THIS IS A 1977 CORVETTE ALL ORIGINAL MISSING A FEW PARTS BUT WAS STORED FOR 20 YEARS SO HAS VERY LOW MILES FOR THE YEAR. THIS COULD BE A DRIVER BUT THE WATER PUMP LEAKED ALITTLE AND WILL NEED POSSIBLE FRONT CALIPERS SENSE THEY ARE FROZE UP FROM SETTING SO YOU MIGHT BEABLE TO FREE THEM UP OR MIGHT HAVE TO CHANGE THEM SO CAR IS NOT DRIVABLE THE WAY IT IS SENSE THERE IS NO BRAKES. CAR STARTS UP GREAT AND RUNS GOOD AND IT DOES GO IN REVERSE,DRIVE FINE AND DOES MOVE SO TRANS SEEMS TO WORK FINE. THE BODY IS IN PREETY GOOD CONDITION BUT COULD USE A NEW PAINT JOB SENSE SOME OF THE PAINT IS FLAKING OFF IN AREAS AND THE IS A FEW SMALL CRACKS IN FIBERGLASS BODY BUT NO BIG CRACKS, THERE IS SOME OF THE INTERIOR PIEACES MISSING BUT THATS THE WAY I GOT IT AND SEATS ARE OK. THIS IS CONSIDERD A PROJECT CAR BUT NOT A MAJOR PROJECT I WOULD SAY UNLESS GOING TO RESTORE THE COMPLETE CAR. SOME OF THE STUFF INSIDE WORK LIKE TACH,OIL,WATER,VOLTS BUT OTHER STUFF LIKE POWER WINDOWS,CLOCK AND 1 HEADLIGHT GOES UP BUT THE OTHER DONT NOT SURE WHY COULD BE SOMETHING LIKE VACUM BUT NOT SURE THE GUY I GOT IT FROM SAID THEY STARTED TAKING IT APART AND THEN NEVER FINISHED SO SOME OF THE PARTS LIKE INTERIOR PIEACES GOT LOST OVER THE YEARS. THE BLINKERS WORK SO SOME OF THE OTHER STUFF MIGHT BE UNHOOKED OR NEED FUZES BUT NOT SURE. THE FRAME LOOKS GOOD IT IS RUSTY LOOKING BUT LOOKED IT OVER GOOD AND IT IS SOILD DIDN T SEE ANY HOLES OR RUSTED THROUGH. I AM TRYING TO TELL EVERYTHING I KNOW ABOUT THE CAR IM NOT A CORVETTE GUY I JUST GOT IT RUNNING AND PUT NEW SPARK PLUGS IN IT AND NEW GAS AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP AND TRANS WORK ALSO.IT HAS ORIGINAL MILES OF 75,645 ONLY AND EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE ORIGINAL BUT IS MISSING THE ORIGINAL AIR CLEANER. MY RESERVE IS VERY FAIR AND A CHEAP WAY TO GET INTO A CORVETTE OR YOUR NEXT PROJECT. THE INTERIOR LOOKS TO BE A LIGHT GREY COLOR. LIKE I SAID THERE IS A FEW PARTS MISSING ON INSIDE AND OUTSIDE BUT NOTHING MAJOR. ALL THE WINDOWS ARE IN GOOD CONDITION WITH NO CRACKS. THE BACK TAIL LIGHTS ON DRIVER SIDE ARE CRACKED AND 1 IS BROKE OUT BUT STILL WORKS AND A EASY FIX AND CHEAP. THE DOOR SIDE MIRROR IS MISSING. THE FRONT TIRES ARE NO GOOD BUT DO HOLD AIR BACK TIRES HAVE GOOD TREAD AND COULD BE USED.

Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why
Sun, 27 Jan 2013Just 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.
Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]
Mon, 27 May 2013If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction
Sun, 17 Feb 2013It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
