1987 Corvette project car runs & drives. 4+3 manual transmission. I believe it to be a Z51 as it says so in the center console. I believe the 68,033 miles are authentic. I have owned the car for almost three years it was bought as a project car and kept in my garage all that time. It is sold with a Maine title signed by the previous owner. I have never had it registered or on the road.
I put on custom rims and new tires, K&N air filter, spark plugs, thermostat. The exterior is in decent condition there is a large section on the hood where the paint is chipping off. Other than that I think it just needs a paint job. The interior is in fair shape the main exception is that both seats are in bad shape and so is the leather on the steering wheel. I also have the drivers door panel that is not in the pics or the video.
Some things I know don't work passenger headlight motor, drivers window, emergency brake, power adjustable seat.
Check out the video to see the car running. It doesn't smoke or leak any fluids. Transmission shifts into all four gears. What you don't really see in the video is that when you first start the car it usually runs a little rough for 30-60 seconds then smooths out and runs fine. I suspect really old gasoline might be the issue, but who knows. I know this car can yard drive but I've never had it out on the road most of my driving in it has been backing in and out of the garage to be worked on. Also to answer the question would I feel comfortable driving this car to California NO. I know the car works but I can't recommend anyone driving it to its destination it would be foolish. I don't mind storing this for a while if needed just let me know first. This is a project car it needs quite a bit of TLC I did my best to describe it but please ask questions if you have any.

GM throttles back Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse production over swollen inventories
Wed, 06 Feb 2013As inventory of the Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse continues to pile up, General Motors will be idling its Fairfax Assembly Plant for two weeks, according to Automotive News. This move comes about a month after the plant was shut down for three weeks in late December and early January for the same reason. As of January 31, the GM had a 94-day supply of Malibu stock while the LaCrosse was a little worse with a 117-day supply.
Just last week, GM announced that it would be investing $600 million in upgrading this plant, but it's unclear what future plans the company has in store for Fairfax considering slow sales of both the plant's models. We do expect a refreshed and more luxurious LaCrosse shortly and an early design update for the Malibu to be announced at some point this year, although we have had no official word as to when either will happen.
Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th
Tue, 15 Apr 2014It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.
Are you the 2014 Corvette Grand Sport?
Thu, 21 Feb 2013When are stripes more than just stripes? Follow up question: Is the product development team at Chevrolet really cocky enough to hide the next C7 Corvette variant in plain sight? This very recently spotted, and ostensibly obscured C7 asks a lot more questions than it answers, but there's at least some evidence to support that it might be the next Corvette Grand Sport.
The first and most obvious tip-off that something is up with this 'Vette revolves around those silver stripes. Obviously the stripes themselves don't necessarily denote a new model. However, when Chevy recently launched its "colorizer" website for the Stingray, there was no provision made for racing stripes - solid colors only.
Grand Sport exhibit number two is actually an incriminating lack of badges. The production Corvettes we've seen to date have all carried Stingray badges on their fenders, just behind the vent. The car seen in these images has no such badges, which is an intriguing omission on an car that looks like a production-spec vehicle otherwise.
