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 |

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible is a Swiss hit
Mon, 04 Mar 2013We've just received an early peek at the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible here at the Geneva Motor Show. General Motors was kind enough to let us attend the final dress-rehearsal for its press conference scheduled for tomorrow's opening media day, and we've come away with a good look at the droptop C7 in person.
In the metal, the new Corvette Convertible seems somehow less avant-garde than the Coupe, even in Z51 Performance Package guise. That's not necessarily a bad thing - more of an observation. That initial impression may be because the C7's new greenhouse is one of its most prominent departures from Corvettes past. While we didn't get to see the top erected, there's no rear side window in the stock images that Chevy has already released, suggesting the C7 convertible's profile will look a lot like its C6 predecessor. And with the new power tonneau cover in place, there are also no rear ducts that come as part of the Z51 package (they've been moved under the car).
As with its predecessor, the tonneau is a handsome double-bubble piece, and the body-color "waterfall" element into the cabin between the seats has made it to the new model as well. Thus, the overall look with the top down should be a bit more familiar to prior-gen C6 owners - if you're one of those put off by the C7's new shape, you'll probably appreciate the convertible bodystyle more than the coupe.
Should heavy-duty pickup trucks have window stickers with fuel mileage estimates?
Sat, Sep 23 2017If you were to stroll into your nearest Chevrolet, Ford, GMC, Nissan, or Ram dealership, you'd find a bunch of pickup trucks. Most of those would have proper window stickers labeled with things like base prices, options prices, location of manufacture, and, crucially, fuel economy estimates. But you'd also run across a number of heavy-duty trucks with no such fuel mileage data from the Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA doesn't require automakers to publish the valuable miles-per-gallon measurement for vehicles with gross weight ratings that exceed 8,500 pounds. That makes it difficult for consumers to compare behemoths powered by turbocharged diesel engines – between one another, and between smaller, gasoline-fueled trucks. Consumer Reports doesn't think it should be this way, and it's spearheading an effort (PDF link) to get the government to require manufacturers to publish fuel economy estimates. In its own testing, CR found that heavy-duty pickups powered by Ford's Power Stroke, GM's Duramax, and FCA's Cummins diesel engines (which doesn't include the Ram's EcoDiesel) get worse fuel mileage than their lighter-duty gas-powered siblings. We're not so sure HD-truck buyers are unaware of this fact – big diesels don't really come into their own until big loads are placed in their beds or attached to their trailer hitches. Under heavy workloads, the diesel trucks will almost certainly return greater efficiency than a similar gas-powered truck. What's more, HD trucks with lumbering diesels in general make the driver feel more confident while towing due to greater torque at low engine RPM than gas trucks. They also offer greater max-weight limits. Still, we agree EPA fuel mileage estimates should be offered for heavy-duty pickups. And we think the comparisons provided by Consumer Reports might be interesting to potential buyers. Click here to see the results of CR's tests, and let us know what you think using the poll below.
