1969 Chevrolet Caprice 2 DOOR *BIG BLOCK* PLEASE READ THE AD COMPLETELY This car runs down the road like a dream, very smooth, transmission is tight, motor is strong, suspension floats right along, and the brakes work great. This is definitely a driver's car. Whether you want to cruise it to work, car shows, or up the highway and out of town, this car is ready for it. The car has a 454ci engine, T400 Transmission, and 12 Bolt Rear End. It originally had a 396ci engine. I was told that the intake and exhaust manifolds are original but I'm not sure how to verify that. The body of the car is pretty darn solid except for the rear lower sections of both fenders. There is some rust on both sides but I purchased patch panels for both sides and ill throw them in with the purchase of the car. The paint of the car is oxidized from years of sitting but could be buffed up nicely, some chipping on the hood and nose, and a few dingers and dents here and there. The left rear quarter trim has a piece missing but I have another one that is COMPLETE that will be thrown in with the car!! Everything I've noticed I took a picture of so you can see what is going on with the car. The trunk, floors, frame, and underbody are VERY solid. The interior is pretty nice, good carpet, seats have good cushion still, dash is Nice, as well as the instrument panels. The seat has a couple tears in it, as well as some buttons missing. The headliner has a small tear too. To me this car is in great shape especially in comparison to a lot of others. It has its minor cosmetic flaw which are shown in the pictures, but to the right person this is a gem.... to someone that wants a solid car, smooth driver, and that's ready to hit the road. Please ask any questions about the car that you feel fit, I will answer them honestly and to the best of my knowledge. If you would like specific pictures please let me know and I will get them over right away, as I'm not here to hide anything about the car. Also the car is available for show if you are in the area, I would be happy to show it. Also its for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early. The Car is being sold as is with no warranty. The buyer is responsible for pick up and/or shipping of the vehicle. If you have questions you are also more than welcome to call or text as well 815-980-0125 if I do not answer, leave a message and ill get back to you. Thanks for Looking and Happy Bidding |

Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.
Fewer than 1 in 3 Chevy dealers earn right to initially sell C7 Corvette
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Looking to make the launch of the 2014 Corvette Stingray as efficient as possible, Chevrolet will be limiting the numbers of its dealers that can sell the all-new coupe and convertible. According to Automotive News, sales of the C7 Corvette will initially be limited to less than a third of Chevy's total dealership network when the 'Vette goes on sale this summer.
Only 900 dealers out of more than 3,000 locations nationwide will be allowed to sell the new Corvette at first, and the reason for this is so that there are no shortages at dealers that can actually get the cars sold. The article says that the 900 dealerships chosen represented 80 percent of total Corvette sales in 2012.
Some of the requirements dealers had to make to get initial allocation of Stingray sales include having sold at least four Corvettes in 2012 and having a Corvette Stingray specialist who will be required to have gone through a training session costing more than $2,000 per attendee. Once demand for the 2014 Corvette Stingray begins to subside - approximately six to nine months after it goes on sale - then allocation could open up to more dealers, but the report indicates this could happen following the 2014 model year.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray priced from $51,995*
Fri, 26 Apr 2013After months of speculation, Chevrolet has finally revealed the official starting price of the 2014 Corvette Stingray. The base MSRP for the 450-horsepower Stingray Coupe will be $51,995, while the Stingray Convertible will go for $56,995 (*both prices include a $995 destination fee). This means that the price increase from 2013 to 2014 is just $1,400 for the coupe and $2,395 for the convertible - pretty modest increases considering the upgrade in specifications. Of course, neither price accounts for the sort of dealer markup that might grace early C7 window stickers, especially since less than a third of all Chevrolet dealers will be allocated Corvette models to sell at the car's launch.
Now, these prices are for the base car, so if you're wondering how much a fully loaded Stingray will run, Chevy has given us a good indication of that as well. The coupe we saw on display at the Detroit Auto Show (shown above), for example, would run $73,360 including options such as the $2,800 Z51 Performance Package, $2,495 competition sport seats and the $1,795 Magnetic Ride Control option - just to name a few. Stepping up to the 3LT trim level that brings a full leather interior will run an extra $8,005 over the base price.
While $20,000 in options may seem like a lot, this "as-tested" price still has the C7 competitively priced against rival coupes like the Porsche 911 and Nissan GT-R. Speaking of price comparisons, Chevrolet also points out that the C7 Stingray Z51 costs $2,200 less than the C6 Grand Sport while delivering better acceleration (0-60 mph in less than four seconds) and improved track performance (including more than 1 g in cornering).
