1977 L48 Chevrolet Corvette.   I purchased this vehicle last year from a Corvette Dealer in NC.  The dealer has been in business for 40 years and is known for selling nice Corvettes.  The car was miles exempt when purchased. The odometer reads 06228. It is most likely 106,228  . This is a very rattle free tight driving C3 Corvette. The smoothest I have ever owned or driven. The serial numbers on the engine are for an L-48 for that year Corvette.  The interior is beautiful on the car.  I replaced the steering wheel with a new reproduction wheel.  The car also has a new Kenwood (remote control stereo). The carpet is new and the door panels look brand new.  All the gauges work. The clock is the only thing that does not work (common problem).  I had the dealership fix the headlights (they work great and go up fast and precise). The A/C blows ice cold also.  The BF Goodrich Radial T/As look brand new as do the optional factory aluminum wheels. I also put a new top of the line Advance Auto Parts battery in a few months ago.  The motor may have been rebuilt (not sure). It runs like a low mile 350.  No smoke when started or when operating. The car has a performance cam along with an Edelbrock Performer Intake Manifold. Also an Edelbrock 600cfm electric choke carb. Not sure on the cam specifics. I just bought the carb from Summit Racing and had my mechanic adjust the electric choke etc. The TH350 transmission shifts smooth.  The engine leaks a small amount of oil. Not anything to notice on the dip stick. The paint is very nice on the car and only has a few minor flaws. The nose has a scratch that was touched up and the hood has a chip on the edge of it by the passengers side windshield area (photo taken).  The plastic bumperettes have a few small stress cracks in the rear bumper. Common for C3s with these bumpers due to age etc.  Very hard to notice them.  The car is not a 100 point show car.  It is a very clean C3 Corvette that you can take to a car show or drive on a nice day. This car runs great and sounds great.  I can provide further photos if needed.  The car is located in NC.

Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why

Sun, 27 Jan 2013

Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.

UAW to vote on strike at Kentucky Corvette plant

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

The current wait time for a new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is well, not short. With word of a strike at the Bowling Green, KY factory responsible for seventh-generation sports car, though, that wait time could end up growing substantially.
Now, a strike is still a ways off. UAW Local 2164, which represents the 800 workers responsible for screwing the Corvette together, is set to vote on authorizing a strike today, but even if the employees give the action a go, it's far from a sure thing. According to The Tennessean, both regional and national union officials would need to put their stamp of approval on strike action.
"The membership has to vote to strike, but it's just a step in the process," said Gary Casteel, the UAW's Region 8 director and one of the people that would need to authorize a strike action. Casteel told The Tennessean, "It's purely a local situation, though. They are having some issues with the local management."

Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.
