Repairable Rebuildable Project Light Collision Damage Easy Fixer!!! on 2040-cars
Enfield, Connecticut, United States
|
This auction is for a 1981 Corvette which has been involved in a front end collision. It was paid off by the former owners insurance company, and I purchased it from their auction. The title has been signed over by the insurance company, but has not been stamped salvage. This may or may not deem the title salvage, depending on your state's laws. The car is in great shape for it's age. The interior looks to have been restored at some point and is in beautiful condition as seen in the pics. The body looks excellent, except for the obvious damage to the front end. I have a lot of experience with C3 Corvettes and this one looks like it had never been hit before. The frame looks straight, I see nothing bent, except possible the horns at the very front, which are very thin and can be moved with a hammer if needed. The remainder of the frame is exceptionally clean for a 33 yr old car. The exhaust is in excellent condition and looks fairly new. The tires look fairly new too, with lots of tread. The car starts right up and idles fine, sounds good, with no noise or smoke. I see a Crane Cam sticker inside the hood, the car has a nice lope to it. Other than that, the engine appears all original, down to the valve covers and air cleaner. It has a small exhaust leak and there is a pair of hoses missing from the AIR pump to the exhaust manifolds. The car drives in the yard. The brakes work but the pedal feels soft. There is an aftermarket stereo in the dash, along with a multi disc CD changer and amp in the back cargo area. The car also has a very nice set of PPG glass t tops. I have all of the damaged parts that I removed from the car and have saved the hardware in Ziploc bags. This car is being relisted due to a non paying bidder. Please do not bid unless you intend to follow through with your commitment. You are bidding to buy the car, not to think about whether you want it or not. If you are a new bidder with zero feedback please email me before bidding or I will cancel your bid. I'm sorry to have to say all of this but some people ruin it for everybody. This car is being sold as a repairable in as is condition, with no warranty. It is the buyer's responsibility to ensure that it has been repaired to roadworthy condition before driving on public roads. Buyer is responsible for shipping, but I can list it on Central Dispatch to help find a ride home for it. We will be glad to help load the car on our end. Please feel free to email me with any questions. |

GM sweetens military discount for Buick, Chevy and GMC
Sun, 06 Oct 2013American servicemen and women interested in a new vehicle from Chevrolet, Buick or GMC now have a bit more incentive to head down to their local dealer, as General Motors has announced plans to improve its military discount program.
The new GM Military Discount Program offers eligible consumers a new Chevy, Buick or GMC at invoice pricing, which in some cases can take very large chunks out of a car's retail price. When factored in with other incentives, most of which are available with the Military Discount, the bargains are thick on the ground for members of the US armed forces.
GM's Retail Sales and Marketing Support general manager, Chuck Thomson, said, "GM has long supported the military and military families, and we hope this simplified and enhanced discount will show our appreciation for their service and help make it easier for them to own one of our great new vehicles." The program is open to all active duty and reserve members in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, National Guard and Coast Guard, as well as veterans that have been out of the service for less than a year. Military retirees and their spouses are also eligible for the discount.
2014 Chevrolet Impala [w/video]
Fri, 15 Mar 2013Can A Fleet Queen Become a Fullsize King?
On paper, the Chevrolet Impala is a pretty strong seller, posting annual sales that have hovered right around 170,000 units for the last two years, but it only takes one trip to practically any rental car agency to discover where the majority of those sales have come from. In fact, General Motors told Autoblog that a full 70 percent of Impala sales last year went to fleet companies for things like rental cars and government vehicles. Logic tells us that this is neither good for resale values nor name equity, so Chevrolet is getting ready to roll out an all-new Impala with improved comfort, styling and technology, hoping to turn the tables on its retail-to-fleet ratio.
Chevrolet's sedans have come on quite strong in the last few months with the introduction of the Cruze diesel and the SS sedan, but while these will likely be low-volume sellers, there's more pressure for the new Impala to perform well as GM looks to slash fleet sales and compete with the wide variety of full-size sub-luxury sedans. Riding on a platform shared with the Buick LaCrosse and Cadillac XTS, the 2014 Impala will compete against the Hyundai Azera, Ford Taurus and Toyota Avalon on the more traditional side, while also looking to take a bite out of somewhat sportier models like the Chrysler 300/Dodge Charger twins and the Nissan Maxima. We headed to sunny San Diego to see if this totally new Impala can stand on its own without the assistance of fleet companies and rental agencies. [w/video
Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts
Wed, 27 Feb 2013There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.
