1957 Chevy Bel Air 2 Door Post V-8 3 Speed Automatic Transmission Rally Wheels Recent Paint, Interior, and Windshield Offered for sale is one of America's most desirable cars...the 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air. The Bel Air was the highest model, and this is the 2 door post model. As you can see in the photos, it's a good looking car. The trim is intact, the body looks great, and the interior has been redone. It has been raining here for the past few days, so I put off taking pictures, but the forecast shows more rain, so I decided to go ahead and take them. The car is shiny when it's not wet. It's paint is smooth, no visible rust or bubbles, and the glass is all good. The windshield and rubber seal were replaced last week, so they're perfect. I tried to get a picture from every angle so you can see how it all lines up. It can be driven just like it is, and you can fly in and drive it home if you are the adventurous type. The car starts easily, idles well, steers, shifts, and stops like it should. It has a great sounding small block V-8 with dual exhaust. Not loud, but sounds excellent. I don't know if it's a 283, 327, or 350. It could very well be the original engine...but I don't know. It has a 3 speed automatic transmission, which replaced the factory Powerglide. The interior was replaced and looks good, as seen in the pictures. The headliner, door panels, and carpet all look great. It's a car you can buy and drive without having to do a lot of work to it. It's a good 5-10 footer, but if you've tried to find cheap 57 Chevys, it's near impossible. I don't have access to a lift, so I can't get photos of the underneath. The trunk, areas around the windshield and rear window, and the cowl and firewall all look solid. The car is being listed to be sold. Please, no games or dreamers. You either want the car and can pay for it, or you can't. Let's not make this harder than it has to be. If you want to see it first, please inspect BEFORE the auction ends. You're bidding to win, not to set up a future date to look it over. Serious buyers will know what to do. I can add a Buy it Now if you want me to do that, or I can end the auction early for those who just can't wait. I'll help any way that I can. I can send additional pictures if you send me your email address, and I can't get you in touch with the owner if there's anything you need to speak to him about. I have a clean, clear title in hand that's ready to hand off to the new owner. The car will not leave my possession until all funds have cleared. If we agree on a price and I end the auction early, the payment should come quickly. If you want to wait and see how the auction turns out, that's your call. I don't think it will go the full 7 days, but time will tell. These 57s are getting harder and harder to find. You can reach me at northshorebill@aol.com, or call/text me at 941-740-2277. Texts and emails usually get a quicker response than calls. The car is located in Port Charlotte...about 90 miles south of Tampa on Florida's Gulf Coast. I am about 10 miles off of I-75, so driving it home or shipping. It will be quick and painless to get on the road heading home. Thanks for looking, and Happy Bidding !!! On Jun-05-14 at 10:20:22 PDT, seller added the following information: Just a quick update. Two people felt the need to write and say the car is a 210, and not a Bel Air. They say there is chrome missing, which is possible. They say it should have more. That's possible too. When I wrote them back, I didn't get a reply. I'm going by the VIN or serial number, if you prefer it to be called that. It starts with a "V". That means it was a factory V-8 car. 6 cylinder cars started with an A, B, or C...not a V. A= a 150 model, B= a 210 model, and C= a Bel Air. This is a VC car, and shown on the serial number plate photo from inside the driver's door. I didn't go by the chrome that is or isn't there...I went by the actual number of the car. You decide for yourself. I'm going with the facts that I can prove. REAL Bel Air, REAL V-8 CAR. LOWERED RESERVE!!! Don't miss out, it looks like the car will sell. I can end the auction early for the right price. If no one offers that price, the auction will go to the end and everyone can bid what they feel it's worth to them. Good Luck |

GM recalling 521,817 cars in two campaigns
Tue, May 12 2015General Motors is issuing two, separate recalls covering a total of 521,817 vehicles worldwide. The larger campaign covers 468,887 units of the 2011-2012 Chevrolet Malibu. Specifically, 437,045 of these are in the US, and the rest are outside the country. In these sedans, a steel cable that connects the seat belt to the vehicle can fatigue and separate. GM knows of 36 claims about the problem but only one minor injury. According to The Detroit News, this happened when a taxi driver hit his head. To fix things, dealers will replace the "outboard lap mounting bracket," which will move the tensioner rearward. They'll also inspect and if necessary replace the steel cable and lap pretensioner. In the second campaign, 52,930 examples the 2015 Chevy Colorado and 2015 GMC Canyon have seat frame attachment hooks that were installed incorrectly during assembly. GM hasn't received any reports of crashes, injuries, or fatalities about this problem. Dealers will inspect the affected trucks and repair as necessary. GM spokesperson Alan Adler told Autoblog that he didn't yet have a specific date when affected owners would receive official mailings about either of these recalls. GM Statement General Motors is recalling 48,309 2015 model year Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon midsize pickup trucks in the U.S. because certain seat frame attachment hooks were not properly attached to the vehicle body during assembly. Dealers will inspect the potentially affected seats for proper installation and repair if necessary. GM knows of no crashes, injuries or fatalities related to this condition. The total vehicle population of the recall is 52,930 including 4,620 vehicles sold in Canada. General Motors is recalling 437,045, 2011-2012 model year Chevrolet Malibus in the U.S. because the flexible steel cable that connects the safety belt to the vehicle can fatigue and separate over time as a result of occupant movement in the seat. Dealers will replace the outboard lap mounting bracket to relocate the tensioner slightly rearward. Dealers will inspect the cable and, if necessary, replace the lap pretensioner. GM knows of 36 claims, no crashes or fatalities and one minor injury reportedly related to the condition. The total vehicle population of the recall is 468,887 including Canada, Mexico and exports.
