1954 Chevrolet 210 Bel Air Deluxe Sedan Chevy Two-ten 235 Beautiful! No Reserve! on 2040-cars
Mentor, Ohio, United States
This is a NO RESERVE listing. 1954 Chevrolet 210 / Bel Air Deluxe Sedan Chevy Two-Ten 235 Beautiful! Straight out of the sock hops, drive-ins, American Graffiti, and Back to the Future comes this lovingly restored 1954 Chevrolet Two-Ten. It has a correct-era 235 cu in inline-6 with a 3-speed manual transmission on the column. This car is a beauty, a looker, and a stunner. The gorgeous cherry red paint and bright shiny chrome make this car gleam in the sunshine. Hopefully you can see that in the photos. Overall the paint is excellent. This is a professional-grade restoration-quality paint job done to a very high standard. The chrome is bright and shiny but does have some pitting here and there. The one exception is the wheels which are mirror-shiny and in perfect shape. The interior is nice as well. The dash has been repainted in the restoration and looks fantastic. The seats have been recovered, although with a non-original fabric. The original fabric remains beneath. The headliner is new and in spotless condition. The carpets have been replaced with all-weather carpeting. Mechanically this car is ready to cruise. I just installed a new set of spark plugs and wires and it fires up easily! I have taken it on several multi-hour trips recently and it is a true joy to drive. This classic is a one-car car show wherever you go. If you don't like people coming up and complementing the car and asking questions this car isn't for you. The motor does not smoke. It idles nicely and drives even better. The brakes are surprisingly good for a car of this vintage. I just had a wheel cylinder replaced. They are manual brakes so some adjustment in driving style is necessary. It shifts through the gears nicely and will cruise along at 60 all day long. The tires are nearly new. The exhaust is in good shape and even features some glass-packs. It has a nice throaty sound thats not too noisy. The ride is cushy and comfortable. Load this beauty up with some friends and take it out for ice cream. The underside is in very good shape. The frame is solid as heck. The negatives: 4 of the side windows have hairline cracks in them. I priced these out to between $35-$47 per window. They still keep the rain out and go up and down just fine. The paint, as nice as it is, does have some flaws there are a few scratches and dings and a few tiny bubbles. There are some small spots of missing clear that do not affect the overall shine. The original AM radio does not work. Big surprise I know. There is a modern radio/cd player that works just fine installed under the dash. The blower motor does not work, but the ram-air vents keep the air circulating. There is a small oil drip, probably coming from the oil pan gasket. The clutch does exhibit some very minor chattering. The title reads miles in excess of mechanical limits but is otherwise clear. I did some further research into the exact model of the car because the title says it is a Bel Air. It appears that in 1954 the difference between the 150, 210, and Bel Air was largely the exterior horizontal trim strip and accompanying badges. Since this car has had those deleted in the restoration process it makes little difference at this point. For the Chevy purists the build code is 1069w which should correspond to the two-ten. For the non-purists the title says Bel Air and go with that. Phone calls are preferred. Charlie (440) 339 5388 I cannot guarantee that I know about every single problem/imperfection that this car has. I have done my best to give you a good sense of the car, beyond that it is your responsibility to come look at the car for yourself. Please call me to make an appointment to see the car. Please also be aware that more imperfections can be found in person than from photos. Expect this. If you plan to drive the car a long distance away be advised that you do so at your own financial risk. Plan on having to spend some money on upgrades and maintenance. Overall please be realistic. This is an old car and we live in an imperfect world. |

Chevy to show redesigned Captiva in Geneva, will it come to US rental lots?
Wed, 27 Feb 2013Unless you're renting a car or driving through Orlando, Florida (the rental car capital of the US), you'll probably never see a Chevrolet Captiva - the rebadged, fleet-only version of the old Saturn Vue - on our roads, but this crossover is popular in many other parts of the world. As such, Chevrolet announced that the Captiva will be getting an update for 2013, which will be unveiled next week at the Geneva Motor Show.
