I'm afraid I have taken too long in restoring this car. I'm 70 now and retired. I have lost interest and financially will have a hard time finishing this project that I have had for over 15 years. I am going to offer this beautiful 55 Chevy up for sale, but if it does not bring at least my starting bid, please dont email me with an offer. I wont sell it for any less. The car was professional painted probably 4 years ago, after that I traded a professional top notch auto repair shop a nice 1966 Chevelle to do a turn key mechanical repair to make my 55 drivable. They installed a crate 350 motor, 700 R tranny, rewired the car with a new wire harness, installed disc brakes in the front, BE COOL, radiator. They were suppose to install VINTAGE AIR, but they had so many hours into the car, they stopped half way through. I tried to call them on the carpet to finish our agreement, but they said they were way over the value of the Chevelle. All of the chrome is either new originals or buffed out original. The car is drivable. I have probably 100 miles on it since I picked it up at the mechanic shop. There is so much more that has done to the car, but it would take way too long to tell all. The tires are new. You will be getting all the parts that are missing off of the car . Actually there may be a whole pickup load of extra parts. I have the restored steering wheel and all that goes with it, the rechromed front bumper, at least two beautiful sets of original hubcaps, several grilles, just a ton of extra parts goes with the car. I have a complete set of original hardtop seats and door panels. The seats and panels are in an upholstery shop, but I think I will have to pick them up UNFINISHED. This is another reason I'm tired of the car. This is my second upholster. The first one had all my interior for 3 years and never started it, but did bleed me for some of the money. This upholster has had the interior for 1 year and has not started. I hate to say it, but I have meet more flakes in the auto business than anything else I've ever seen. Back to the 55 Chevy. You will need to finish installing the interior chrome. I do have the headliner bows, but I never have bought the headliner material ( the upholster was suppose to do that ). I do have the rolls of vinyl ( red & white ) to do the interior. You will have to button up the front end with the grille , head lights, splash pan and bumper. I have all the parts and the splash pans are painted. You will have to finish wiring the VINTAGE A/C. it's basicly minor adjustments thats left to do, but still a few hours to put in. I know I'm probably forgetting a lot to mention, so if interested please email me. I've had numerous request to call people, so to be fair to all you can call me at 208-461-5730 Dan

GM, UAW poaching Nissan workers in Tennessee

Tue, Sep 8 2015

General Motors and the United Auto Workers are going on a recruitment drive at the Spring Hill factory in Tennessee, and they're hoping to poach some skilled workers from Nissan's nearby plant in Smyrna, TN. The General and the union even bought a billboard advertising for industrial electricians near the Japanese automaker's facility, according to the Daily News Journal. The reason for the billboard was simple. "GM was short of electricians," said Tim Stannard, the president of the UAW local at Spring Hill, to the Daily News Journal. The factory currently builds the Chevrolet Equinox but has a contract to assemble the next generation of Ecotec engines and the Cadillac XT5, which replaces the SRX. Thanks to the $185-million deal, employment there is expected to double by May 2016, according to Stannard, with roughly 1,800 additional union jobs. Beyond just several billboards, GM has job postings online for the Spring Hill plant looking for workers with specific skills. There has already been some interest in the positions among Nissan employees, Stannard indicated. According to a recent study by the Center for Automotive Research, the average GM worker currently makes $58 an hour, including benefits. Comparatively, Nissan pays an average of $42 an hour with benefits. The General's number could change in the coming weeks because its contract with the UAW is about to expire, and higher wages are among the major negotiating points.

10 electric cars we’re excited are coming soon

Thu, Sep 22 2022

If you were considering buying an electric vehicle a couple years ago, we wouldn't fault you for thinking your options were limited, both in terms of quantity and quality. You just might not have been able to find an electric car that would suit your needs, lifestyle or budget. With the newest generation of EVs that have launched in the past year or two, your options have changed — and improved Â— dramatically. If you still don't see an EV you like, just wait a little while longer. It won't take long. There are a whole lot more on the horizon, and the problem may soon be in narrowing down your options. To give you an example, here are 10 electric vehicles we're excited about that you'll be able to buy very soon, from GM, from Germany, from Japan and more. Some of these will be available by the end of the year, and all are expected to launch by the end of 2023. The Chevy trio: 2024 Blazer EV, Equinox EV and Silverado EV GM is stepping into the future with strong footing. Following high-end electric launches from GMC (Hummer EV) and Cadillac (Lyriq), Chevrolet is bringing three electric vehicles with familiar nameplates. The 2024 Chevy Blazer EV (above left) will offer a number of versions, starting with the 2LT and RS trims in the summer of 2023, followed by the 557-horsepower SS in the fall and the base 1LT in early 2024. The 2024 Chevy Equinox EV (above right) will go on sale in fall 2023 as a limited-edition model, with volume sales ramping up in 2024, with a base cost of Â“around $30,000.Â” For those who prefer a bed to a liftgate, the 2024 Chevy Silverado EV is an electric pickup that looks more like the old Chevy Avalanche than the current Silverado. The WT (work truck) trim launches in fall 2023, while the 664-horsepower RST will follow in 2024. Read more: 5 new electric car companies coming in 2023 and beyond 2023 BMW i7 BMW revealed the all-electric 2023 i7 luxury sedan alongside the gas-powered 7 Series. It should go on sale before the end of 2022. The i7 xDrive60 will be the only variant, with its two motors providing a total of 536 horsepower and 549 pound-feet of torque, and its battery expected to offer a range of about 300 miles. Just like its internal combustion counterpart, this full-size sedan wonÂ’t come cheap, with the i7 starting at $120,295. 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 Following the Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6 and Genesis GV60, the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 will be the fourth car using Hyundai GroupÂ’s E-GMP electric car architecture.
