Original 1966 Chevelle Super Sport. This is a true RUST FREE 138 VIN car and it has the 396 big block NOM motor (casting number 3999290) with a turbo 400 auto transmission. I suspect the motor is bored and stroked given how strong it runs but I don't know this for a fact, as I have not been inside the motor. The cylinder heads are casting number 3856208 with big rectangular ports (most likely from a 1965 396/425 HP or Z-16/L37 Chevelle) and from the VIN (138176Z) we know this is a true, California Super Sport car manufactured at the Freemont, California plant. The firewall Trim Tag paint code (AA) indicates an original Tuxedo Black exterior color while the trim code (763) indicates it was originally supplied with Black Vinyl Bucket Seats. This car is rust free. While the car currently has a Turbo 400 auto trans, it was originally a 4-speed car and even has the clutch pedal assembly still in place. This would be an easy conversion if you wanted to go back to a manual transmission set up.

This car was built for pro-street and does drive good on the street. It has the fiberglass hood, trunk, and bumpers. Has Center Line Wheels , It also has a 4-link rear suspension with a set of Mickey Thompson 29X12.50-15LT tires that have some tread remaining, while still leaving room for a set of much wider tires if you wanted to mount them. It has a 4-link rear suspension with a 12 bolt rear end. Front power disc brakes with drilled and slotted front rotors, 7in. Dual diaphragm booster and rear drum brakes, stops great. The rear was tubbed for bigger tires and wheels and the job was done in a very professionally manner. The original black back seat base cushion and seat back are included with the car.

This Big Block motor runs very strong with a ratchet / slapstick B&M shifter making it a blast to drive. While I don't know all the details of the motor build, this is one of the strongest (and best sounding) drivetrains I've heard. The former owner / builder says it is running 13:1 compression. It has a Holley Strip Dominator single plane intake, with a Holley (List 4780-2) 800 CFM carburetor and Crane roller-rockers with huge headers and mufflers. MSD Ignition box with pro billet distributor and msd coil. Electric fuel pump. The previous owner also told me that it has 4:10 gears to put the power down. Here is a link a video to give an idea of how strong this motor sounds (http://youtu.be/rVHGw8j-1_k), but it still doesn't capture it as well as it does in person. This car is an absolute head-turner when it idles by with the nasty sounding motor.

The interior is clean as well. It still has racing bucket seats and driver side racing seat belts, the carpet is clean, and the headliner is clean and still in place. It has the optional full factory dash gauge package with two supplemental, after market (temperature and oil pressure) gauges mounted under the dash with a functioning fuel pressure gauge mounted directly in front of the driver's line of sight. It has an aftermarket tachometer mounted on the steering column that needs to be better attached to the column. The radio is missing though the dash does not appear to have ever been cut in anyway. All the glass windows are operational and in place. The interior door panels (and rear panel behind the rear seat between the wheel wells) have been replaced with nice aluminum panels but could be replaced with factory door panels if wanted to put it back to a stock configuration. Stainless steel sill plates.

The body of the car is in great shape. Base coat clear coat paint. All lights work. All trim is in great shape. There is no rust that I can find on the car. The black paint has a nice gloss, but has some nicks and surface scratches.

GM says hybrid Corvette no laughing matter [w/poll]

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

When Mark Reuss was in LA recently, he sat down to have a few words with the scribes at the Los Angeles Times. When the issue of a hybrid Corvette came up, Reuss answered with "Don't laugh." The General Motors president is a complete fan of the possibility, calling it "attractive" and "really fun," believing it would improve GM expertise and that "people would love it."
Naturally, the president being supportive of an idea doesn't give indication that a hybrid Corvette is on the way. However, with supercars like the Porsche 918 Spyder and Ferrari LaFerrari giving hybrid tech a solid, if remote, place in the performance car world, the inexorable trickle-down of technology means we shouldn't be surprised if and when it does happen.
And now that we have that non-negative half-answer to a speculative question, it would be irresponsible for us not to commence rumormilling for the C8 Corvette. Taking Reuss at his word, the C8 will obviously be a hybrid with all-wheel-drive - the left side wheels driven with electric motors, the right side with the mid-mounted, four-cylinder diesel engine. With coefficient of drag of just .16, figure on a 0-to-60 mile-per-hour time of under 2 seconds and an all-electric range of something like 30 miles at top speed. Don't forget, folks, you read it here first.

Amelia Island 2013: Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray from concepts to split windows

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

While this year marks 60 years of the Chevrolet Corvette, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance focused on one of the coupe's most sought after models, the 1963 Sting Ray. General Motors design boss Ed Welburn was on hand to show off the all-new C7 Corvette, but even the hard-edged styling of the 2014 Stingray couldn't take away from the beautiful 1963 models sitting out on the field.
In addition to the original Sting Ray and the 1959 Sting Ray Concept, some of the other classic 'Vettes included "Big Tank" racecars, an interesting cutaway coupe, a right-hand-drive Z06 and the attention-grabbing 1963 Corvette Rondine by Pininfarina. Another impressive Corvette was the 1964 Corvette XP-819 rear-engine prototype. Owner Mike Yager had the car finished as a driving chassis for this year's show, but promises the car will be back to its original glory in time for next year's event.
