1964 - Chevrolet Corvette on 2040-cars
Adelanto, California, United States
1964 Corvette Coupe L84 327 375HP PB, being sold without the fuel injection unit. Engine: It has a 327 fully rebuilt. Old parts used inside the engine are the crank, rods, block and heads. All other parts inside block were replaced. I built this engine to speck, solid cam (Duntov 30/30) factory hi compression pistons and all other needed bits & pieces. Outside the engine I used the original starter (date coded) Water Pump, Fuel Pump and deep sump oil pan. I had the engine rebuilt with a winters intake and holly carb. This combination dynode out at 375HP @6400 RPM. The modifications on this engine are, distributor changed to electric pickup, rocker arms upgraded and the valve studs changed to thread in units. I have a complete and restored fuel injection unit with K66 ignition that I was going to sell with this car, but changed my mind. If interested in this setup, email me. Transmission : 4 speed, M21 close ratio Rear : Was a 456 Posi rear. When I pulled it for a rebuild, I changed the ratio to 411. Fully rebuilt with under 200 miles on it. Suspension : I replaced the front sway bar end links, rear shocks, rear spring and end links. The tires have less than 1000 miles on them. Every thing else has unknown wear/miles on it. Body: It now has a good coat of silver on it, but it was dark blue (Daytona Blue) when it left the factory. The emblems are shinny, but have some paint loss. Sometime before I owned this car, someone had all the wheel wells flared out. When this was corrected back to a factory look, the job wasn't done so well. Although the paint is good, the body would be considered driver quality. Interior: Now black, the factory color was two tone, Dark Blue and White. The current seat covers are a little worn with slight rips on the upper inner sides of them. The carpet is a bit faded and the door panels look good. I had the steering collum rebuilt and the dash wiring harness replaced a while back. Misc : I had the engine harness replaced with the engine rebuild. I replaced the headlamp wiring to remedy a headlamp that wouldn't open properly. I replaced the alternator with a 130 amp unit. It really makes a difference on the brightness of the tail lamps. The license plates on the car have been updated to old black plates though the state DMV and come with the car. Runs/Drives: Starts up easy, idles well, runs good. Has Power brakes, stops good for 4 wheel drum brakes.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards
Tue, 27 Nov 2012Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors
Mon, 04 Feb 2013As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize.
