1972 Corvette, Original Owner, Garage Kept, Original Paint, Matching Numbers on 2040-cars
Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, United States
1972 CORVETTE STINGRAY, Warbonnet Yellow (gold) with tan leather interior. PS, PB, PW, & A/C. T-TOPS, 350 V8, Auto Trans. Goodyear GT Radial tires. Original paint. My family has owned the vehicle since it was ordered and taken delivery of 9/71. It was my sister's car and she became ill and couldn't drive. The car was never driven in winter. She gave the car to me, but I just don't have time to drive it. The car has been stored in my garage for the last two and a half years and hasn't been driven. The car was on blocks and stored with an empty fuel tank. I put a new battery in it and two gallons of gas and it fired up. I pulled the car from the garage and hit the brakes hard and the pedal went to the ground. So it runs but doesn't stop. Might of just broke a brake line it seems to be leaking brake fluid in the middle of the rear of the car. Not a mechanic, so don't hold me to that. The car will probably need to be towed or trailered when purchased. All the fluids were full except for the rear of the master cylinder. When I started the car it smoked a little, but I think it was because it was only 36 degrees outside. I think the car could be a good driver or a gem if restored. Of course the car is 42 years old and is sold as is. The photos are of the actual car listed. PLEASE ask questions! Original owners manual, vehicle plate, and other supporting documents included with sale.

Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506
Thu, 02 May 2013With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.
Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]
Mon, 27 May 2013If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
2013 Chevy COPO Camaro announced with two new engines and manual option
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Chevrolet is following up the 2012 COPO Camaro with another limited run of the drag-strip-ready production car for 2013. Ditching the superchargers, the 2013 COPO Camaro can only be equipped with one of three naturally aspirated V8 engines, and other new features include the option of a manual transmission, new front springs, some minor styling changes and a lower starting price of $86,000. All cars are designed to abide by the rules of the NHRA's Stock Eliminator or Super Stock classifications, depending on in which series buyers wish to enter their Chevrolet Camaro.
Returning for 2013 is the 427-cubic-inch V8 producing 425 horsepower, but the new engines include a 325-hp 350-CID V8 and a 375-hp 396-CID V8. Buyers can select to purchase all three engines, and each will be matched with the sequence number of that car; the track-only COPO cars will not have vehicle identification numbers and can't be registered for street use.
Chevrolet is also offering unique enthusiast-specific options such as a COPO Build Book and the opportunity for owners to help assemble their car's engine at the Chevrolet Performance Build Center in Wixom, MI.
