1998 Chevy Lumina, Champagne Color, Decent Shape on 2040-cars
Ringgold, Virginia, United States
I purchased this 98 Lumina when I took a job as a rural route carrier for the Postal Service back in January of 2013. Purchased from a dealer who said it had been a one owner car, but I can't prove that. I recently quit working for the postal service and no longer need the car. The car has 168,000+ miles and it looks as though it has driven every last bit of it. The passenger side is scratched up along with the passenger sideview mirror due to having bumped a couple hundred mailboxes. Interior is tan cloth with some stains. a couple of the interior panels are falling off. I had the multi-function switch replaced by the Chevy dealer as my break lights were going out rather often. The dealer had to remove the driver airbag in the steering wheel to get to the switch, and now the airbag isn't secured back in place. it doesn't fall off when driving but, I'm not sure it would function as an actual airbag. The car has new front tires and new belts, and a recent oil change. The air condition doesn't work but, I have never charged it to see if it would work. Heat works great. There is a minor oil leak. Car has been reliable the 8 months or so I have owned it. It has been driven pretty hard as a mail car. It often stayed cranked for 8 hours a day and there was heavy stop and go. Just so you know, this car is a clunker.

Chevy confirms Corvette Stingray Convertible for Geneva
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Want proof that General Motors has increased global ambitions for its 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray? It's staging the world premiere of the model's convertible variant at the Geneva Motor Show early next month.
As previously rumored, the droptop rendered above will debut at the Swiss show, making its first appearance anywhere on March 5. According to Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet, the location makes sense because Corvette "...is an icon that has long been recognized and admired even in countries where it's never officially been offered."
While neither Chevrolet nor the Corvette has a major sales presence in Switzerland, the Bowtie's European headquarters is located in Zurich (about three hours to the northeast of Geneva) and GM has made it clear that it wants to build the Chevrolet brand up across Europe.
Why the Corvette is Chevrolet's billion-dollar baby
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Edmunds has worked up a piece that tries to figure out just how much the global Chevrolet Corvette economy is worth, a spitballed guesstimate putting the number at more than $2.5 billion with the proviso that the number is probably low. It starts by taking Corvette's new car sales of 14,132 units last year, which would equate to $714,725,900 (including destination) assuming ever car sold was a base coupe with no options. In the final tally, a little extra padding gets that number up to $750,000,000.
But that's not all. Consider this: Many of the almost 1.4 million Corvettes produced over the model's history are still on the road. There are new parts being produced and aftermarket companies like Mid-America Motorworks deaing business, that single Illinois company doing more than $40 million a year in sales. There are the Corvette events large and small, restorers who do nothing but Corvettes, salvage yards that deal only in used Corvette parts and the Corvette magazines where owners find all this stuff.
And then there are the Corvette-themed tchotchkes, every single one of which provides a tiny contribution to the huge licensing royalties that General Motors collects every year. The article admits there's no way to come to an accurate number, but it just goes to show how valuable one specific model can be to a company.
Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
