1957 Chevy Belair 2dr sedan
Car was professionally appraised. This is what he said....
I have inspected the following vehicle and found a driver quality survivor. This car is what I'd call a backwards restoration!. What I mean is restoring the drive train and interior first. All the running gear is new and fresh. The motor is a new 350 ci 300 hp with new Edelbrock carburetor and intake. Its equipped with an H.E.I. distributor, headers and all new exhaust system. It has a rebuilt 700 R4 transmission with a B & M mega floor shifter. Also has been upgraded with a 9" Ford rear end and new brakes. Front suspension with upgraded with 2" drop spindles and power disc brakes and 605 power steering box.
The body is in very good shape with little or no damage, but has some minor rust in lower trunk deck lid. It's been shot with a semi-gloss nostalgia appearing paint job but needs repainted. All the stainless trim is complete and in good shape and bumpers, grill and hood bars are also straight but needs re-chroming to take the car to the next level.
Now the interior is this car's strong point. It's been completely restored inside with all new black dash and windo moldings. It has a Bel Air dash insert added custom auto sound AM/FM Stereo with hidden antenna and 6 x 9 rear seat shelf speakers. It has a flaming river tilt column and Corvette style leather covered steering wheel. Also equipped with nostalgia retro Sunpro tach. The seats front and rear, side panels and headliner have all been restored with the coveted Del ray interior package. Dynomat sound deadening and new carpets on floors and trunk.
Its got a new windshield and all glass has been re-set and restored with new glass channels and felts installed throughout. Also has new door and trunk seals and all rubber details. Fuel system was also replaced with new tank, hoses and sender. It has a gold Bel Air mesh in the grill and Bel Air quarter panel inserts on rear quarters. It rolls on Centerline billet wheels and radial tires.
New fuel tank and hoses. New balanced driveline. Flaming River tilt column with 605 pwr strg, new front end w/cross, drag & idler.Retro Sun Tach, New headers and exhaust.All new wiring original gauges rewired and working (except odometer)..New "classic radio" and electric wipers with delay.Floor pans and door posts replaced and d/s rocker panel. Dynamat through out interior. Heat, fan, vent and defrost all working.Original seats with correct stock "Del Ray" interior complete. All interior knobs, handles and arm rests correct new.All glass good, new window, door and trunk seals. New correct trunk carpet. New correct side and review mirrors.Centerline Wheels, all chrome in place.
Its ready to drive anywhere, but needs exterior restoration to be a top notch unit.

Nissan Leaf has 2nd-best sales month ever, Chevy Volt does a 2013 repeat [UPDATE]
Tue, Apr 1 2014UPDATE: The official press release says that "Volt [sales were] up 7 percent," but Randy Fox let AutoblogGreen know that this is simply due to a change in the fleet/retail mix between March 2013 and 2014. The actual number sold was exactly the same in the two months. A month ago, Nissan's director of EV sales and marketing, Toby Perry, said he expected to see the Leaf's sales momentum continue into March. It wasn't a big leap, since January and February were slow sales months in 2013 (around 640 each) before a big climb to 2,200 in March. In 2014, the first two months of the year were better (around 1,300 each) but Nissan can still be happy that the Leaf just had the best March ever and its second-highest sales month ever, with 2,507 sold. That's a 12.1 percent increase from 2013 and Perry said in a statement to AutoblogGreen that one reason is all of the buyers who are becoming evangelists for the vehicle. "We've also seen an increase in showroom traffic as we enhanced our marketing presence in March," he said. Nissan pointed to cities like Washington, DC, Raleigh-Durham, NC and urban areas in Texas as strong Leaf markets last month. On the Chevy Volt front, January and February were also slow months in 2014, down roughly half from the 2,000-ish the plug-in hybrid was selling at the end of 2013. For 2014, sales were up slightly from the first two months of the year and Chevy spokesman Randy Fox told AutoblogGreen that the March number was "pretty flat, year-over-year." Even with that warning, we were surprised to see the total come in at 1,478. Why's that? Because the total for March 2013 was ... 1,478. So, yeah, that's pretty steady even if there were 26 selling days in March period this year compared to 27 last year. As always, our more complete report of last month's green car sales will be coming soon. News Source: General Motors, Nissan Green Chevrolet GM Nissan Electric Hybrid PHEV ev sales
Chevy confirms Corvette Stingray Convertible for Geneva
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Want proof that General Motors has increased global ambitions for its 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray? It's staging the world premiere of the model's convertible variant at the Geneva Motor Show early next month.
As previously rumored, the droptop rendered above will debut at the Swiss show, making its first appearance anywhere on March 5. According to Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet, the location makes sense because Corvette "...is an icon that has long been recognized and admired even in countries where it's never officially been offered."
While neither Chevrolet nor the Corvette has a major sales presence in Switzerland, the Bowtie's European headquarters is located in Zurich (about three hours to the northeast of Geneva) and GM has made it clear that it wants to build the Chevrolet brand up across Europe.
Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR
Fri, 08 Feb 2013There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.
