Has some minor rust on rear lower quarters and panel below decklid, as well as front floor pans, but easy fix. No rust anywhere else. Have all trim pieces including extra pieces. Taillights are '54 chrome bezels with aftermarket Lee bubble lenses. Headlights are original bezels and new headlights.
Interior: Original bench seats, recovered in the 90's with blue fabric/velour, looks decent. No carpet, headliner is original and needs to be replaced but have all bows, no door panels, but have door panel trim pieces, arm rests, and backer panels to be recovered or used as pattern. Have misc Bel-Air interior trim pieces to dress up the interior as well. Chrome garnish moldings in driver quality, dash is complete minus radio, have ashtray and glovebox. Complete instrument cluster. Stewart Warner fuel level gauge works. Good clean original glass throughout, only vent windows show age, all glass rubber in decent shape.

Other: The alternator was robbed off this car and used on another vehicle, it was a Delco 10si, I might have another one I will toss in if I can find it. The brake master cyl was removed to fit new hoses and never reinstalled, two bolts and the hoses and it's done. It has speed bleeders on the front brakes for one-man bleeding. The oil filter relocation kit was to clear the stock '89 exhaust manifolds and was never mounted permanent, it could easily be mounted, or removed as the filter clears the manifolds fine. The exhaust was never hooked up to the manifolds. Was planning to build custom headers and a new exhaust system altogether, but didnt get that far. Easy to connect the pipes to the manifolds. The manifolds are original '89 with smog ports that were welded up, I have a set of identical manifolds without the smog ports that look better but are not installed. The firewall was smoothed, air vents left intact and they do work. Headlights, Taillights, Brake Lights, and Ignition all work. Car will need a new battery. I will include all extra parts and pieces I have for this car.
This is an easy project and can be put back on the road with a weekend of tinkering. Finish the body & paint and toss the interior back in and have a fine custom car that can be driven anywhere.
This car was a stalled project. In 2007 it got the engine/trans installed, rebuilt suspension, wiring, etc etc etc, and was running & driving in 2008, but never saw more than a few miles to work out the bugs. It got put on the backburner to work on other projects and has sat undriven since then, but was started every couple of months since. It has always been stored indoors, hasn't spent a night outside since we got it in 2007. This was an Oklahoma car, so the body is in decent condition. The title is a clear Oklahoma Title.
I'm sure I am forgetting things, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask via messaging and I will reply ASAP.
The car is located in North Austin, Texas. Will need to be towed away. No refunds, no returns, sold as-is.
**************************PHOTOS OF EXTERIOR WERE TAKEN WHEN THIS CAR WAS PULLED OUT OF MY SHOP THE DAY I MOVED, IT WAS PUT INTO THE NEW GARAGE ON THE SAME DAY. PLEASE EXCUSE THE DUST. I WILL TAKE NEW PHOTOS IN THE NEXT DAY OR SO AND WILL UPDATE THIS AD WITH THEM ASAP, THANKS.*****************************

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).
Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing
Tue, 21 Sep 2010Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.
