1985 Corvette 4+3. 350 v8 tune port fuel injection, the transmission is the Doug Nash "4+3" transmission - a 4-speed manual coupled to an automatic overdrive on the top three gears. The car has 114K miles on it. It is not a daily driver. I've put less than 1,000 miles on the car since January. I drive an hour one way to work, so I do not drive the car except when I am on my days off. The car is in very good condition and has been taken care of (even babied). New tires all around and not the '85 factory wheels (they have been upgraded). The car has the moon roof in it that can be taken out and stored in the hatch. Upgraded sound system to a CD player, installed door speakers and rear speakers being pushed with a 600 watt amp. 2 - 12" subs in the hatch being pushed by a 1,000 watt amp and routed through a passive EQ for excellent sound. The latest maintenance completed on the car was a new timing chain, water pump, harmonic balancer, motor mounts & drive (serpentine) belt. Things I think the car will need soon: brakes to be bled (to strengthen the pedal), new window tint on both doors, hydraulic arms for the rear hatch & air conditioner will need to be charged. Other than that, the car is solid and like I said, well taken care of. It has been driven respectfully (because I do not want to tear the car up). The reason I am wanting to sell is because I have a camper. I am looking for a truck to pull the camper with. I am married with six children and the 'vette only seats 2. :-) My family time is more important right now than "cruising" time so I am going to sell or trade for a truck. I figured I would start here first and see what happens. If there are ANY questions at all, please ask. I will do my best to answer everything! Thanks for looking and bidding. I am also interested in trading if there's a truck out there that someone wants to get rid of that peaks my interest!

Expect greater differentiation in GM's next-generation SUVs
Thu, 03 Jan 2013General Motors says its next-generation Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade models will offer shoppers improved interior differentiation. Car and Driver recently caught up with Chris Hilts, GM's creative manager of interior design, who said that the cabins will all feature unique instrument panels, consoles, center stacks and switchgear moving forward. Apparently GM is now aware that consumers may be bothered by the fact that today's $85,000 Escalade has effectively the same cabin as a $45,000 Tahoe. Hilts says SUV buyers want more refinement than their pickup purchasing counterparts - and those same buyers also want their SUVs to have more exterior differentiation between the company's Silverado and Sierra pickup lines. Shocking.
That all sounds good to us, but we've heard this song and dance before. GM made big waves about how different the new-for-2013 Silverado and Sierra would look from each other, but judging by what we've seen so far, GM's stylists are painting in shades rather than with the full spectrum.

GM says hybrid Corvette no laughing matter [w/poll]
Fri, 30 Aug 2013When 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.
C7 Corvette turbo with 1,000 horsepower promised from Hennessey
Mon, 25 Feb 2013If you can't wait for the next-generation Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Hennessey says they will have you covered. The Texas-based company has announced it will offer a spate of upgrades for the 2014 Corvette ranging from a range of bolt-on options all the way up to a 1,000-horsepower, twin-turbo system. Buyers can start with a cold air intake, cat-back exhaust or stainless steel long-tube headers, but Hennessey says it will also offer up three stages of forced induction mayhem should those bits and baubles not provide enough thrust.
Those choices start with a supercharger system good for up to 700 hp, though Hennessey will gladly ditch the blower in favor of two turbos. Doing so will spin the crank to the tune of 800 horsepower all the way up to a certifiably ludicrous 1,000 ponies. There's no word on how much these tricks will cost you - or when they will be available, as we're guessing they haven't gotten their hands on the car yet - but you can head over to the Hennessey site to drop them a line if you're curious.
