Want to own one of the most popular Iconic Cars of All-Time. This Magnificient 55 Chevy is the Best of both Worlds. Professionally restored about 15 years ago. You can get in it and drive anywhere, completely rebuilt to be reliable and fun. Turns heads everywhere it goes. This 55, features a beautifully rebuilt 355, which includes a extremely rare block that came out of a 1970 copo camaro. It is what is called a "counter block" which is a rare un-numbered block as it was specifically built as a back up for the race cars. We have been offered thousands of dollars for just the block. It is attached to 350 TCI Transmission. It features a scat crank, RV cam, 10:1 compression, 650 edelbrock, 202 heads, wiend high rise intake and headman headers. Suspensions doesn't lack either, it has been completely upgraded including a nova unibody, upgraded suspension and front disk brakes ensures superb handling and drivability. The car also features 18" low profile wheels up front and 20" in the back. The car also has line lock to do some massive burnouts for friends. The interior features front and rear del-ray inspired bench seats. Upgraded radio with new 6x9 speakers. However speedo does need to be hooked up. All other gauges and electronics work beautifully. The Paint and Body on this car is beautiful, even tho the car was restored 15 years ago, it was done right and still shines like new! This 1955 is 1 of only 11,000 150 cars that were built in 1955. With less and less of these being available prices seem to continue to rise. Not only aap great car to drive and show, but a great investment for years to come. |

Steve McQueen's last movie car, now Pawn Stars-owned, up for auction [w/video]
Sun, 03 Feb 2013The last car Steve McQueen ever drove in a movie is officially up for auction. The 1951 Chevrolet Styline DeLuxe Convertible you see above is now owned by none other than Rick Harrison of Pawn Stars fame, but once ferried McQueen around the set of his last film, 1980's The Hunter. That flick saw the Bullit star play a bumbling bounty hunter and didn't exactly set the box office on fire. McQueen bought the car after production wrapped, and four years later it sold at his estate sale at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas.
Flash forward to 2003, and the convertible received a full restoration back to near-stock specifications. Hagerty Insurance estimates the car to be worth around $45,000 without the significant providence. Given its ties to one of film's most popular gearheads, the old Chevrolet could fetch up to 10 times that when it goes under the gavel in Ft Luaderdale, Florida on March 22. You can head over to the Auctions America site for more information. You can also check out the trailer for The Hunter below.
OnStar to offer 90-day driving assessment, possible insurance discount
Wed, Jan 7 2015General Motors has announced a brace of new features for OnStar, two of which could help you save money assuming you're willing to sign over some (more) personal details. The first is a driving assessment program in which OnStar takes note of certain driving parameters for 90 days, then provides the driver feedback on their driving, both individually and when compared to other drivers in the program, as well as driving tips. Think of it as OnStar's ICE version of the Nissan Leaf's CARWING feature that compares how efficient your electric driving is compared to other BEV drivers. In this case, though, certain drivers will have the chance to share their assessment with Progressive Insurance, and if the numbers are right they might get a "driving-based" discount from the insurance company. The assessment program is voluntary, and requires opting in. It will be available this summer on all new GM cars and some GM vehicles back to 2013. In case this sounds like Big Brother, let's not forget that Big Brother is already here and moved in so long ago that he's a member of the Kiwanis club and is hosting neighborhood block parties. Progressive already has a million enrollees in a program called Snapshot that tracks OBD II data to offer usage-based insurance to provide annual pricing based on how much you drive your car, with discounts of up to 30 percent. The OnStar effort is just another way to do that. The second feature is proximity offers through AtYourService, which notifies drivers to deals and information on their driving route and provides coupons from RetailMeNot and Entertainment Book. Beyond that, a deal with Priceline will let OnStar agents book hotels for you starting this year, there's a tie-in with Dunkin' Donuts, too, but we're fuzzy on those benefits, and third new feature lets Chevrolet owners know when certain parts need replacing.

So, how do you actually pronounce that automaker's name?
Thu, Jan 21 2016You probably have that friend who always says Porsche wrong, or maybe it's someone who keeps reminding you it's actually two syllables. Whichever side of the pronunciation debate you fall on, you'll find someone to root for in the video above. And before you ask, this was all the video team's idea. So don't get mad at me for being the voice of reason. BMW Chevrolet Hyundai Nissan Rolls-Royce Videos Original Video nissan qashqai
