Here is an outstanding 1971 Corvette Coupe in spectacular Ontario Orange - paint code 987; complimented with Deluxe Saddle Tan leather - trim code 420. The car's official production date documented by GM was 06/10/71 and subsequently delivered to Spedding Chevrolet in Denver, Colorado. What makes this car special is it's low actual mileage (14,115); all of the gauges are original and have not been restored with exception of the clock. All interior vinyl is original; new carpeting, seating and console trim was replaced to give the car an as new appearance.
It was delivered with the following options: J50 Power Brakes, LS5 - 454 c.i. 365 hp engine, M21 close ratio 4 speed transmission, N37 Tilt - Telescopic Steering Column, N40 Power Steering, U79 AM-FM Stereo, ZQ1 Optional Rear Axle Ratio (3.08). I have not been able to determine if it was delivered with P02 hubcaps or rallye trim rings; both come with the car.
Number Matching absolutely! The engine is original to the car from it's birth date; TO 521 CPH with the serial number stamped in the pad as well. Transmission is also original to the car; P1E20B with the serial number also stamped into the casing. The rear axle is also original to the car and dated E-81. All manifolds are date correct to the car, one was replaced. Carburetor, Starter, Water Pump, Alternator and Pulleys are all date correct and original. The original frame stencil was visible and faithfully reapplied and reflects a fabrication date of 5-3-71.
The car has undergone a thorough nut and bolt frame off restoration. The pictures do not do the car justice; I am sure you will have questions regarding this absolutely beautiful automobile. Please call me at 970-396-1587 to discuss any details or clarifications.
Thank you, happy bidding!

GM recalling 250,000 SUVs over door electronics
Mon, 20 Aug 2012After a door-fire investigation that dates back to February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially announced a recall today that affects around 250,000 General Motors SUVs for a faulty driver's door module. The recall applies to the Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X from the 2006 and 2007 model years, as well as the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL for vehicles sold and/or registered in the Snow Belt.
Road salt use in these midwestern and northern states can lead to corrosion of the driver's door module on these GMT360 and GMT370 vehicles, which allows water to come in contact with the circuit board. If shorted out, the vehicle's power door locks and power windows will not work, and could possibly lead to overheating and, in some circumstances, a fire. No official word on how many total vehicles caught on fire, but back in June, 28 fires had been reported to the government agency. A fix for the problem is still being worked out, but all affected vehicle owners will be notified by GM.

2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut
Sat, 16 Feb 2013Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.
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.
