This cream puff has been restored from the frame up. 47,499 miles...believed to be original miles. Still has original spiral shocks. The Blue Flame six cylinder engine and original power glide automatic transmission were pulled, gone through with new gaskets, seals, etc. and reinstalled after the firewall and motor were repainted. This is a high quality paint job including door jams, etc...it looks like a sheet of glass. It was painted the original color scheme of Canyon Corral and Ivory and has new weather stripping and matching fender skirts. The car was all disassembled and taken to bare metal for the paint job and restoration about six years ago. The frame and undercarriage have been painted and undercoated. This is a very solid car...floor pans, body mounts, etc (see pics). The doors open and close very nice. This car drives and rides like a dream.

This car has super nice chrome. New chrome at restoration time include new bumpers, grill bar, rockets, scoops, headlight bezels, front fender extensions, door mirrors, front fender louvers, emblems and chrome window visors. Other new parts at restoration time include new gas tank, exhaust, hoses, belts, electric windshield wiper motor, water pump, brake job including brake lines and master cylinder.

Personal testimonies show real-world effect of plugging in with Chevy Volt

Mon, Jan 13 2014

At this point, there are tens of thousands of individual stories about what it's like to live with a Chevrolet Volt. But it also remains informative to take a look at one of these in depth. For example, one Atlanta-area Volt owner says he's cut his cents-per-mile ownership costs by almost 40 percent compared to his previous car primarily because of his ability to drive almost all the time on electric power. Jeffrey Cohen told Clean Technica that he put about 14,000 miles on his Volt extended-range plug-in hybrid for the year that ended October 2013, and that more than 92 percent of those were on electrons. He estimates his "lifetime" miles per gallon rating at a whopping 384 mpg, a figure pushed upward by the fact that he installed a Level 2 charger at home while his employer added an external 110-volt charger at work. Cohen is spending 45 cents a mile for his car, compared to 73 cents in his Infiniti M35. As a result, he's spending 45 cents a mile for his car, compared to 73 cents a mile with his prior vehicle, an Infiniti M35. About two-thirds of those Volt costs are for the $349-a-month lease payments, while 15 percent is insurance, 11 percent is for the charger and seven percent for the gas and electricity that actually powers the car. Helping lower that last figure is an overnight electricity rate that's about 10 percent of Cohen's daytime rate. Chevy parent General Motors hopes such testimonies will re-trigger sales for the Volt in 2014. Last year, GM sold 23,094 Volts, down 1.6 percent from 2012. We expect our readers have similar stories they'd like to share in the Comments.

Helicopter crashes on Top Gear Korea set while chasing Corvette ZR1

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

The formula of Top Gear Korea is seemingly about the same as it is everywhere else in the world, including the flagship British original: involve interesting cars in fantastical situations with charismatic hosts. That prescription has proved to be pretty reliable over the years, and has lead to some truly memorable and exciting pieces of television.
Something like that was undoubtedly what the Korean producers were after when they lined up this segment - a drag race between a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and an AH1 Cobra military helicopter. The planners almost certainly did not expect the filming of the segment to go quite as wrong as it actually did, with the helicopter actually crashing into the dirt after the "drag race" had been completed. Thankfully, we're told that no one was seriously injured in the crash, but the footage, in the video below, is pretty damn chilling to watch, nevertheless.
