1955 Chevrolet Bel Air on 2040-cars
Valparaiso, Florida, United States
1955 Chevy Bel Air two door post. I bought this car about 20 years ago in Alabama with the hopes of fixing it up but I'm in the military and just haven't had the time. I've spent a lot of time and money on it over the years but as you can see, I've let it sit around too long this time and it needs attention by someone who has the time. Drivetrain: 383 stroker, 350 turbo and 3.23 10 bolt posi rear-end. Engine NOT running, will turnover and start but won't stay running - Rack and pinion power steering - Front disc brakes - Chrome tilt steering column. (starting to pit from sitting around) - Duel exhaust - 2" drop springs on the front, installed urethane bushings years ago - Griffin 4 core aluminum radiator Negatives: - Has 383 stroker that was professionally built about 15 years ago. I haven't driven this car in over 2 1/2 years so I'm NOT claiming it runs or drives(but sure it will with some work). I can say I've only put around 4-5 thousand miles on it. - Will need complete interior, what you see in pictures is what will be included - Will need body work, front floor pans(see pictures) . I stripped this car down to bare metal and used spray can primer to cover bare metal. I'm almost 100% sure that the quarters, floor, rocker panels and trunk are original. Left side front fender in in excellent condition, Hood is in good condition, right side front fender is in fair condition, right door is in poor condition(I pulled creases out but would probably re-skin), left rear quarter panel has rot in front of wheel well, right rear quarter panel is in good shape(a little bondo), trunk is in decent shape, a little rot on inside weld seem, trunk is decent, has rot in back half(see pictures), roof will need work right above drivers door(see picture) Positives: - All stainless is there and in really good shape, I removed it all 20 years ago and stored inside. - Bought pretty much all chrome and emblems brand new and it's all still in like new condition in boxes to include: At least $2,000 in chrome parts 10 piece triple chrome bumper 4 piece grill surround(top and bottom pieces got damp somehow so they're not in brand new condition but still very nice) Hood Bird Headlight bezels Parking light bezels Taillight bezels with solid red lens Bel Air scripts Door handles Wiper bezels Gold crests All window felts trunk seal I replace all the glass in the car with smoked tinted glass but a vandal busted the passenger side windows. Front/back windshield and driver side glass is in great shape. VIN: C 55N041181 Cowl Tag: Style 55-1011D Body N 5689 Trim 531 Paint 627 I'm sure I'm missing a lot of stuff so feel free to contact me for more information or pictures. |

Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo could only work in a video game [w/video]
Thu, Nov 20 2014There's something wondrous about the Vision Gran Turismo series of concepts that has let companies go wild with completely imaginary concepts for Gran Turismo. For Chevrolet's crack at the idea, it has taken a page out of its performance past with the Chaparral Can-Am racers of the '60s and '70s, with its designers having reinterpreted that period look for the future of motorsports as the Chaparral 2X. In real life, the 2X looks even better than in earlier photos. The design takes inspiration from someone in a flying suit with head down and arms outstretched, an influence you can really see that in the vehicle's shape. The driver lies facedown inside with the instruments projected onto a visor. Unfortunately, the powertrain here is a complete flight of fancy and works purely in the video game world. It imagines a laser propelled by lithium-ion batteries and an air-powered generation to make 900 horsepower. The 2X has a theoretical top speed of 240 miles per hour and hits 60 mph in a lightning-quick 1.5 seconds. Scroll down to see the concept on video with Chevrolet designers describing their inspiration and read the company's full announcement. It's also downloadable in Gran Turismo 6. Chevrolet to Show Chaparral Vision Gran Turismo Concept Boundary-pushing, Chevy-powered race cars changed motorsports design DETROIT – When racers Jim Hall and Hap Sharp founded Chaparral Cars in 1962, few could have guessed how they would shake up the conformities of the racing world – and fundamentally change it. Through pioneering applications of aerodynamics and aerospace technology, and a partnership with Chevrolet Research and Development, Chaparral Cars advanced the science of racing cars. It also triumphed on the track over well-established sports car companies from around the world, using Chevrolet horsepower. It was that spirit of innovation that inspired the Chevrolet Chaparral 2X VGT concept race car developed for the Vision Gran Turismo project, which celebrates the 15th anniversary of PlayStation® racing game Gran Turismo by inviting manufacturers to give fans a glimpse into the future of automotive design. It will debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show, Nov. 19, and gamers will be able race the Chaparral 2X VGT following the release of an online update for Gran Turismo 6 during the holiday season.
GM opens military discount to 21M veterans and their spouses
Thu, Apr 7 2016May marks the start of National Military Appreciation Month, and General Motors is getting into the spirit by expanding its military discount program to, well, just about everyone. That includes a total of 21 million military veterans and their spouses, along with the current slate of active duty, reserve, and National Guard members. The discount can slash thousands of dollars off the price of a new Buick, Chevrolet, or GMC vehicles, with Automotive News listing an $1,100 discount on the top gas-powered version of the Malibu, the Premiere. Those that want a bit more spice can get $1,700 off the price of a last-generation 2015 Camaro SS, while truck buyers will enjoy $3,000 off the Chevy Silverado All Star. That's just a start, though, since the military discount can be paired with other GM incentives. The discount doesn't apply to everything, though. Some are understandable – none of Cadillac's vehicles are included in the deal, nor is the Corvette Z06. You'll also be unable to apply the discount to a range of base-level trims, like the Chevy Cruze or Equinox L, the base Colorado, or the entry level GMC Acadia, Canyon, and Terrain. A full list is available at GM's dedicated military discount website. GM's expanded discount plan runs from today through May 31.
