1958 Biscayne 348 tri-power, 4 speed. This car runs, sounds, and drives excellent. It tracks straight, and stops nice. It has all the upgrades you would want in an old car. Power steering, power DISC brakes, and electric fan. The frame and floors are all SUPER solid. Frame is perfect. NO rust. The floors were replaced a few years back. It was done professionally, and correctly, including a rubberized undercoating. No cheap patch job. In fact, you'd have a hard time telling they were replaced. The body is good, but not great. Looks good at 10ft, but has it's share of flaws. It has an older paint job. Basically, it could use a nice paint job. It deserves it. Same for the chrome and trim. All there and good, but some of it would need replacing for show. Interior is excellent. Only flaw is a headliner seam split near the back. Carpet and door sill plates are brand new,and the seats and door panels are near perfect.Glass is all good. Just one small vent window is cracked. Windows go up and down nice, and everything works but the speedo and amp gauge. Motor runs VERY strong, and does NOT smoke. Starts right up, and runs very smooth. Originally a 6 cylinder. It's only running on the center carb right now, but will run on all three. The linkage does work, but isn't factory correct. The clutch is excellent, and the Saginaw 4-speed shifts through all the gears really nice and smooth. It's a pleasure to drive. Exhaust is near new without ANY leaks, and it also has a fresh tune-up. Points, plugs, wires, condensor, cap and rotor, and battery are all brand new. Car sounds awesome. The only thing it would need to be a daily driver is an emergency brake cable. Other than that, ready to be enjoyed without worries. It will leave the typical old car drip or two of oil. Original valve covers and radio included, Bottom line, this a fairly rare car, with the perfect motor-tranny combo. It's super solid, so a nice paint job would return you every penny invested. Only going up in value. Best of all, it's priced with a reasonable reserve. Any questions, feel free to ask. My name is Jim, and I can be reached at (585) 261-6547. You can email as well. Please ignore the negative feedback left recently. It was one idiot, who lost a challenge over a very minor issue. Ebay doesn't allow for removing the negative comment once it's left. No disappointments with this car. Also, I will assist with shipping any way I can.

Expect greater differentiation in GM's next-generation SUVs

Thu, 03 Jan 2013

General Motors says its next-generation Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade models will offer shoppers improved interior differentiation. Car and Driver recently caught up with Chris Hilts, GM's creative manager of interior design, who said that the cabins will all feature unique instrument panels, consoles, center stacks and switchgear moving forward. Apparently GM is now aware that consumers may be bothered by the fact that today's $85,000 Escalade has effectively the same cabin as a $45,000 Tahoe. Hilts says SUV buyers want more refinement than their pickup purchasing counterparts - and those same buyers also want their SUVs to have more exterior differentiation between the company's Silverado and Sierra pickup lines. Shocking.
That all sounds good to us, but we've heard this song and dance before. GM made big waves about how different the new-for-2013 Silverado and Sierra would look from each other, but judging by what we've seen so far, GM's stylists are painting in shades rather than with the full spectrum.

UAW to vote on strike at Kentucky Corvette plant

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

The current wait time for a new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is well, not short. With word of a strike at the Bowling Green, KY factory responsible for seventh-generation sports car, though, that wait time could end up growing substantially.
Now, a strike is still a ways off. UAW Local 2164, which represents the 800 workers responsible for screwing the Corvette together, is set to vote on authorizing a strike today, but even if the employees give the action a go, it's far from a sure thing. According to The Tennessean, both regional and national union officials would need to put their stamp of approval on strike action.
"The membership has to vote to strike, but it's just a step in the process," said Gary Casteel, the UAW's Region 8 director and one of the people that would need to authorize a strike action. Casteel told The Tennessean, "It's purely a local situation, though. They are having some issues with the local management."

GM to build next-gen Chevy Cruze in Mexico

Tue, Mar 24 2015

As one of its global products, General Motors builds the Chevy Cruze for local consumption at assembly plants around the world: in Australia, South Korea, Vietnam, Thailand, China, India, Kazakhstan, Russia, Brazil and Ohio. The automaker is expected to trim those locations for the next generation of its compact sedan, but its latest announcement has it adding a new site to the list: Mexico. As part of a $350-million investment, GM's plant at Ramos Arizpe in Coahuila will gear up for production as one of several sites that will be charged with building the next-gen Cruze. The General has yet to announce just which plants those will be, but it has confirmed that the Lordstown, Ohio, site will once again be among them. The plant in St Petersburg, Russia, which has produced the current Cruze, is being shut down, as is the Holden plant in Elizabeth, Australia. The Ramos Arizpe assembly plant currently puts together the Chevy Sonic and Captiva as well as the Cadillac SRX, but has over the course of its 34-year history handled a variety of models for the Chevy, Pontiac, Buick, Cadillac, Saturn, Opel and even Saab brands. The site handles a quarter of GM's production in Mexico, and exports 87 percent of its capacity to other markets. Invertira GM 350 mdd en Ramos Arizpe para fabricar siguiente generacion de Chevrolet Cruze 2015-03-23 - Se consolida GM de Mexico como el sexto productor global de vehiculos para General Motors Company Ramos Arizpe, Coahuila - General Motors de Mexico anuncio este dia que invertira 350 millones de dolares en su Complejo de Manufactura Ramos Arizpe, para fabricar en estas instalaciones la siguiente generacion del modelo Chevrolet Cruze. "Esta inversion, que forma parte de los 5 mil millones de dolares anunciados en diciembre pasado para todo el pais, fortalecera la presencia de GM Ramos Arizpe en la produccion de nuestra compania a nivel mundial y, por supuesto, consolidara a Mexico como el sexto productor de automoviles para GM Company, con el 7% de la produccion global", informo Ernesto M. Hernandez, Presidente y Director General de GM de Mexico. En una reunion de trabajo en la que participaron Ruben Moreira, Gobernador del Estado de Coahuila y Rogelio Garza, Subsecretario de Industria y Comercio del Gobierno Federal, el Presidente de General Motors en el pais aseguro que el Complejo GM Ramos Arizpe se ha consolidado como un iman para las inversiones de la compania a nivel global.
