 This is the third 55 hardtop I've owned and thought I would not sell another one. But, I do have other projects I want to complete so it could sell for the right price, I've owned this 55 since 1989 and it will be hard to list every thing that has been done. I'm an Old School guy and tried to build this as a 60's , 70's hot rod with as little as possible new items. This is my driver and fun car so I drove it for a few years after purchase then slowly started working on it which lead to the body coming off and went from there.  There are new front and rear floors and they are welded in and not finished smooth , but ground and then seam sealed. Underside and frame painted with Emron.  This car took me until 3 years ago to complete due to 5 moves !! Has new quarters and I purchased doors , fenders , and trunk from Desert Valley back in 80's before they were known.  I believe the wheels are 60's astros , from a friends 58 vette he was redoing. Paint is less than three years old and is show quality but, does have some minor chips/scratches due to driving.  New smoked glass ( bottom of drivers window has some minor milkiness)   Custom 57 Buick grill , re chromed head lamp rims and tail bezels , Danchunk one piece rear bumper, new Bird.  /Grill surround original , minor pits. Hood is pinned and have removed bracing and latch, which I have, Heater not installed but I have 2 units. I have the original bumpers, fender wells , missing one lower flap,  and fenders/trunk..The interior  is two years old and beautiful!! CCR column, new hurst shifter am/fm radio Brand new saginaw 4spd from I believe MCR racing in texas. 1968 327 chevy 60 over , new crank etc. 202 head reworked with larger valves  ,30/30 solid cam hooker headers, custom 3inch duel exhaust with summit stainless turbos. It has a offenhauser intake on with two carters at this time which i received from a friend that road races a 62 vette the carbs are 409 chevy units with no choke and they run better than the brand new holley 450's show in the picks. You can have the holleys but I got rid of the 4 inch spacers needed to make it clear the distriburator All new suspension, shocks body mounts drag link tie rods etc.  new fuel and brake lines, sender unit. Disc brake conversion and new cylinders on rear. Tires are Hurst racing tires cheaters on rear. Also has a new Eaton Posi in the rear 373 gears. The only issues I know about the car are I have the original steering box in MANUAL  and it has some looseness , also the fuel gauge reads higher than in the tank and it has a new sender so possibly the gauge which I have another one ,I just keep it above 1/4 tank to be safe. . Also the car has a new Painless wiring harness and fuse box, and a Rain Gear electric wiper set up.  I have installed 8lb door popper on the doors and a manual release for the trunk per cable new 2 inch lowering springs in front, this car was built as an old school Gasser but no straight axle, and I like the custom look that's why the shaved handles trunk etc / Buick grill!!  any questions , Geno 440-822-7600  I'm sure I left a lot out!!!!!

Chevy working on production Impala Midnight Edition

Sat, Dec 13 2014

To put together the Impala Blackout concept for SEMA, Chevrolet didn't need to go much further than its accessories catalog. The in-house connection is what could make it possible for Chevy to get a production version of the Blackout into dealers this model year, with its few bits of chrome trim and dark detailing on the 19-inch aluminum wheels set into an abyss of gloss black paint, black Bowtie, grille surround, rear spoiler and mirror caps. The interior is black leather, with stainless steel for the sill plates and pedals, and an 11-speaker Bose audio system, and it gets the optional 305-horsepower, 3.6-liter V6. The brand's marketing director for cars and crossovers, Steve Majoros, told Edmunds that it could come in late spring, and that it will be called "Midnight Edition." Majoros didn't give any indication of pricing or if the production car will be spec'd out like the concept. If you simply don't want to wait for late spring, you could work your DIY mojo by putting one together the same way Chevrolet did: give the accessories catalog a workout. Related Video:

2014 Chevrolet Malibu gets more torque, more room and inspiration from the Impala

Fri, 31 May 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Malibu, having stared at the Impala across the showroom floor for a year, gets nips and tucks all over inspired by its larger brother. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder in the base car will get a stop-start system and 23 city miles per gallon, 35 highway, each number representing a one-mpg improvement over the 2013 car. Output is 196 horsepower and 186 pound-feet of torque.
Opt for the 2.0-liter turbo and, while power holds steady at 259 hp, torque goes up by 14 percent to a striking 295 lb-ft (a figure Chevy calls best in the class). The final details include newly programmed transmission shift points and faster shifts, for better engaging and enjoying the added power.
Looks-wise, the grille's been reshaped to be more in line with the new Chevrolet look, a narrower upper grille hovering over a larger lower grille.

Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.
