Found! An all original unrestored 1957 Chevy. The previous owner parked the car in 1984 to be restored. Lots of new and used parts were ordered and will be included with the sale. The engine was partially disassembled, rags were stuffed into holes, and the project was stopped and never completed. The owner has since passed on and I bought this from his wife. According to the Idaho DMV there was only one title prior to me. Overall the body and underside are in pretty good condition for the age. Some rust through in the floor pans. No signs of bondo or any kind of body repair. Except for the front left fender the body is pretty straight. Everything looks original, except for the voltage regulator which looks aftermarket. All of the windows and doors operate. There is a dent in the right rear quarterpanel, a few small dents on the roof, and it looks like the car ran over a rock. I do not see any major frame damage, just a dent on a support member.  The frame looks straight. The front windshield needs replacing. This is a major restoration project, but car is pretty complete. Matching engine & VIN numbers, radiator # is correct, I didn't check others numbers. It looks like all of the parts removed from the engine compartment were placed in the trunk, and are shown on one of the pictures. The engine turns over freely by hand, not frozen. 

For an extra $500 plus crating and shipping the buyer can have a nice 350 engine, has 4-bbl Rochester. I heard it running in the donor vehicle before it was pulled. The antifreeze was clear and green, the oil was light bodied and not burnt, oil pressure was good, idled smooth. Looking in the oil filler opening the valves and head are spotless. This was a recent high quality rebuild. The block was decked (no VIN) but other than that, I  do not know what all was done, and I am not going o tear it apart to find out. The only way to find out exactly what is inside would be to tear it apart and measure everything. was just going to put it in the Chevy, replace the clutch, and drive it. Look closely at the pictures and you can see the engine on a stand.

GM files to trademark name Badlands

Mon, Feb 23 2015

If you've been hoping for General Motors to come out swinging at the Ford F-150 Raptor, we've had some tantalizing news for you of late. Last month we brought you a report that indicated GM has trademarked the name "Z71 Trail Boss," suggesting a potential hardcore off-roader. Now it seems the General has filed for a potentially even better name. That name, as our friends over at GM Authority have discovered, is "Badlands." The application, filed on February 16, indicates that it's for a truck, but of course it doesn't specify just what form it would take... or for that matter, under which division it would fall. So we could, in theory, be looking at the nameplate for a Raptor rival from Chevy or GMC (like the 2011 Sierra All Terrain HD concept pictured here), or for some other trim level, a concept truck, a special edition... just about anything. Heck, it could be for a Vauxhall, Opel or Holden for all we know at this point. Or GM could choose not to use it on anything at all, but here's hoping it'll emerge as something awesome in US showrooms sometime soon.

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]

Mon, 27 May 2013

If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.

Outrageous Thor24 semi truck to appear in the new season of 'Jay Leno's Garage'

Tue, Apr 28 2020

Wednesday is Jay Leno's birthday, and CNBC used the occasion to announce the upcoming season of Jay Leno's Garage. In a new teaser video, Leno is seen with a stacked list of guests, some new, some repeats, as well as a wild gamut of vehicles, including the absolutely insane 24-cylinder, 3,424-horsepower Thor24.  The outrageous semi build, which sold at auction in Saudi Arabia earlier this year for a whopping $12 million (or $1 million per supercharger) will join the likes of the Tesla Cybertruck and a recliner on wheels on the upcoming season of Jay's series.  Thor24 View 24 Photos The formula for Jay Leno's Garage is simple, successful, and not changing anytime soon. He brings out a bunch of famous people, some of which are real enthusiasts, others who have more casual driving backgrounds, and they experience a vehicle together. In the short clip released by CNBC, Leno is accompanied by Elon Musk (again), Danny Trejo, Bill Burr, Tim Allen, Jon Hamm, Brad Garrett, Jeff Dunham, Kelly Clarkson, Matt LeBlanc, Blake Shelton, Norm MacDonald, Edd China, and Jon Lovitz.           View this post on Instagram                   Thank you for sharing your dream with us. Happy Birthday, Jay! Love always, your @cnbcprime Family. A post shared by Jay Leno's Garage (@jaylenosgarage) on Apr 28, 2020 at 8:27am PDT The people, however, are merely social lubricants to spotlight the real stars of the show, the cars. This season will include the Tesla Cybertruck, the record-breaking Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+, a 1965 Buick Riviera, a naked cat car, an Aston Martin DBS Superleggera, a Porsche Taycan, a modern Ford GT, a Chevrolet Corvette C8 hard-top convertible, amphicars, a snail car, a beetle car, a couch car, and the 24-cylinder, 12-supercharger, 3,424-horsepower Thor24 semi. Just to name a few. As usual, there will be racing, stunts, spinouts, smoke from both tires and engines, and lots of silly dad jokes. Season 5 of Jay Leno's Garage debuts on CNBC on May 20 at 10 p.m. ET.
