Pair Early C-1 Corvette Chrome Headlamp Rings Original Gm- Part # 3779239 on 2040-parts.com
Houston, Texas, US
Pair of Chrome Headlamp Ring Mouldings for a 1958 through 1960 Chevy Corvette. While GM replaced these with painted metal rings in their 1961's and 62's (to make the car appear "longer"), many people with these later models replaced them with the older chrome model. People still do. These Headlamp Rings were removed from a 1961 Corvette that had been stored in a garage for 27 years and is now being restored to "Stock". I don't know how long these rings had been on this vehicle (since they weren't "Stock"), but they do show road rash pitting and pimples consistent with chrome parts that have been on the front of such a vehicle for a number of years. In short, they are used. A perfectionist would probably rechrome them, but I should think they would be acceptable for a "Driver" car. They are authentic GM parts, not reproductions, and carry the GM Part # 3779239.

BAC Mono: Fancy a Drive?
Fri, 08 Apr 2011RS Academy grabs the first two BAC Monos Last month we reported on a new single-seat road car that offers more thrills than a garage full of hypercars for less than the cost of an M5 – the BAC Mono. The brothers Briggs -Â Briggs Automotive Company – have created the beautifully built, finished and specified Mono as the world’s only single-seat production car (well, the only one that’s actually made it in to production, anyway). Weighing no more than Kylie after a heavy diet, the Mono can scoot to 60mph in just 2.8 seconds before running out of steam somewhere around 170mph.
2015 Audi A3 to star in Super Bowl XLVIII ad
Wed, 18 Dec 2013The 2015 Audi A3 will be the star of Audi's 2014 Super Bowl ad, the seventh consecutive year that the automaker will be airing a commercial spot during the sporting event. You might have seen last year's "Prom" campaign by Audi (the video above) or the even more memorable "Vampire Party" from 2012, featuring the Audi S7. Another recent Audi Super Bowl ad that the Internet seemed to like was 2011's "Release the Hounds" spot for the Audi A8, mocking old luxury...at Mercedes-Benz's expense, we might add.
Vote: Guess this car review, episode 2
Fri, 30 May 2014Last week we brought you a few mystery car reviews and asked you to guess which vehicle was being reviewed. The response was great and we want to say congrats to @GoldGunsCars, @kokiousis, @buckar00 and @aol_wshutton, who all guessed correctly. The three reviews were of the Porsche Cayenne, Mercedes S55 AMG and Ford Focus SVT, all from 2004.
