stereo in the car at this time. I purchased the car a few weeks back. The car had a bad engine in it and I replaced it with a 35000 mile 305 High Output and 200R4 trans from a 1988 Monte Carlo SS. Solid exhaust system, floor boards and frame. The car runs and drives surprisingly well with practically new tires. The car has all the A/C parts and should work with a new dryer, filter, and resealing all connections. The a/c controls don't seem to move the air flow from defrost to floor. I'm going to try to fix that problem before the sale/auction ends. The power windows work but are a little slow. I have ordered new window and door seals from soft seal and will install them when they arrive. I just replaced the driver door hinge bushings and pins and it closes properly. The hood does have a small dent at the front near the header panel that can be repaired. The front bumper does have a small place that looks as if it someone started to repair it.  Please remember I have not had the vehicle long and I have tried to describe it as best as I can. I would like to see the car go to someone who wants to finish the car with paint, stripes, and other things to make her nice again. Just call or email me with any questions before bidding. The car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. A 500.00 Deposit through Pay Pal is required with in 24 hours of auction end.

Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile

Mon, 18 Nov 2013

The 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.

Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.

2014 Chevrolet C7 Corvette wastes no time zooming into Jay Leno's Garage

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

Where else would you expect the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray to show up first? Although this time it isn't exactly in Jay Leno's Garage, Leno instead playing an away game at Brown's Classic Auto in Scottsdale, Arizona. Nor does Leno drive the car, instead taking an 11-minute walkaround of the new American sports car with General Motors design head Ed Welburn, the same man who recently brought by a string of classic Corvettes to the talk show host's California compound.
It is, admittedly, a love-fest for the American sports car now featuring 450 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque, but one that also features admissions about previous Corvette seats like "they were kinda rough," and the explanation that labeling the coupe "Stingray" means not having to call it "the base Corvette." On top of that, Welburn also explains the proper application of the term "dashboard." You can watch it all in the video below.
