 I am offering my 1951 Chevy Styleline Deluxe. (similar to Belair) 4 door. Starts & Drives and is in really good condition with almost all of the original parts. 

I accepted this vehicle as payment for another transaction and I understand that I am the 2nd owner... I have the original paperwork from it's purchase in 1951 & according to the paperwork it was last licensed in 1976. I was told that the original owner kept it all these years & started a restoration on it 30 years ago, but he took ill in the middle & it sat in storage for a long time.

The paint- Silver & White looks to have been done in the beginning of the restoration & the car was not fully re-assembled after paint, but it must have sat out in the sun for a period as the paint is fading... It looks great from 20' away but could really use a new paint job, no dents or dings or rust...
The interior is all new... but not 100% finished.
All the chrome was removed and sent out to be re-chromed and most of the parts made it back & are installed on the car... *note in the pictures some of the chrome trim is missing including the belt line & rock guards.

The dash trim & interior gauges are there and installed- but none of the wiring is connected.

When got the car It had been in storage for many years... I replaced the battery & fuel tank , plugs etc. & rebuilt the carb. It starts and drives.- original engine etc.

car is ready for parades & car shows as is... but a bit of interior work & fresh paint and some trim pieces before it would win any awards.

if you search N.A.D.A. classic cars this car comes up with a high value of $10,850... average of $6,525... I would say this car is in much better than average condition. and with a bit of work will easily be the the high end of this value. I'm into it just over $5,500, & need to make space. 

Vehicle is available for Pickup in Ogden, UT...   or I will help load....   If you haven't had a vehicle shipped before you can get a shipping quote here/on ebay--- or you can usually find it for a couple hundred less if you search the web... I have purchased a couple cars within 1,000 miles and paid between $400-$600... I suspect to ship this car anywhere in the west would be similar... shipping to the east coast would be more of course. 

Purchase of this vehicle requires $500 payment with buy it now- or with in 24 hours of winning bid & Payment in full via check, credit card, paypal within 5 days.

2016 Lamborghini Huracan at the Horse Thief Mile | AutoblogVR

Tue, Sep 13 2016

AutoblogVR returns to the Horse Thief Mile in the Mojave Desert to put the Lamborghini Huracan to the test. It's everything we want a modern supercar to be: Powerful, striking in appearance, and a riot to drive. But does it live up to Lamborghini's unique performance heritage? Senior Editor Greg Migliore reviews the Huracan on Horse Thief's unyielding curves and elevation changes to find out. Meanwhile, Autoblog Editor-in-Chief Mike Austin reviews a different kind of performance car – the Chevy SS at the IndyCar circuit on Detroit's Belle Isle. He's ably assisted by ace driver Simon Pagenaud. You must watch his hot lap! The SS is old-school V8 American muscle wrapped in Australian design and engineering. This AutoblogVR segment also launches on the app Sept. 13, and the teaser follows the Huracan preview above. Each week, new episodes will launch on the AutoblogVR App. We'll preview them here on Autoblog, but for the full immersive experience, head over to the app, which you can download for free from the App store and Google Play. Be sure to try it with a cardboard viewer, too!

Junkyard Gem: 1986 Chevrolet Sprint Plus

Fri, Jun 16 2023

General Motors sold second- and third-generation Suzuki Cultuses with Geo or Chevrolet Metro badging in the United States from 1989 through 2001 model years, and we've all seen plenty of those cars on the street over the years. The first-generation Cultus was sold here as well, with Chevrolet Sprint badges, and I've found a rare example of the Sprint five-door hatchback in a Northern California car graveyard. The Chevy Sprint first appeared on the West Coast as a 1985 model, then became available everywhere in the United States for the 1986 through 1988 model years (in Canada, it was sold as the Pontiac Firefly). It was available here as a hatchback with three or five doors; for 1986 only, the five-door was badged as the Sprint Plus. Soon enough, The General would be selling many more Asian-built cars with Detroit badges here. Isuzu I-Marks were sold as Chevrolet/Geo Spectrums starting in the 1986 model year, while Daewoo provided the Pontiac LeMans two years later. Under the hood, a 1.0-liter three-cylinder rated at 48 horsepower. The five-door Sprint cost $5,580 in 1986, which was $200 more than the three-door (those prices would be $15,445 and $14,891 in 2023 dollars). I've documented seven discarded Sprints prior to this one (including an extremely rare Turbo Sprint), and all of them were three-doors; we can assume that price was the most important factor for Sprint buyers. Gasoline prices were crashing hard during the middle 1980s, but memories of gas lines and odd-even-day fuel rationing from 1979 remained strong. What cars competed with the '86 Sprint on sticker price? Well, there was no way to undercut the hilariously affordable (and terrible) Yugo GV, which cost $3,990. The much bigger (but still pretty bad) Hyundai Excel listed at $4,995, while Toyota would sell you a sturdy (but zero-fun) Tercel starting at $5,448. Even the wretched Chevy Chevette — yes, it was still available in 1986 — cost $5,645. The original buyer of this car was willing to shell out an extra $395 to get an automatic instead of the base five-speed manual. That's about $1,093 in today's money. This car must have been slow. By the end, the doors were held shut with duct tape, but it still stayed alive until age 37. 53 miles per gallon on the highway! It does everything. The camels of the highway.

Mysterious white powder discovered at GM Orion Assembly

Fri, Sep 2 2016

Workers at General Motors Orion Assembly Plant in Orion Township, MI uncovered a mysterious white powder in two different parts of the factory earlier this week, raising concerns about worker safety. "We can confirm that an unknown substance (white powder) was found on the floor outside of Gate 6 at Orion Assembly on Monday, August 29. On Tuesday, August 30, we had a second report of a bottle containing a similar substance found inside the plant," GM spokesperson Dayna Hart told The Oakland Press via email. GM stressed that incident didn't disrupt operations at the plant, and that the company was taking steps to ensure the safety of the sprawling factory's workers. That did include, an anonymous worker told The Oakland Press, closing off parts of the factory for two full days, as drug-sniffing dogs and crews in haz-mat suits descended on the area. "A sample of the substance has been sent to a laboratory for identification and results are expected later this week," Hart said. "All findings and actions have been shared with our employees." Orion Assembly currently builds the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, and will eventually be responsible for production of the new, all-electric Chevy Bolt early next year. Related Video:
