 Up for auction is my 1957 Belair with one re-paint of Canyon Coral w/India Ivory White Top. The motor is a 283 with a 4 barrel and is automatic transmission. My paperwork says that in Nov. 201l a new fuel pump and carburetor kit, 8 spark plugs, plug wires were installed. It has a new battery replaced this year. Also I had installed a new gasoline tank and all new lines up to the carburetor. I have alittle bit of information that was in the the glove box: the original Owner's Service Policy,  first owner's name was Ralph Hubbs of Wilson City, KS. The engine number is VC57K147355. Key number is #8594 (we still have the original key with 8594 stamped on the key). The car was bought by him at Ulrich Chevrolet Co. Lucas, KS in l957. I also have automobile registration receipt l957 and l958 issued to Ralph Hubbs. Have the original 1957 Guide To Your New Chevrolet pamphlet .

Let's talk about my 1957 Chevy.... I bought this car in June from a close friend here in Hutchinson, KS. He had bought it from a Hutchinson doctor in 2003. The doctor bought it in the 90's from Larry Frisbie in Lyons, KS. We believe that Larry bought the car from the Hubbs family. The car starts up nice but wants to hesitate when you put the pedal down. I think the timing may be a bit off  or the carburetor set to rich? It could also just need to be drive awhile on the highway ...which I have not had the time to do since our Paint Company business is in full swing right now!

 The interior is the original Black & Silver and is very nice. The only flaws being a small gap on the seam along the front seat and also one on the back seat seam (as shown in the pictures).. This can be an easy fix for an upholstery guy. The carpet appears to be the original & is pretty decent. The gauges all work except for the left blinker. This car shows 68,887 on the odometer. The paint of the car is in "Driver Quality" condition. Some scratches and cracks in the paint. Inside the trunk is the spare tire (which is flat but on the orig. wheel) and the car bumper jack. I found a very small amount of rust on both of the back door passengers bottom door frame by the chrome. It is about 1" long. Chrome trim is decent for it's age. The bumpers are original. The back bumper where the gas cap opening (by the fin) has been oxidized over the year and is dull. This car is factory radio delete. The back seat window shelf has shag carpet that is not glued on. Underneath the shag carpet the surface is very nice and is not faded or water stained.

All in all this car would make a very nice driver or kick it up a notch and restore it up to the level that you want!!  SO, Don't Monkey Around & Get Beat Off The Line By 2 Drag Racing Car Crazy MONKEY'S!!

It is sold without warranty. I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime. I highly recommend asking questions on EBay's "ask the buyer" option or inspecting the 57' in person prior to bidding. Shipping or pickup is to be arranged & paid for by the buyer. A $l,000 non-refundable deposit can be made thru PayPal but final payment will not be accepted thru PayPal. A Certified Cashier Check from a bank is required.

Malcolm Butler gets the MVP's Chevy Colorado

Wed, Feb 11 2015

In the wake of the Super Bowl last week, we reported that New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady intended to give the Chevy Colorado awarded to him as the game's most valuable player to Malcolm Butler instead. In our informal poll (to say nothing of the hundred-plus comments that ensued), an overwhelming 86.7 percent of you, our loyal readers, agreed that it was the right thing to do. And now that's precisely what's happened. "After consulting Super Bowl MVP Tom Brady," the automaker said in the press release below, "Chevrolet presented an all-new Colorado pickup to New England Patriots cornerback Malcolm Butler." The rookie, as you may have seen in between the commercials, made the game-saving interception that handed his team the victory, propelling Butler to stardom. "I am ecstatic that Chevrolet has chosen to reward me with a Colorado," said Butler upon taking delivery of his new red pickup. "It is just another unreal event in what has been an incredible week." We can only imagine. Enjoy the truck, Malcolm; you've earned it.

The Colorado was intended to be awarded to Brady, the Patriots' quarterback, in recognition of his Super Bowl Most Valuable Player award. However, Brady and Chevrolet huddled on Monday and Chevrolet determined Butler deserved recognition for his game-saving interception. "I've seen several game-changing moments in big games, and Malcom's interception last Sunday ranks up there as one of the biggest," said Brady. "I appreciate Chevrolet wanting to honor the Super Bowl's top performer, and I'm glad they have agreed to award the Colorado to Malcolm." Said Butler: "I am ecstatic that Chevrolet has chosen to reward me with a Colorado. It is just another unreal event in what has been an incredible week." The Chevrolet Colorado, 2015 Motor Trend Truck of the Year®, was engineered to be the most capable, most versatile and most technologically advanced midsize truck in the market. With class-leading horsepower and fuel economy along with a 4G LTE built-in Wi-Fi hotspot, the Colorado adds a new dimension to the Chevy truck line.

Chevrolet Camaros at SEMA are a mobile accessory catalog

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

Chevy's goal at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas this week seems to be to show as much of its Performance and Accessories catalog as possible. That's why it brought three different Camaros - two with V8s and one powered by a V6 - with all of the best goodies from the catalog already fitted.
We gave a more in-depth recap of the Performance Camaro V8 Concept, the Performance Camaro V6 Concept and the Performance Garage Concept already, but we figured you'd like a short recap for each. It should be noted, though, that you can order all of the items you see here for your own Camaro, so be sure to take a long, hard look at our live galleries, just in case you're in the market for some mods.
Essentially, the Performance Garage Concept and the Performance V8 Concept are the same car - the only difference is that the later features a whole host of aesthetic tweaks in addition to its aftermarket, shorty exhaust headers and 2.75-inch exhaust. (The Performance Garage Concept has been usefully placed on its side; the better to see the new parts added to the vehicle.) The Performance V6 Concept is notable because, despite being a V6, there's no shortage of performance goodies fitted. All three of the Performance Camaros benefit from items from the Camaro ZL1, which can also be ordered through the catalog.

2014 Corvette Stingray meets Tesla Model S in drag strip showdown

Wed, Jan 29 2014

They come from two different worlds and have little in common. The Tesla Model S P85 is the sportiest version of this paradigm-punching sedan from California, while the 2014 Corvette Stingray Z51 is a performance-enhanced version of Michigan's recently-updated sports car stalwart. The West Coast car seats five adults and eats electrons like Popeye eats spinach, the Easterner has two passenger places and, surprisingly, sips gasoline like one might bourbon. An attribute they do happen to share is extreme quickness. This similarity is all the excuse Drag Times needed to set the vehicles beside each other at the Palm Beach International Raceway for a bit of mano-a-mano quarter-mile combat. Fortunately enough, cameras were rolling for each of two bouts down the blacktop and the results recorded for our edification and enlightenment. The winner? We won't spoil it for you, but let's just say it's really, really close. How close? Scroll below and watch the video for yourself. Just be warned, the results may surprise you.