5 classic trucks and their polarizing modern revivals
Sun, Mar 3 2024EVs are helping eliminate Detroit's gas-guzzling problem. Some revivals of gas-powered classics are getting the EV treatment. But not every revived model looks exactly like its original counterpart. We're in a new era of hulking Detroit metal, and you can thank EVs. Americans can't get enough of their big, beefy trucks and SUVs. But for many years, some of the biggest gas guzzlers fell out of fashion as gas prices rose and emissions regulations tightened. But in the past few years, some of the most iconic American truck nameplates have been brought back to life with electric motors, like the GMC Hummer. In other cases, as with the Ford Bronco, improvements in engine technology and more interest in rugged adventure vehicles made a gas-powered revival possible. Even some revivals that started as gas-powered, like the Chevy Blazer and the Jeep Wagoneer, are now getting electrified spinoffs. (Even if they don't always look quite as sleek as their original inspiration.) Here are side-by-sides of five classic American trucks and their modern counterparts. The Jeep Wagoneer 1975 Jeep Wagoneer and 2024 Electric Jeep Wagoneer SStellantis After a long wait, Jeep released its revival of the classic Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer in 2020. Starting later this year, an electric version of the luxury Jeep SUV will join the Wagoneer lineup. The Chevrolet Blazer A 1973 Chevrolet Blazer and a 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EVGetty Images, General Motors The Chevrolet Blazer was first rebooted in 2019 as a sporty family SUV. The modern Blazer shares zero resemblance to its boxy, off-roading older sibling, but it has still managed to become one of Chevy's more popular SUVs in recent years. The Blazer EV came later, and was one of the first models GM built on its new Ultium battery platform. The Hummer A Hummer H2 and the 2023 Hummer EV pickup truckGetty Images, General Motors Once the poster child for Detroit's big, bad gas guzzlers, the Hummer got new life as an electric pickup truck in 2021. The Ford Bronco A 1971 Ford Bronco and a 2022 Ford BroncoFord Motor Co. After a rouge group of engineers and designers inside Ford spent years trying to breathe life back into the Blue Oval's boxy off-roader, the Ford Bronco was finally resurrected in 2020 amid a rise in popularity for rugged adventure vehicles. The Ford Ranger 1985 Ford Ranger and a 2024 Ford RangerFord Motor Co.
GM follows Ford and Honda in skipping SEMA
Fri, May 20 2022The list of automakers skipping SEMA has become longer. First reported by Muscle Cars and Trucks, and confirmed to us by a company representative, General Motors will not have an official presence at the aftermarket show. It joins Ford and Honda in leaving the show. It will be a large hole in the show, with the GM brands typically filling a significant swath of available show space in one of the main halls. GM hasn't provided much explanation for the move, either. The GM representative provided Autoblog with the same statement that Muscle Cars and Trucks got: "GM has made the decision not to participate in the 2022 SEMA Show. The SEMA show has always inspired us, and accessories and performance parts remain an important part of our business." We also asked if we would see any sort of announcements around the time of the show — Ford said it has plans to share some things around that time — however, the GM representative said that the company has no immediate plans for announcements. Certainly things could change between now and the November show, though. SEMA had previously noted that other exhibitors would help fill in some of the space vacated by these major OEMs. Another OEM, Volkswagen, is returning to the show after an absence, which will also help with the display deficit.
