1964 Chevy Ii, 2 Door Sedan - Great Daily Driver.... Drive Her Home.... on 2040-cars

Year:1964 Mileage:45005
Location:

United States

United States

1964 Chevy II, 2 door sedan, 100 Series, 194 cu. in. 6 cylinder, automatic, power steering, power brakes - all matching numbers, with 45,005 original miles (documented)

A dependable daily driver that is in great shape for a 50 year old classic - She is a real head turner - Recent updates include all new brakes, wheel cylinders, master cylinder, rebuilt power brake booster, new upper and lower ball joints and tie rod ends, new water pump, new carburetor, all new engine gaskets and 4 new white wall radial tires.  Radiator was flushed, transmission strainer cleaned - all new fluids & no fluid leaks - recently tuned (points, condenser and plugs) Compression test revealed over 110 psi on each cylinder and within +/- tolerances. 

Based upon her condition I believe she has been garaged for most of her life, as she is right now - I have the original owners’ manual and warranty book that came with the car in 1964 - I am the 3rd owner.  She is straight and true and as best as I can tell she has never been in a major accident  - She has new window and door gaskets, floor pans and has had some minor rust repair done over the years - There is no visible rust or rust through anywhere on the car - She was re-painted at some point in her 50 years and is still the original color that matches the factory paint code.  She drives straight down the road, shifts perfectly, stops on a dime, has plenty of power with no hesitation and has no shimmies or shakes even at 75 mph - She’s not perfect by any means but she is the great car for someone who wants a fun, dependable classic – She would be great for the first time classic car buyer or someone who doesn’t work on cars because she needs nothing done mechanically to drive her….  She does have some minor body imperfections - the passenger door has a paint blend that doesn’t quite match perfectly where a small dent was repaired and she has the usual small chips here and there found on any 50 year old daily driver. She is not a show car and is not priced like one…But...

Everything works and unlike most sellers, I can honestly state that this car is strong enough and safe enough to drive her home from Southwest Florida to anywhere here in the states.  I will gladly help the new buyer coordinate shipping by carriers or by container if shipped outside the USA (at the buyers cost of course).  The last classic car I sold was a 68 Ford Falcon that was shipped to Queensland, Australia and the new owners loved the condition of my car…. 

I have over $14,000 invested but you can buy her now for only $12,500 - I will consider all “Reasonable Offers” throughout this auction but offensively low bids will be automatically refused - Please understand that I am in no rush to sell her - You just don’t find daily drivers like this in such good mechanical condition - I plan to hold out for the best offer or wait to sell her locally where she is also being advertised….

NOTE: She is being sold as-is and where-is - there is no warranty or guarantee that comes with the car - The buyer must pay $500 deposit immediately via PayPal - The balance is to be paid via certified check within 3 business days -The check must clear my bank before the clear title will be signed over and the car released (approx. 5 banking days)  Please note: I will not sell to anyone in Mexico or Central America because of the scams coming from these regions…. Thanks for looking…  Gary W.

Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why

Sun, 27 Jan 2013

Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.

2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.
