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.

Here's how Detroit is selling more luxury vehicles than Germany and Japan
Sun, Dec 14 2014Now there's an attention-grabbing headline, eh? Although the answer to the riddle - pickup trucks and SUVs - might be somehow deflating, the numbers involved deserve a going over. According to TrueCar's figures (click on the table to enlarge), six of the year's ten best-selling vehicles in the US that sell for a transaction price above $50,000 are body-on-frame, and the Mercedes-Benz E-Class is the only foreigner to crack the top five. Every enthusiast knows that pickup trucks are 'Murica's most popular vehicle by a colossal margin, and there have been plenty of reports about the popularity of luxuriously appointed trucks and SUVs, but compare these figures from TrueCar: 70 percent of Chevrolet Tahoe sales have a transaction price above $50K, and The Bowtie is expected to make $3.9 billion in revenue on 66,945 predicted high-dollar sales; 95.1 percent of E-Class sales break $50K, so the German company will make $4.0 billion on 67,006 predicted sales in that pricing sphere. It's about the only time you'll see the Tahoe ranked right next to Mercedes' bread-and-butter sedan. Ram is ahead of those two with $4.2B coming from $50K-plus sales. The Ford F-Series does almost as much revenue as the next three combined, with an expected $10.8 billion coming from sales of trucks over $50K - more than a quarter of the model's total sales, when a base F-150 can be had for about $26,000. Yes, the Germans make a lot more money on fewer sales, but considering the comparison, the bottom line isn't too troubled by such facts. Weighing like-for-like, the full-size Ford walks it in every category; elsewhere, the Chevrolet Silverado outsells the Ram, but the Ram outsells the Chevy by 6.7 percent above $50K. And for all the flak GMC takes over swapping out grilles, the Sierra also outsells the Chevy in the well-appointed segment, 16.1 percent of sales versus 11 percent – the Professional Grade brand is a huge profit center for The General. You'll find more info in the TrueCar press release below. TrueCar finds pickup trucks far outsell premium brands among top 10 vehicles over $50,000 Ford F-Series pickup sales over $50,000 surpass combined BMW 3, 5, 7 Series luxury car sales SANTA MONICA, Calif. (December 10, 2014) - TrueCar, Inc., the negotiation-free car buying and selling platform, finds mainstream pickup trucks and sport-utility vehicles dominate U.S.
Nissan Leaf sets another monthly sales record, Chevy Volt remains steady
Mon, Nov 3 2014Here we go again. Another month in the books and another month of record sales by the Nissan Leaf in the US. For October, the world's best-selling pure EV sold 2,589 units, which is 29.3 percent more than October 2013. That makes it 20 times in a row that Nissan can say that last month sales were better than the same month a year before. All told, Nissan has sold 24,411 Leafs in the US this year, a new record, reflecting an overall Leaf sales rate that is up 35 percent, year-to-date. Nissan isn't stopping, either. A new TV ad, one that, "encourages consumers to kick gas" by saving money on fuel will start airing today in major markets, according to Toby Perry, director of Nissan's EV marketing. You can watch it below. As for the Chevy Volt, things remained steady last month in the face of a new model that's coming in the second half of 2015. Chevy sold 1,439 Volts last month, which is about the same as September (1,394) but down 28.8 percent from the October 2013 despite GM having its best overall US October sales this year since 2007. So far, 2014 Volt year-to-date sales are down 14.9 percent through the end of October compared to 2013. And that wraps up the flash report on monthly sales for these two long-standing plug-in vehicles in the US market. As always, we'll have our in-depth write-up of US green car sales available soon. For now, we await your comments, below. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts
Wed, 27 Feb 2013There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.
