Wishing You a Joyous Fourth of July!
July 4, 2024As we gather to celebrate the Fourth of July, we reflect on the spirit of independence and the values that unite us as a nation. This day commemorates the adoption of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, marking the birth of the United States of America.
Whether you’re planning a backyard barbecue, enjoying a fireworks display, going to a car show, or simply spending time with loved ones, the Fourth of July is a time to appreciate the freedoms we cherish and the opportunities our country provides. It’s a day filled with patriotic pride, festive activities, and, of course, plenty of red, white, and blue.
Let’s take a moment to honor those who have fought for our freedoms and continue to serve our country. Their dedication and sacrifice ensure that we can celebrate this day with joy and gratitude.
From all of us, we wish you a safe, happy, and memorable Fourth of July. Enjoy the festivities, cherish the moments with family and friends, and take pride in the enduring spirit of our great nation.
Happy Independence Day!

Long Beach Red w/Jet Black Interior 376/757hp Supercharged V8
8-Speed Paddle-Shift AutomaticHave your heart set on a C7 Z06 Convertible but want something with a bit more flair? Consider the Callaway SC 757. As enthusiasts might recall, Reeves Callaway introduced the RPO B2K Callaway Twin-Turbo Corvette back in 1987. These limited-edition marvels were crafted in Reeves’ shop in Old Lyme, CT, and the legacy continues to this day. You can still order a Callaway Corvette through your local Chevrolet dealer, just like the previous owner of this Z06 Convertible did.
This particular Z06 was ordered new from Len Stoller Chevrolet-Cadillac in Owings Mills, MD, and sent to Callaway in Old Lyme for its SC757 transformation. The car came loaded from Bowling Green with a plethora of options, including:
– 3LZ Premium Equipment Group: Memory Package, power bolster and lumbar seat adjusters, Nappa leather bucket seats, parcel net, power heated outside mirrors with driver-side auto dimming, auto inside rearview mirror, satellite radio (with subscription), suede microfiber-wrapped upper trim package, custom leather-wrapped instrument panel and doors, heated and ventilated seats, universal home remote, premium audio with surround, performance data and video recorder with NAV, advanced theft deterrent system, and front curb-view cameras.
– Z07 Ultimate Performance Package: Brembo ceramic brakes, PS Cup performance tires, and Z07 suspension.
– Other features: Visible carbon fiber ground effects package, Competition Sport seats, visible carbon fiber hood insert, 8-speed paddle-shift automatic transaxle, remote vehicle start, Z06 black aluminum wheels with yellow stripe, carbon fiber interior package, Long Beach Red Metallic Tintcoat, custom yellow brake calipers, custom outdoor car cover, red seatbelts, custom leather with yellow stitching, carbon fiber wheel center caps with crossed flag logo, battery protection package, chrome badge package, carbon flash painted rearview mirrors, and rear fascia protector.
The Callaway transformation added:
– Callaway GenThree TVS2300 Supercharger
– Callaway TripleCooled Intercooler System
– Callaway High Flow Intake System
– Callaway Carbon Engine Covers with SC757 Emblems
– Callaway Supercharger Surround Hood Trim Ring
– Callaway Door Sill Panels with exterior and interior badging
– Callaway Underhood Build Plaque with V.I.N.
– Callaway Key Fobs and Authenticity Documentation Package
The result is a 757 hp, 777 lb-ft torque beast with nearly every option imaginable.

Polo White w/Red Interior, 265/195hp V8, Powerglide
After being in production for two years, Corvette’s future was in serious doubt. The ’54 model year had not been the success that Chevrolet had been hoping for. And there was even talk of the Corvette being discontinued. But all that changed in ’55, when the OHV V8 was introduced in American passenger cars! Fortunately, that engine made its way under the hood of 693 Corvette Roadsters in ’55. Marking a major turning point in Corvette history! And credited with saving Corvette from the dustbin of history.
The Polo White example presented here had undergone a complete, frame-off restoration in the ’80’s. It then went into a private collection, where it resided until the present owner acquired it, about three years ago. It’s a great looing, running and driving ’55!
