You are viewing a 1955 Chevy Bel Air 2 door sedan finished in Blue Metallic and India Ivory. This car is being offered at no reserve! The opening amount is the least I would take for her. If you're the only one bidding you might get one heck of a deal. I paid more than this and have put more $$ into her than the starting price by far. She has a straight body with nice paint set off with the Bel Air trim. Underneath she is solid. The chrome is in nice shape and looks to have been redone prior to my ownership. 15 inch Cragar wheels wrapped in B.F. Goodrich rubber with plenty of tread left. This '55 has a small block Chevy 350 tuned with new plugs and wires. The engine has been dressed up with an Edelbrock intake, carburetor, valve covers, and air cleaner for a little flash under the hood. The engine is back by a B&M shifted TH350 transmission to a strong GM 12 Bolt Rear End. The car has disc brakes up front with drum brakes in the rear. This car has the nice rumble with the Flowmaster exhaust. She sounds mean traveling down the road. Heads will definitely be turning when you're cruising down the road. Be ready anytime you pull in to get gas people are going to be walking up wanting to look and ask all kinds of questions about her. This car is definitely a magnet. The interior is nice with the original touches, but has some upgrades as well. There's an added tilt column. As you can see there's aftermarket A/C that runs off of R134 to keep you cool for the summer cruising. The stock instrument panel and radio are still in place. The speedo and fuel gauge are inop. I have always used a GPS for my speedo. It has an Alpine stereo CD player under the dash with a USB connection for your MP3/Ipod to connect to. This is just a nice turn key '55 ready for you to cruise around this summer. Many upgrades have already been done. It needs nothing as it sits now or you could continue to upgrade if you want. Feel free to ask any questions and I will try to get back to you as soon as possible. The mileage is reading at 23,503, but I am not certain of the actual mileage considering the age of the car. I really hate to sell the car, but I could use the money for an upcoming home purchase. I still owe a few thousand to have the loan I took out to buy the car paid off (bought 2 Tri-5's within 2 months of each other and couldn't pay for this one in cash unfortunately). The winning bidder will receive the car, registration, and bill of sale at the time of purchase. The remaining balance on the loan will be paid off immediately upon receipt of funds for the car. As soon as the title is received, I will sign it over and overnight it via USPS to the winning bidder.
The winning bidder must make contact within 48 hours of auction close. A deposit of $500 will need to be made at the time of auction close to secure the car. I will work with the winning bidder if shipping is needed. The car will not be released until payment clears.

GM announces net 220 job increase as Trump visits Michigan
Wed, Mar 15 2017GM announced today that about 900 jobs would be added (or, importantly, retained) ahead of President Trump's arrival in Michigan, where he is expected to discuss his plan to roll back fuel economy standards. The timing of the announcement is almost certainly not coincidental, as appending it to a Trump visit gives it a higher profile and dovetails with the President's jobs agenda. It's less likely the decision itself was made for those reasons, but the free PR boost is a nice bonus. As for those 900 jobs themselves, they aren't all new jobs. The only net gain is approximately 220 jobs at the Romulus Powertrain Plant, which produces the 10-speed automatic transmission that's proliferating through the company's lineup. The 180 jobs at Flint Assembly and 500 jobs at Lansing Delta Township are retained jobs – that is to say, spots the company found for workers who would otherwise have been laid off. By the way, the Flint jobs will help with production of heavy-duty pickups, and the Lansing jobs are to produce the Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave. Finding jobs for manufacturing workers in the auto sector, whether new or retained, is admirable. No matter how GM couches it, the company has created or retained a total of 7,000 jobs this year, and its total reinvestment in US production is around $1 billion. But these decisions are business ones, not political ones – timing the announcements to make them seem inspired by economic policy, or the political situation, is simply smart PR.

GM learning from current Chevy Volt owners as it works on next-gen model
Tue, Sep 16 2014Details of the second-generation Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in hybrid are coming in at a trickle, and the latest is that the 2016 model-year Volt will be improved in all meaningful areas, including performance and all-electric range, says General Motors powertrain director Larry Nitz. 60 percent of Volt customers only charge using a standard 110 outlet. Nitz was speaking to Autoline After Hours about the current and future Volt. He said that GM has been tracking Volt driving habits and found that about two-thirds of the Volts' collective miles are driven in electric mode, and that 81 percent of all Volt trips were done in pure EV mode. Additionally, Volt drivers plug the car in 10 times each week, on average. Nitz also said 82 percent of the Volt's commuting miles are coming from the plug instead of the gas tank. Oh, and 60 percent of Volt customers only charge using a standard 110 outlet. Last month, GM released a teaser shot of the 2016 Volt (above) and said the car would make its worldwide debut at the 2015 North American International Auto Show next January. Earlier this year, the Volt was reported to be getting a new chassis for the upcoming version. The Volt could use a bit of new life. Through August, Volt sales were down 12 percent from a year earlier to 13,146 units, and sales plunged 25 percent alone. That compares unfavorably to the Nissan Leaf battery-electric vehicle, whose 2014 sales have jumped 34 percent to almost 19,000 units. You can see Nitz dish the goods in the video below (Volt comments start at around minute 15). You will also notice AutoblogGreen contributor Gary Witzenburg talk about his history with the EV1 and share his take on the Volt. This content is hosted by a third party.

LG Chem's troubled Chevy Volt battery plant hiring once again
Thu, Sep 25 2014The Michigan battery plant known for paying its workers to do nothing has turned things around and is now hiring more workers, specifically to do something. South Korea-based LG Chem, which runs the factory to supply the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in vehicle with its lithium-ion batteries, held a job fair recently to bring on 40 new employees in order to meet higher battery demand, according to WZZM, the ABC affiliate for Grand Rapids, MI. The LG Chem factory is in Holland, MI, about 30 miles west of Grand Rapids, and it made its first batteries last year. Prior to that, though, the factory gained notoriety after a US Department of Energy (DOE) probe found that workers there were getting paid to do, well, nothing. That's because demand for the battery packs was so low that it cost less for the plant to sit idle. The DOE was conducting the probe because of its financial grant to LG Chem. But that was then and today is today. LG Chem is looking to ramp up production in advance of the second-generation Volt. That 2016 model-year version is said to have a longer all-electric range and better performance and will ride on a new chassis, but few official details have surfaced. We will know more when we get our first look at the car at the Detroit Auto Show in January.
