This is my 1996 Caprice Classic with the LT1 motor and sport package that I bought new in December 1996. It is dark green grey metallic with grey cloth interior. It has 145,300 miles and located in eastern PA. It is PA inspected through 10/13. It has the heavy duty cooling with mechanical fan (trans oil cooler; radiator engine oil cooler); power seats; CD player; heat reflective windshield; leather wrapped steering wheel. Kumo all season tires have about 60% tread remaining. Over the years I have done a few minor modifications that include: 17 inch Impala SS wheels with Chevy bowtie center caps; Impala SS grille; Impala SS tail lights; Impala SS rear spoiler; bilstein shocks; power steering oil cooler; Power Slot rotors, and steel brake lines. All parts where GM parts except the rotors, bilsteins, and braided brake lines. Within the past 15,000 miles I have done the following: opti-spark and vent harness, water pump, radiator and heater hoses, belts, belt tensioners, spark plugs and wires - all New AC Delco parts. New AC Delco A/C compressor and accumulator and fan clutch. New front (Hawk) and rear (AC Delco) brake pads and shoes. New GM rebuilt transmission at 108,000 miles. Extremely well maintained and driven. Runs and performs great. Everything works except the cigarette lighter and trunk light. It is missing some door pull strap covers and the sun visor clip on driver's side. The odometer is unclear for the first few minutes after starting and then gets clear - the digital speedometer has no issues at all. No tears in upholstery and no one has ever smoked in the car. After spending about half of its life not in a garage, the paint is rough in spots, especially front bumper and there is one area of rust on the driver's side door sill, captured in the pictures. Please ask any questions that you may have and thank you for looking. EDIT: The carfax will say 2 owners because it was re-titled in FL for 1.5 years while I was there. As you will see, it was then re-titled back to PA. |

Man surprises girlfriend with C7 Corvette
Mon, 07 Oct 2013How would you react if someone just showed up at your place of work with a new, 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, complete with all the trimmings? While a lot of us would likely be flipping out over the still rare sports car, it's a fair bet many more of us would be responding like Pattie here, whose boyfriend stopped by her work to show her her new C7.
Speechless and shocked as she seems, she does end up taking it out for a drive, despite claiming she wasn't really outfitted to handle the car's seven-speed manual transmission at the time. From the sound of the video, we got the impression that she knew the car was coming, just not that it was anywhere near ready for delivery. It also, as Pattie says, seems like her boyfriend is more excited about the car than she (which, can we blame him?). Take a look down below for the full video of this C7 Stingray delivery.
Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors
Mon, 04 Feb 2013As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize. Scroll down below for an official announcement from General Motors.
Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction
Sun, 17 Feb 2013It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
