1957 Chevy Bel Air.  True Bel Air car in very nice shape.  350 V-8 with Turbo 350.  This is in no way a show car, as it needs some TLC.  Was an amateur restoration for the most part, 7-8 years ago.  Still gets compliments everywhere she goes.  You will see in the photos, there are just a few rust bubbles on the lower front of the doors and right front quarter panel.  There is pitting on the door handles and some of the chrome.  Other than that, no pitting, rust, etc.  As you can see, trunk is perfect, and though we tried, pictures of the underside didn't come out legible.  I will guarantee the underside, including floor pans, etc. is rust free!  An ugly radio and 2 gauges were added to the dash that I don't care for.  Now to the good parts.  The engine and tranny were professionally rebuilt by a well known shop that did a perfect job.  Mild cam, edelbrock carb and manifold.  Very strong, shifts smooth, sounds nice!  The upholstery was also professionally done and looks like new.  I had it cleaned last year.  The paint is still very shiny and looks great.  The wheels and tires are like new.  I replaced the original radiator with the aluminum one as it just couldn't handle the 350, it keeps cool now.  Also replaced the steering box, as there was a lot of play before.  Perfect now.  If you live in the area and was at the Medford cruise last month, you may have seen us there.  But I am keeping my personalized plates.  It is available for inspection (almost) anytime.  And if you decide to use a transport company, I will be happy to drive her to a nearby location for easy loading.  Any questions, please feel free to ask.

General Motors Recalls Nearly 780,000 Cars To Fix Deadly Problem

Thu, Feb 13 2014

General Motors is recalling nearly 780,000 compact cars in North America because the engines can shut down unexpectedly and cause crashes. The company says six people have been killed in crashes related to the problem. The recall affects Chevrolet Cobalts and Pontiac G5s from the 2005 through 2007 model years. U.S. safety regulators say the weight of the key ring and rough roads can move the ignition switch out of the run position, cutting the engine and electricity. If that happens, air bags may not work. GM says there have been 22 crashes from the problem. All happened at high speeds. Dealers will replace the ignition switch for free. GM says owners should remove nonessential items from key rings until the problem is fixed.

Chevy Bolt wins 2017 Green Car of the Year

Thu, Nov 17 2016

We knew that a plug-in vehicle was going to win the 2017 Green Car of the Year award this year, given that all five finalists have a way to charge up. And when Ron Cogan, the editor and publisher of Green Car Journal, announced the winner – the 2017 Chevy Bolt EV – he said that the car itself represents one of those times in the auto industry when everything is about to change. Similar to the invention of the starter motor, things are about to get different. For now, though, the fact that the Bolt EV won an award sounds like the same old thing all over again. Just this week, it was named Motor Trends Car of the Year and to the Car And Driver Top 10 list. The other four finalists for Green Car of the Year included the Toyota Prius Prime, the Chrysler Pacifica, the Kia Optima (including hybrid and plug-in hybrid models) and the BMW 330e iPerformance. Last year, the winner was the 2016 Chevy Volt. Did Green Car Journal make the right selection this year? See the award ceremony below.

Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
