Up for Sale again, because buyer didn't have the money to purchase the car.

This is a custom Lead Sled that has been featured in several Hot Rod Mags, and Ratrod car shows. To start, it has a 194 straight 6, and the mounts have been modified to drop in a 350 if so desired. She runs and drives great, Just had a ring Job done on the car, so you are guaranteed to be able to hop in and go.

It has a rebuilt two speed powerglide transmission. The Driveshaft and rear-end were modified to open drive, which will make replacement parts more available and the drivability way more reliable. I reconditioned the "Original Interior" because its "original", and in damn fair shape for its age. The only tear are near rear window and can be covered with a serape as I do, the seat cover is on the front so I did not get it dirty while working on it, no tears in it, just usual wear for Original Mohair.

She has been Old School Lowered since 1968 and not for the faint at heart either. The ride height can be adjusted with a jack and spacers or different size springs, takes 15 minutes, the rear end was lowered with blocks and can be also adjusted/changed in less than an hour. This ride is a real cruiser if you are not down for driving a bad ass lowered car, or don’t know how to turn a wrench every once in awhile, then this Sled is not for you. Its Old School Original low, Ratrod cool, and rides exactly how cool old lowered cars were meant to. I swear once you ride in her, you’ll feel Like Cheech is next to you and understand the true meaning of Low rider.

The Windshield and rear glass are in great shape, the side windows on the other hand do have some cracks, and are 65 ech for three, those are the easiest to replace, but I ride with windows down so I left them. Not much going on in the truck just a trunk, but pans are good no rust.

This is a cool old car but it's not your dad's new vette, it's your Grandpa's favorite old toy. This is a great little car to cruise around in or to the bar and does she ever grab the attention, but mostly because this girl is smooth as melted ice-cream and twice as sweet. If anyone has any questions feel free to shoot an email. Thanks and I hope she can bring you as much fun as she has me…

I do have her for sale locally as well, so I reserve the right to pull her if I get an offer I just can’t refuse. I have set a low reserve for this car, so please if you do not have the money do not bid, and no I will not take payments or finance, so don't outbid everyone and then try and blackmail me into a deal, because I will report you and relist it!

Thanks to all of you honest bidders for looking. She is going to highest bid or best offer, which ever comes first.

Key Words: Chevy, Old School, Lead Sled, Rat Rod, Kustom, Custom, Lowered, Bel Air

The frame was boxed and modified for new motor mounts, so a 350 or BBC could be dropped in with no hassles

It has been converted to a 12V system
The Drivetrain has been modified to an "open system" which means it now has U-Joints for ease of access
The motor was gone through a few months ago when a ring job was done on it
It has straight exhaust
The rear end was lowered with blocks, so height can be modified with ease
Front Suspension can be changed in minutes using a jack and spacers, spring exchanges etc...
Old School style lowered so height and ride can be changed using a wrench and a jack,
Paint was touched up where needed, to keep the Old School feel, this truly is an Original Lowrider / RatRod like it was in 1960's
The Reason it is for sale again is last bidder only had half the money and tried to guilt me into selling to him cheaper !!!

All I can add to this is you pump the gas once hold half way to floor, turn the key and she will start every time! Can be a daily driver or weekend cruiser !!!

I guarantee there are no major issues or rust on this ride !!!!!

Stolen '57 Chevy Returned To Owner After 30 Years

Fri, Feb 21 2014

Three decades after it was stolen, a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air has been returned to a Northern California man - in better shape than when he originally owned it. The Santa Rosa Press Democrat reports Ian "Skip" Wilson was shocked to get a call from the California Highway Patrol informing him that his long-lost Chevy was taken off an Australia-bound cargo ship. The 65-year-old says the car has had a lot of work done on it since it disappeared from his Lake County home in 1984. It was returned with a monogrammed interior, 17-inch racing wheels, rack-and-pinion steering and a 350-horsepower V-8 engine. The retired mechanic says the two-door was in sorry shape when he bought it for $375 in 1975 with plans for fixing it up.

GM recalling 686k Lambda-platform models for hatch repair

Fri, Jul 10 2015

General Motors is recalling 686,287 units of its Lambda platform crossovers. On models equipped with a power rear hatch the system can potentially fail. This campaign includes the 2008-2012 Buick Enclave, 2009-2012 Chevrolet Traverse, 2007-2012 GMC Acadia, and 2007-2010 Saturn Outlook. According to GM's documents to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (as a PDF), dirt can get into a portion of the strut that holds up the hatch and cause the part to prematurely fail. There's a redundancy in place called the Prop Rod Recovery system that's designed to shut the liftgate if there's a malfunction. However, if the breakdown happens too quickly after the hatch is opened the prop rod might not work the way it's supposed to. If someone were in the way of the falling liftgate, they could be hurt. For the repair, dealers will update the software for the power liftgate actuator motor control unit to prevent the hatch from closing so quickly. They'll also check the operation of the system afterward.

The affected vehicles, equipped with the power liftgate option, have gas struts that hold the power liftgate up when open. These struts may prematurely wear and the open liftgate may suddenly fall. CONSEQUENCE: If the open liftgate unexpectedly falls, it may strike a person, increasing their risk of injury. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will update the software for the power liftgate actuator motor control unit so that the motor will prevent the rapid closing of the lift gate, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule.

Next-gen Chevy Volt will get 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine

Tue, Oct 28 2014

As General Motors gets ready to unveil the new Chevy Volt at the Detroit Auto Show in January, it's starting to reveal a few more details about the updated plug-in hybrid. Today should be fruitful on that front, thanks to an event GM is hosting today that focuses on the new Volt, and we've just had the first bit of new: a bigger engine is coming. Since the beginning, the Volt has used a 1.4-liter, four-cylinder engine as a range extender when the battery runs dry. The second-generation model will instead get a slightly larger 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine that will be built in Flint, MI. That's a step up from the various engines that have been a part of the 2016 Volt's rumored mills, everything from a 1.0-liter or 1.2-liter three-cylinder to a 2.0-liter turbo. The confirmation about the new 1.5-liter powerplant was found in Automotive News, where we also heard again that GM is going to start building the new Volt's electric drive unit in Detroit, moving production up from Mexico. We will have more information on the 2016 Chevy Volt later today.
