About this Vette:
This was the last year of the front & rear chrome bumpers. No AC, No Power Windows.
The original colors were Ontario Orange w/Tan Interior.
The exterior is not Steel Cities Grey, it's the Dark Metallic Grey that Chevy used on the 2001 trucks.
The new paint has been professionally done after removing all of the previous paint (had been repainted 2x). 
The car has not been driven and has been garage stored with fitted flannel cover (included) since new paint and looks great.
Receipts for prep, paint & replace windshield totaled $8,645.
Between Ecklers and Corvette Central I've spent more than $7500 in parts, with an additional $1000 or so going to other sources.
The original hood was replaced with a "Long" L-88 Hood, eliminating the air actuated wiper door and providing extra clearance in the event a Big Block was desired.
Currently in the process of installing new wiring harnesses including all new bulbs and proper fuses.
The Weather Stripping and Interior has NOT yet been reinstalled.
Windshield is new (professionally installed), side and rear windows are original but are in good shape.
The 350 cu/in motor is not original (recently replaced, I don't know the actual milage but it looks to be fairly new and ran strong). Tach and Speedo cables were replaced since I had the dash out.
The Exhaust System aft of the headers was removed with the intent of replacing the entire system utilizing side pipes (current headers are in place but planned on replacing them due to fitment requirements of the side exhaust. (The Side Exhaust Conversion Panel replaced the stock rear panel prior to paint)
The Fuel Tank was removed/discarded and will need replacement. 
The Battery Box was re-glassed and a new battery will be required.
The Wheels are Center Line 8 x15 with BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires in good shape (spare tire needs to be replaced).

New Items Installed:
  • Seat Belts 
  • All Fasteners are New and Proper
  • Wiring Harnesses Including Fuse Block & Antenna Assembly
  • Window Track Lift Arm Rebuild Kits
  • Door Operating/Locking Mechanism Anti Rattle Grommets/Clips
  • Door Lock Cylinders

  • Deluxe Door Panels, Door Vapor/Sound Barriers, Window Cranks, Inside Door Release Handles & Door Pulls
  • Dash Panels: Dashboard, Shift, Driver (Instrument) & Passenger (Map Pocket)
  • All Weather Stripping
  • Shift Console, Leather Shift Boot
The radio and clock are new (quartz clock and radio look original, radio has an auxiliary audio input in back for your iPod/iPhone or other audio input).

  • Haines Repair Manual for 68-82 Corvettes
When I bought this car the Odometer Reading on the Title was "EXEMPT" due to the age of the vehicle. The Odometer Reading on the Speedometer shows 34457. I don't think this car has 134,457 miles on it due to the shape it's in but I don't claim the milage is 34,457 either... Probably somewhere in between.

Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.
