 You are looking at my 1956 Chevrolet Nomad that I started on a few years ago. Due to an accident and a loss of income I am forced to sell my car that I dearly love but wasn't able to finish. This is an all original built car, the way they built them back then. I have about a zillion dollars invested in my car, you guys that build them know what I mean. This will give someone a chance to get a good car at a good price. The car is about 90% complete in the project stage, really all it needs to be complete is the interior kit and installation, The glass put in it, which I have it all except the rear liftgate glass and the exterior stainless, which I have it all. I want to make a quick comment here on the exterior stainless. I had it all professionally restored, that alone was a $2500.00 project, and it looks beautiful. I have it all rapped up packed in a box so it won't get scratched. I have some of the chrome re-plated and some still needs done. I have the headliner bows done and some other pieces as well. As you can see the rear bumpers are on the car and I have the front bumpers ready to put on, they are done as well. Starting from the ground up, everything on the drive-train is new, brake lines, fuel lines, all the wheel seals, breaks, break drums, tie rods, coil springs gas tank, fuel pump, ect. The engine is the original 265 V-8 with the Powerglide transmission. I took the engine and had it COMPLETELY rebuilt, had the block bored. All new rings, bearings, rods, cam, the works and the heads were rebuilt as well. Basically everything under the hood is new. The engine has new a 4-Bar. carb with the original power steering. The transmission is the original 2 speed Powerglide. When I was in the engine/transmission stage of the project, I wanted to be sure the transmission was a good one so I put it in without doing anything to it. After this stage was complete I took it for a test drive and everything worked as it should,(shifted smooth). As many of you know these Powerglides has a history of leaking and mine is no different, so it needs taken out and new seals needs installed in it, other than that the transmission is fine.I have the front and back seats for the car, the back seat is in GREAT shape, the front seat is rebuild-able. The car has had all new wiring harnesses put in and everything works as it should right down to the clock.Basically everything was new when the car was put together. I can't even begin to list everything because I would surely leave something out. You may have noticed in the photos, the hood was not all the way down, the reason for this is the hood hinges I had on it had something wrong with them, they just didn't work properly so I bought new ones and put them on with new springs as well so it needs some adjustments made that was never done. In the rear cargo area is a border of stainless that goes around the floor area, I have some of these pieces but not all of them. They have not been restored. Once I had all of them I was going to have them restored as well but never got around to that part yet. The metal trim that goes around the top of the cargo area in the back has all been painted and ready to install once the interior has been installed. During the assembly of the car there are a couple places the paint chipped when tightening the of that particular piece, these are small places but they are there and there is a very, very small dent, about the size of a BB in the drivers door, too small to show up in a photo and I'm sure it can be fixed fairly easily if someone knew what they were doing. I am trying to mention every little detail so there will be no surprises if someone were to look at the car. I am sure I've left something out but I've described my car the best I could. If there are any questions about it, and I'm sure there will be, don't hesitate to ask. This will make someone a nice car once it's completed and it won't take too much to do that. Any shipping arrangements will be the responsibility of the buyer although I can assist. A $500.00 deposit is required within 24 hours of auction closing. I reserve the right to end this auction early due to the car is for sale locally. Thank you for looking!

Consumer Reports declares most and least loved cars [w/video]

Wed, Dec 3 2014

Consumer Reports is crunching the numbers from its annual owner-satisfaction survey, and part of that process is finding out how attached drivers are to their cars. CR simply asks readers of models up to three years old if they would buy the same vehicle again in light of their entire ownership experience, and tallies the results. After looking at the responses for about 350,000 vehicles, it turns out that people really love a certain California-built, electrically powered luxury sedan. That's right, this year's the overall winner was the Tesla Model S with a whopping 98 percent of owners saying they would purchase another one (the Model S also won this award last year, with 99 percent satisfaction). The Chevrolet Corvette Stingray came in a close second with 95 percent of drivers hoping to park another one in their garage. A few models weren't quite so favored, though. The Nissan Versa Sedan was the least loved model among its owners; a mere 42 percent said that they would purchase another. The aging Jeep Compass didn't do much better, with just 43 percent of drivers willing to buy the softroader again. On average, about 70 percent of owners say they would buy their car again, and only four cars ranked below 50 percent in CR's findings. Check out the video above to see some of the winners and losers in a few of CR's categories. If you're a subscriber, you can check out the full list on its website.

Watch a 2015 Corvette Z06 run the quarter in 11.7 seconds

Sun, Dec 28 2014

We're not writing about this because it's an amazing run, we're writing about it because it appears to be the first run. Someone took a 2015 Corvette Z06 to Royal Purple Raceway in Baytown, Texas and blasted it down through the quarter mile. It's still wearing the dealer number in wax pen on the windshield and dealer plates, so this example is fresh from the mold. It's also a seven-speed manual. General Motors said the row-your-own Z06 can do the 'strip in 11.2 seconds, and they undoubtedly had a professional driver and more than one run to set that time. To have Just Some Guy show up at the raceway and do an 11.7 at 120.54 mph on his first run means we expect good things to come as Z06s get delivered to their owners. Check out the run in the video.

Auto Show Notebook: Legendary Continental name inspired Lincoln's designers

Thu, Apr 2 2015

What's in a name? A lot for the Continental concept, and it gave Lincoln designers a sense of purpose as they styled the brand's upcoming flagship sedan. "The moment that we told them, it was amazing," Lincoln president Kumar Galhotra said. "They totally got it." "It" is cutting-edge technology wrapped in stately, large-sedan design. It's a nod to Lincoln's storied past, but a signpost for where the brand is heading. Though the Continental name dates to the late 1930s, Lincoln designers avoided making the concept overtly retro. "You can't let it pull yourself back too far in history, but you've got to design a car that lives up to the name," Galhotra said. Speaking to Autoblog on the floor of the New York Auto Show where the Continental formally debuted Wednesday, the Lincoln president reiterated that the car is on track to launch in 2016. It will compete against the Audi A6, Lexus GS, BMW 5 Series and other large luxury sedans. After its debut, the concept in New York will fly to China – another critical market for Lincoln – for display there. It will be replaced in New York by a prototype without an interior. The Continental is the latest high profile play by Lincoln to raise its image with consumers, who have either ignored or forgotten about it amid steep competition in the luxury sector from German and Japanese brands and a potentially resilient Cadillac. Lincoln sales are essentially flat compared with 2014 through the first quarter of this year, with total volume of 21,478 units. The middling start to 2015 comes on the heels of nearly 16-percent sales growth last year spurred by the launch of the MKC and the prominent signing of Matthew McConaughey to star in Lincoln advertisements. Other News, Notes & Quotes Speaking of names, Chevrolet did its homework before deciding to proceed with "Malibu" for its new generation of midsize cars. "We went out and researched it," said Alan Batey, president of General Motors North America. "People actually like the name 'Malibu,'" he said. Admittedly, the current Malibu has struggled in the marketplace against entrenched competitors, Batey said, but he's optimistic its awareness and historical value are assets to the dramatically redesigned sedan."The name's strong," he said. Meanwhile, in other Chevy news, the brand kicked off a new marketing campaign, "Real People, Not Actors" Wednesday. It will show consumers interacting with Chevys and their spontaneous reactions to the vehicles.