Coming off a pretty extensive refresh in 2011, the 2013 model year will bring even more changes to the Captiva like LED taillights, new 18-inch wheels and revised fascias with a new grille and fog lights up front and inset chrome exhaust outlets at the rear. New interior features include heated rear seats, dual-zone climate control as well as available options on some of the upper trim levels such as leather seating and keyless entry and start. We have yet to hear back from Chevrolet as to whether or not the updated Captiva will be making its way to a rental lot near you, as the model is only available in the US to fleet buyers.
Alongside the updated Captiva, Chevy is also showing off its new Trax in Europe, where the subcompact crossover will go on sale this spring. GM's press release for these two Geneva-bound models is posted below.
Chevy rolls out Silverado HD High Country
Wed, 09 Apr 2014It's been a good week for heavy-duty truck buyers. First, Ram revealed the Black Package for its HD trucks, then it rolled out its new Power Wagon, and now Chevy's getting in on the action with its Silverado High Country HD. Okay, so it may not pack quite the attitude of Ram's latest 2500-series offerings, but the High Country HD will come as a welcome addition to the Chevy Trucks range to those looking to pull their horse, boat or other trailer without skimping on creature comforts.
Rolled out a little under a year ago, the High Country trim is Chevy's answer to the likes of the GMC Denali, Ford King Ranch and Ram Longhorn. It has until now only been offered on the light duty, 1500-series Silverado, but now extends to the 2500 and 3500-series HD models, as well.
So what sets a High Country pickup apart from lesser Chevy trucks? You'll be able to pick it out based on its chrome horizontal grille, body-color bumpers, 6-inch tubular side steps, 20-inch chrome wheels (18-inch on the 3500 and 17-inch on the dualie) and, of course, plenty of special badging. But it's inside where the High Country makes its mark, with a cabin decked out in saddle brown perforated leather, seats that are both heated and cooled, eight-inch touchscreen with full MyLink suite, Bose audio and park assist functions front and rear to keep those color-keyed bumpers looking fresh. (Though Chevy hasn't yet showed us the interior of the HD model, it'll presumably look mostly the same as the cab in the 1500 High Country in the gallery below.)
A car writer's year in new vehicles [w/video]
Thu, Dec 18 2014Christmas is only a week away. The New Year is just around the corner. As 2014 draws to a close, I'm not the only one taking stock of the year that's we're almost shut of. Depending on who you are or what you do, the end of the year can bring to mind tax bills, school semesters or scheduling dental appointments. For me, for the last eight or nine years, at least a small part of this transitory time is occupied with recalling the cars I've driven over the preceding 12 months. Since I started writing about and reviewing cars in 2006, I've done an uneven job of tracking every vehicle I've been in, each year. Last year I made a resolution to be better about it, and the result is a spreadsheet with model names, dates, notes and some basic facts and figures. Armed with this basic data and a yen for year-end stories, I figured it would be interesting to parse the figures and quantify my year in cars in a way I'd never done before. The results are, well, they're a little bizarre, honestly. And I think they'll affect how I approach this gig in 2015. {C} My tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015 it'll be as high as 73. Let me give you a tiny bit of background about how automotive journalists typically get cars to test. There are basically two pools of vehicles I drive on a regular basis: media fleet vehicles and those available on "first drive" programs. The latter group is pretty self-explanatory. Journalists are gathered in one location (sometimes local, sometimes far-flung) with a new model(s), there's usually a day of driving, then we report back to you with our impressions. Media fleet vehicles are different. These are distributed to publications and individual journalists far and wide, and the test period goes from a few days to a week or more. Whereas first drives almost always result in a piece of review content, fleet loans only sometimes do. Other times they serve to give context about brands, segments, technology and the like, to editors and writers. So, adding up the loans I've had out of the press fleet and things I've driven at events, my tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015, it'll be as high as 73. At one of the buff books like Car and Driver or Motor Trend, reviewers might rotate through five cars a week, or more. I know that number sounds high, but as best I can tell, it's pretty average for the full-time professionals in this business.
