I have a 1969 Corvette Stingray T-Top for sale. The car is completely original and everything is there except the exhaust pipes and gas tank. I even have the original keys, owners manual, and work order that was glued to the top of the gas tank. In 1976 my Grandfather parked it in his garage at 53,431 miles after clipping a deer. The deer incident broke both headlights and some of the fiberglass as seen in the photographs; he hoped to fix it but it never happened. I have new headlights to go in but fiberglass work is needed first. I began repairing some fiberglass blemishes in the back but did not get very far forward. The original paint is Fathom green. The interior is also green and in excellent shape. There is no tears or cracks except right next to the emergency brake lever. The motor is the original 350HP 350 with a 4 speed manual transmission. Some parts have been removed to get at the front end but I have all of them as seen in the photographs.
On Aug-29-13 at 10:42:41 PDT, seller added the following information:All numbers match and the original motor is in the car, however it does not run. I have a photo of the hood up that didn't make it into my ad. On Monday I will upload the photo.

Since I have posted this car to eBay it has been commented that the wheels on the car are not original. I did some checking and these wheels are not original and I don't know where the original ones are. Also, I have received a lot of messages in regards to the motor in the car and I must say if anyone thinks they are going to come over and start this car and drive it home they are crazy. It doesn't turn over - it needs to be overhauled.

Chevy shows much-improved 2014 Corvette interior in new video
Mon, 11 Feb 2013If you want a closer look at what went into designing and building the interior for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, we've got just the thing. General Motors has released a new video detailing the cabin's evolution from conception to execution, complete with commentary from Ryan Vaughn, performance car interior design manager with Chevrolet. The quick clip details how manufacturing, engineering and design within General Motors worked together from the first sketches to ensure no compromises had to be made later down the line. How novel.
With plenty of hides traced with contrast stitching and available real carbon fiber trim, the cabin looks to be a few hundred miles ahead of the C6. Given how readily critics derided the previous generation for its cabin, the C7 should make writers work a little harder to find something to complain about. Check out the video below for yourself.
Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
GM 6.2L V8 claims most powerful light-duty truck engine title
Thu, 12 Sep 2013General Motors has officially captured the horsepower crown for mainstream pickup trucks with its 6.2-liter V8. The big mill, available in both the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, comes to market with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, handily outdoing its two cross-town competitors, Ram (5.7-liter V8, 395 ponies and 407 lb-ft) and Ford (6.2-liter V8, 411 hp and 434 lb-ft).
The new GM 6.2 will take a bit of an investment, though. Those that want the extra thrust will need to go with either the LTZ or High Country trims from the Chevy, or the SLT and Denali trims from GMC, which are the two highest trim levels for the respective vehicles. Trim levels aside, if you're in the business of towing, GM has you covered. Optioned with the 6.2-liter V8 and the Max Trailering Package, owners will be able to pull 12,000 pounds, a hugely impressive figure.
We still aren't certain as to what sort of economy the new engine will get, but it'll probably be a bad bet for the fuel conscious. As for availability, expect to see the 6.2-liter trucks in showrooms later in the fall.
