In January 1987, Car and Driver magazine picked Corvette as one of the world's top 10 cars. This car is evidence for the decision of Car and Driver! Cherry red inside and out. No dings, rust, or scratches. This is a second owner car and has been in Fallon, Nevada since the mid 90's. It was purchased as an anniversary present for the current owner. She is GORGEOUS. Her name is Ms. Scarlette and that name is embroidered in red on her custom black dash mat. The dash under the mat is in pristine condition as is the rest of the car. The car has custom gold plated door handles, gold plated license plate frames, gold pinstriping graphics and gold Covette emblems.
The car is equipped with an automatic transmission with a powerful V-8 engine with actual mileage of 56,410. Runs and looks better than cars that are many years newer. The interior has the comfortable deep red leather bucket seating, red plush carpet and features beautiful highly polished wood grain dash and console. The stereo system has bose speakers and comes with the original AM/FM radio and cassette player.
The owners added custom chrome tips to the tailpipes as well as Flowmaster mufflers. The car comes with a custom car cover and even has Hawaiian print sunshades to keep the interior cool.
The only two known flaws are cosmetic. The driver window has some bubbles in the window tinting and the other small issue is two scratches in the glass at the back of the hatch where someone tried to break in the car.
This car is a fabulous Corvette and would make a great addition to your car family. The car is located in Fallon, Nevada which is 60 miles from Reno in northern Nevada. We are timing this auction to end just before Hot August Nights which is a HUGE car gathering in Reno. So if you are coming this way for HAN we can help arrange auto transport.

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.
Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing
Tue, 21 Sep 2010Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.
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.
