1955 Chevrolet Bel Air 2 Door Post on 2040-cars

Here is my 1955 Chevy Bel Air 2 Door Post. I have been saving this car for a long while, because I was going to just have fun with it, but other circumstances has come up and now I need to sell it. The car has some issues of needing some body work over the rear wheel on the drivers side. It looks ok, but who ever done the body work before I got it, didn't do very well in my opinion. I do have the front and rear bumpers for it, but they will need chromed. I do not have the chrome for the Bel Air, only what is on the car. I have tried to show in the pictures just how good the car is. I looked for a running project car for a long time, and finally found this one. It has a New exhaust system including New Flow Masters, and it also has the motor and trans in the car. I am not really sure that it is a 327, but the man I bout the car from told me that that was what was in it. It is not running at this time. I'm sure it would need a complete tune up. The floors seam solid as seen in the pictures. I had the car running and driving about 6 or 7 months ago, then went through a divorce, and guess what, the car got parked. Now I'm having to sell it. The motor ran good, and drove good, I have had this car for several years, and hate to part with it, because they are SO hard to find in good restorable shape! You can see on the windshield it says "KEEP" and the reason for that was the divorce! The tires and wheels do not go with the 55 Chevy, because they came off of my 69 Chevelle, and I will need them to put back on the car. I have other tires and wheels to go on car for transportation. The car does not have any warranty, the winning buyer(bidder) is responsible for transportation of the car, at the end of the auction a $500 dollar deposit goes to my Pay Pal, all deposits are non refundable, I have the right to end the auction at any time, because I am advertising locally, tires and wheels do not go with the 55 Chevy, I do not have a title for the car, but can give a bill of sale. I had to put "clear" on the article, because of the format would not let me put anything else, if you have any questions, feel free to contact me, and I will answer as soon as possible. Thanks for looking, and Good luck Bidding!!! On Dec-06-13 at 11:19:12 PST, seller added the following information: I forgot to say that, as you can see in the pictures, the car needs full resto to make a really NICE car out of it, or just leave it like it is for the "hot Rod" look. Sold "as is" where it is, and the seats need to be bolted down. I feel sure that it had a bench seat in it at one time, and the man I got it from changed it and put the buckets in it. If I have created any problems, I apologize, but I wanted to add this, because I had forgotten to put it in, when I was doing the article. Thanks |

2016 Chevy Volt will have more EV range, bigger battery
Tue, Oct 28 2014Meet the new Volt, not the same as the old Volt. That appears to be the story when General Motors introduces the 2016 Chevy Volt at the Detroit Auto Show in January. Today we're getting some more details on the guts of the new plug-in hybrid, and it turns out they're going to be much improved from the current Volt, which first went on sale at the end of 2010. Sure, the first-gen Volt did get some improvements along the way (a slightly larger battery pack, lane departure warnings) but the new Volt – which will go on sale in the second half of 2015 – marks the first time GM has been able to return to the drawing board and really make the improvements that its customers want. That's how Larry Nitz, GM's executive director of vehicle electrification explained it to AutoblogGreen today when explaining the all-new Voltec extended range electric vehicle (EREV) powertrain. "In the Gen 2 is we gave the engine a little more power, a little more torque, a little more displacement, more capability." – Larry Nitz Nitz said that the new Volt will be better in almost every sense: a bigger battery, longer EV-only range, 20 percent better acceleration in the low speed range and higher overall efficiency. This is due, in part, to the Volt's two motors being able to both act as generators and power the car. As we noted this morning, the 2016 Volt will use a larger, 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine, a version of which is already used in the Chinese-market Cruze. Nitz said that this has a number of benefits, including more power and quieter operation. "Some people would say, why did you make [the first-gen engine] so big. I would say, why did you make it so small?" he said. "It works good, our customers love it, but the reality is that if you go a little bit off and use the car a little harder, you can get the engine to need to operate at a higher speed. In an EV, that's quite noticeable. So, what we did in the Gen 2 is we gave the engine a little more power, a little more torque, a little more displacement, more capability and what it has marginally enabled is not only is it more efficient but it's also quieter." Nitz wouldn't talk about how the new powertrain might affect the two other products that use the Volt's underpinnings – the Cadillac ELR and the Opel Ampera – but if you've got a quieter option, we assume that's something ELR drivers would enjoy. But that's a story for another day.
Why the Corvette's Performance Data Recorder can be illegal in some states
Fri, 26 Sep 2014The Performance Data Recorder with Valet Mode available on the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray seems like a fantastic tool for many owners. Whether they are taking 720p video while lapping the track in their new 'Vette, or just want to protect their purchase from inconsiderate joyriders, the system offers a lot of functionality in one package. However, one of the PDR's features might get buyers in trouble with the law, and it has nothing to do with recording some illicit high-speed driving on a favorite back road. The problem hinges on the various state laws concerning a person's right to privacy.
According to a letter posted by Jalopnik, Chevy dealers are asking 2015 Corvette owners not to use the Valet Mode portion of the PDR because it records audio in the cabin, in addition to performance specs. That's a problem because privacy laws vary from state to state with some requiring just one side's consent to tape sound and others requiring all parties to agree. According Jalopnik, 15 states mandate everyone's permission beforehand, but it's not clear whether these numbers are up to date. (Actually, the report varies, saying 13 states in some places and 15 in a list.)
According to the letter, Chevy is already working on a software update for the near future to rectify the issue. It's possible that simply adding a warning to drivers and the ability to turn off the audio recording function in Valet Mode might solve the problem. Obviously, this doesn't preclude Corvette drivers from using the performance aspect of the PDR, and owners are free tape lap after lap at the track.
GM execs fired over fraudulent India emissions testing
Mon, 29 Jul 2013General Motors hadn't had a recall in India since 1995. That changed when it was discovered that certain employees were playing tricks with local emissions testing in order to ensure passing grades for engines. More than ten GM Powertrain employees in India and the US have been let go over the ensuing emissions flap, including Sam Winegarden, VP of global engine engineering, a man who has been with the company since 1969, leading development of some marquee powerplants.
According to Automotive News, an internal investigation revealed that employees "violated testing procedures," sometimes swapping specially prepared low-emissions engines during testing regimes for the Chevrolet Tavera SUV equipped with the 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter engines. Employees were also manipulating weights in order to get vehicles placed into different emissions categories. The discovery has led to GM recall the 114,000 Taveras produced over an eight-year period and halting their production and sale.
The Economic Times of India reports that the issue is due to "a faulty component." GM has developed a solution to the issue, and once it is validated in testing and approved by the Indian authorities, the recalled vehicles will be fixed at dealers and production will resume.
