1961 corvette, the car is for the most part is complete. This was a old gasser race car when I got it, the original frame had been cut, welded and modified so it was replaced with a very nice complete, straight and rust free frame from 1960 corvette that was sanded blasted and painted about 12 years ago. The straight axel frontend from the gasser frame is under it now, but bolts up using the factory front cross member holes, no modifications to the frame. I will be putting the factory front cross member under this week. The rearend is a stock 1961 corvette with 336 grears. There is a couple of steering columns and boxes, one has a 1962 vin tag that is free and clear and there is also a vin # on the frame for a 1960 corvette that is clear also, but I do not have titles to anything will sale with a notorized bill of sale.
The body is nice, has some very light damaged spots here and there but over all very nice complete body. This car would be great to restore or a modified corvette with new running gear. I have a 1962 327 and a 4 speed both will need rebuilding.
The seats are complete with tracks but will need work. The hood has had some repairs and usable but I would put new skin on it or replace it. bumbers need to be rechromed. Some of the side trim will need replacing. None of the glass is good, the chrome around glass is is good condition. Doors are complete and nice. This would be a very easy car to do for someone that is on a budget and had some time. I will have this rolling and will steer for shipping.
This car is for sale locally and can end auction at any time. If you have questions you can call Tom at 253 405 9131

Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works
Fri, 22 Mar 2013When it comes to technology used in racecars, we generally expect it to trickle down to production cars, not the other way around. Well, Pratt & Miller has developed a new rear-facing radar that operates in a similar fashion to what we're used to in modern blind spot detection systems, only it is also capable of tracking cars as they approach and relaying vital information to the driver via a large display screen.
The innovative radar system debuted at last weekend's 12 Hours of Sebring for Corvette Racing, and this system makes perfect sense for endurance races like this since the cars sometimes have to drive through the night and in poor weather conditions.
The radar can detect cars even with poor visibility, and uses easy-to-distinguish symbols for the driver to identify.
Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard
Tue, 19 Mar 2013Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.
