1982 Chevrolet Corvette

 


95,xxx miles


Black/Gray


Automatic

 

I have a 1982 Corvette for sale with 95, xxx miles.  I still drive this car, but not as often as I would like, so the miles will change slightly from what is shown in the pictures.  It has a stock 350ci engine with numbers matching.  I am deploying soon, and do not want to store it while I am gone.  I have the clear title in hand. 

The paint is in good condition, given the age of the car with slight blemishes here and there.  As you can see in the pictures on the front bumper the previous owner bumped into a pole, which cracked the paint and gave the fiberglass that ripple effect, you see on most C3 Corvettes.  I was going to buy a car bra/nose mask to help cover up the eye sore on the front end, as a temporary fix until I got around to fixing it the correct way.  I have the front emblem in the glove box.  Besides the front bumper, all other panels on the car look true and straight.  The corvette has been kept in a garage or under a cover most of its life. 

The tires are all brand new and so are the pads and rotors on all four wheels.  New steel-braided brake lines were ran, as well as a new distributor and new spark plugs. This corvette is an automatic and shifts very smoothly.  I have the headlight winter switch pulled up because only one headlight works correctly.  You can get a new pair of light actuators on eBay for $120.  I also just had the exhaust replaced with true dual 409 Stainless Steel.  The stock system had the y-pipe.  The new exhaust installed less than 1000 miles ago is from the manifold back.  I deleted the catalytic converter, and it exits out two Flowmaster super 44 stainless steel mufflers.  It has a nice rumble to it, but not obnoxiously loud.  The stainless steel system is built stronger then the aluminized steel replacement exhaust systems. 

The interior is very clean with new leather seats and new carpet with Dynamat sound deadener underneath the entire floor.  There is a tear in the dash above the center instrument cluster.  The original radio is still in the car, but was unplugged when the carpet was installed and never plugged back in.  The car passed inspection in July, and if you get classic plates like I have then you do not need to get emissions done yearly (for PA).  The tachometer has not worked since I bought the car, but it is an automatic so you normally don’t watch the rpms.

Overall it is a strong, reliable car that I would not hesitate to take on any long trips.  She runs well and shifts smoothly.  I hate to see her go, but my loss is your gain.  If you have any other questions or concerns, please contact me.  Or if you would like to see it in person, we can set up an appointment.  Car may also be listed for sale locally, so I have the right to end the auction early if need be.  Car is sold as is, with no warranty implied by owner.  Good Luck!

This part does not apply to most Ebay users, but after the run around with the last failed sale I felt the need to include it.

This Corvette is being re-listed due to a non-paying bidder (njborn89123).  I thought it was clear that the buyer should read the full description listed.  It is also the buyer’s responsibility to set up all shipping.  Finances are also your responsibility.  Please check to make sure you can afford to pay for this corvette before placing your bid.  Bidding on the vehicle to win is agreeing to pay for the merchandise listed, it does not mean ignoring the seller, playing dumb, and not actually planning on buying the car.  I am here to help in any legal way I can to make this a smooth transaction.  I check my inbox often to answer any questions that come up and I am more then happy to show the car in person during the listing.

2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel arrives with 42 mpg for $25,695*

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

The last time General Motors had a diesel passenger car in the US, it was the 1.8-liter 1986 Chevette. At the 2013 Chicago Auto Show today, GM is unveiling the much-anticipated 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Diesel. The compact bows with a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine that boasts 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, with full twist coming on at just 2,000 rpm. What's more, the common-rail, direct-injection diesel features an overboost function that allows the engine to deliver up to 280 lb-ft of torque for 10 seconds at a time. Even with 10 more horsepower and 110 more pound-feet of torque than the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder in the Cruze, the 2.0-liter diesel engine can return up to 42 mpg (highway) bolted to its six-speed automatic transmission.
If you're counting, that figure meets the less powerful Cruze Eco with a six-speed manual transmission. More importantly, the auto transmission Cruze Diesel matches its main competition, the Volkswagen Jetta TDI, in highway fuel economy. The Cruze 2.0 TD (as it will be badged) can also handle up to 20 percent biodiesel (B20), whereas the Jetta is rated only for B5. General Motors has not released city fuel economy for its newest diesel, but we do know how much it will cost you to jump behind the driver's seat.
GM will kindly ask for $25,695, plus an $810 destination fee. That marks a $2,115 premium over a loaded Cruze LTZ Auto and $2,640 more than the Jetta TDI, though the MSRP will net you a leather interior, 17-inch alloy wheels and an Aero Performance Package, as well as a two-year maintenance plan and five-year, 100,000-mile powertrain warranty. Compared to the gas-powered Cruze, you also lose a couple cubic feet of rear cargo space thanks to a 17-liter diesel emission fluid tank. That urea fluid, which helps put the clean in clean diesel, will need to be refilled at least every 10,000 miles.

The 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is for drivers who value performance above all else

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

The car you see above is the 2014 Chevrolet SS, and it's important both because it is the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from Chevy in 17 years, and because it will be the nameplate the brand uses on NASCAR tracks all across the country starting this year.
Though it wears a name as American as baseball and apple pie, the machine was actually designed and built in Australia, sharing most of its parts with the brand-new VF-model Holden Commodore. That said, the basic chassis bits are shared with other Chevrolet models like the Camaro and Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle.
While Chevrolet is happy to sell a Malibu or Impala to anyone looking for a mainstream family sedan, but the SS is reserved for buyers interested first and foremost in performance. Most sedans sold these days are front-wheel drive, which is great for everyday driving and when the weather goes bad, but the SS is instead a rear-wheel-drive vehicle aimed at enthusiasts who love to drive and who prefer speed and performance above all else.

Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica

Fri, 03 Aug 2012

If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
