I believe this car to be an ex-drag car.  Has a strong running sbc engine and an automatic trans that has reverse but no forward.  The body shows good in photos but is an older restoration and will need attention again.  The floors will need replaced also.  Someone patched them back in the day.  Could just put carpet down and call it good, but i prefer to do a car like this the right way.  No drivers door glass and the left rear door glass is cracked.  Rest of the glass is good and in tack.  ALL of the body trim is on the car.  The bumpers are straight and could use new chrome.  Some lights work.  Interior is gutted but still has the folding rear seat.  It has had a fuel cell put in instead of the regular gas tank, probably due to being raced.  Brakes are up and working great.  I have the interior stainless for the door panels but no panels. I also have the inside window surrounds.  The car is a Project and should be considered as one.  Its a great start on a car and priced as such.  Im sure im forgetting alot of stuff that any serious buyer would want to know so i am including my Cell number in the description so u can call and talk directly to me.  Feel free to ad it to ur "watch list" so i can weed out and tire kickers... thats who usually watches auctions and not bids. The car has been stored for many years and has just recently been available to the public for sale.  I have it listed here AND on a few local sites, so if it sells locally I WILL DELETE ALL BIDS AND END THE AUCTION.  Im doing a short auction because i dont expect it to last long and i dont see any reason to drag out auctions.  If ur serious, please call the number and i can answer any and all questions u might have and also send u any detailed photos u might need.  989-670-2700

Was the C7 Corvette cut from Beyonce's Super Bowl halftime show?

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Someone was bound to receive a free 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray during the Super Bowl XLVII festivities; it just wasn't who we thought it was going to be. Despite a report back in December that superstar Beyoncé Knowles would be getting an all-new Corvette during her halftime performance, that turned out not to be the case. Joe Flacco, starting quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, did in fact win a Corvette for his MVP performance.
So what transpired that prevented Beyoncé from rolling on stage in the new Chevrolet? Anyone who knows isn't telling, but according to Yahoo! Autos, General Motors said that for one reason or another a deal "did not work out," and it appears to have been an eleventh-hour change. Regardless of who's to blame or what prevented this from happening, we're sure Chevy has had no problems getting attention for the C7 Corvette since it was introduced last month.

PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]

Wed, 19 Jun 2013

PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war

Sun, 30 Dec 2012

A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
