Deemed the "Hot One" this 1956 Belair Convertible runs a 265/225 HP dual quad V-8 with “Batwing” air cleaner.
It is a 3 speed manual transmission, column shift. It was Meticulously restored (rotisserie) to show quality a few
years ago. the 1956 Bel Air is considered by many fans of the “Tri-Five” era cars to be the perfect balancing
act of the mid-fifties flagship Chevrolet. Beyond its balance of old and new, the ’56 was also a stellar
performer in its day, with a win at the Pikes Peak Hillclimb and a 24-hour Darlington speed record to its credit.
The example being offered is handsomely presented in Matador Red and India Ivory two-tone exterior colors that are
also utilized in the interior. Among the equipment on the Bel Air you will find a V-8 engine with dual exhaust,
manual transmission, power soft-top, radio, dual sideview mirrors, spare and jack, factory wheel covers and
whitewall tires.

Ivory.

There were 41,883 2dr convertibles made in 1956 and only about 3% of all Bel Airs (Hardtops and Convertibles) had
the 265/225 HP dual quad V-8 with “Batwing” air cleaner, and even less in one of the most desirable color
combinations of Matador Red and India Ivory. You may never see this perfect combination again.
I have kept this stored in my climate controlled garage and there is no rusts or issues. Brakes need some minor
adjustments and there are minor leaks from being stored. The car starts right up and is ready to show.
Anyone is welcomed to come see the car in person in Fort Worth, just send me a message.

2020 Chevy Trax and Buick Encore spied testing
Tue, Aug 14 2018We just recently saw a little crossover SUV from General Motors being tested, and we weren't positive what brand it belonged to. We narrowed it down to Chevy or GMC, but we're feeling more confident that it's a GMC now, since both the next generation Chevy Trax and Buick Encore subcompact crossover SUVs have been spied testing together. Of the two, the Chevy has the more radically different sheet metal. It ditches the somewhat frumpy, lumpy shape of the current Trax for a body inspired by the bigger Chevy Blazer. The roofline has sharp corners, and the hood is wide and flat. The front fascia, though obscured, shows the most connection to the bigger crossover. It has the same split headlight configuration, and it looks as though the grille takes up a sizable section of the fascia. View 7 Photos The Buick Encore on the other hand looks evolutionary in design. The body still has plenty of curves, and the distinctive, sharply rising window sill are all hallmarks of the current Encore design. The headlights and grille are similar, too, though the grille appears to be slightly updated to fit in with the Enclave and Regal. It's understandable that Buick might want to play it safe with the new Encore, since the model is Buick's best seller, selling about 23,000 units in the last quarter, nearly twice that of the next best performer, the Enclave. Since this is the first time we've seen these little crossovers, we expect it will still be a year or two before we get to see them fully revealed. They will probably continue to use small-displacement turbocharged four-cylinder engines with either front- or all-wheel drive. Related Video:
Europeans ask Chevy to bring Volt back to Europe
Fri, Aug 14 2015A group of French fans is asking for a jolt of support from General Motors to get the 2016 Chevrolet Volt across the pond. The Association Amperistes et Amis des Vehicules Rechargeables is running a Change.org petition that currently has 383 signatures out of a goal of 500. While the attempt is admirable, it's probably going to take a lot more than several hundred people for the model to make a return to the continent after the poor showing of the Opel Ampera – first-gen Volt's European cousin. The group's major argument for bringing a version of the second-gen Volt to Europe is that consumers need "an intermediate choice between expensive or range-limited pure electric cars and plug-in hybrids with a miserable electric range." Furthermore, such a vehicle would prod the competition to produce similarly efficient electrified models. They also lavish praise on the abilities of the Ampera for its long EV driving range. The supporters aren't entirely kind to GM in the petition, though, and claim the company excluded the original car from marketing efforts there. The Ampera actually enjoyed a strong European launch with more orders than initially expected and briefly topped the best-sellers list among EVs there. It was even named 2012 European Car of the Year. Those halcyon days didn't last long, and by 2014 sales fell off to a trickle. The waning reception caused GM's decision not to introduce a version of the new 2016 Volt there or in Australia. Related Video:
