1957 CHEVROLET! TONS OF WORK ALREADY COMPLETED! FRESHLY REBUILT 454, 700R TRANSMISSION, NEWLY UPHOLSTERED SEATS, FOUR WHEEL DISC BRAKES, RECHROMED BUMPER (mid section), BELAIR DASH, BRAND NEW SET OF 17" CUSTOM WHEELS AND TIRES! VERY COMPLETE & READY TO BE FINISHED! BE READY FOR SPRING CRUISING! Here it is, your early Christmas present! This 1957 Chevy has had a tremendous amount of work done to it. It is very complete and comes with a whole lot of goodies. In my opinion, there is no better way to buy them than when they are at this point. Right after someone gets ambitious and spends all of the money on the vital aspects (big ticket items) and then sells it off at a fraction of what they have in to it. So if you're looking for a steal, this is it. Body: The external sheet metal on the Chevy is actually very solid. The rear sill, cowl, trunk lid, hood, roof, fenders, top sides of the quarters, doors, everything is very solid. The rockers along with a couple of minor spots within the quarters are about the only spots that will require some attention. They are not terrible and I definitely would not go to the extent of replacing them. With a little sheet metal work, they would be good to go. The firewall in these Tri-Fives have to be modified in order to fit a big block which was done on this 57. So the mid section of the firewall still needs replaced. The floors as well as the trunk will also need replaced. The frame underneath the Chevy is solid. The previous owner was working to do away with the side moldings/trim but he got as far as sealing up the passenger side and that was it. With that, the side trim is about the only trim that I am missing. The remaining trim does come with the car. The bumpers are in relatively good shape. The previous owner sent off the mid sections of the front bumper and had them rechromed. Those pieces are still packaged up and are in excellent shape. The 454 that is within the Chevy was mounted up professionally as you will see within the photos located below. All of the glass (with the exception of the drivers side door and passenger side door glass) is in good shape. The 17" wheels and tires that are on the Chevy are brand new. I had purchased them for another vehicle and they have roughly about ten miles on them. They are wrapped in brand new Nitto tires. They've been mounted and balanced. I have about $1,800 invested in them and I will make a considerable adjustment in price if someone decides that they would rather not have them. Engine & Mechanical: The 454 that is within the Chevy has been completely rebuilt. I do have a four barrel carburetor that goes with the Chevy but unfortunately I did not have it on hand to take photos of it. The 700R transmission was also in excellent working order when it was pulled. The Chevy has front disc brakes and included with the sale, I will be giving a ten bolt posi rear end with a disc brake setup on it. This is out of an early 90's Z28 and has been measured to insure that it will fit. Interior: The front buckets and back seat have both been refoamed and reupholstered. They were done professionally to the tune of about 2k dollars. The Chevy also has a Belair dash which is installed. The door panels within the Chevy are in decent shape. So here is that rare opportunity to own one of the most desirable Chevrolets that were ever manufactured. Much of the heavy work has been completed and with nearly 20k invested, someone is going to get a phenomenal deal while getting a huge head start. I can't see this Chevy taking more than thirty days to complete. So reward yourself this Christmas and get ready to REALLY enjoy Spring! I will be evaluating all reasonable offers and I will in fact sell the Chevy early as we do have it for sale "locally". My goal here is to sell the Chevy. I strongly encourage anyone who is interested to please call or email to schedule a time to come check it out. I would also like to add that I am usually on the phone from 7 AM until about 12 AM so you are always welcome to call and if I do not answer, just leave a message and I will return your call immediately. I know from my own experience with purchasing cars online, most of the time it is very difficult to get someone on the phone and to obtain the information you need. So I try to always stay on top of emails and phone calls. We do have a clear title for this 57. As always, good luck and happy bidding! Thanks, Shawn (816) 308-0351 I also have several other highly collectible automobiles on eBay right now! Please feel free to check them out by clicking here! Thank you!

Chevy teases next-gen Volt at fan event in LA
Thu, Nov 20 2014Barely two months before its planned debut at the 2015 North American International Auto Show, Chevrolet has released yet another batch of teaser images of its second-generation Volt. Unlike the first image, though, which just showed the car's rear badge, there's a lot more to this quartet of shots. The first three images show off the nose of the next-gen model and come from a fan event in Los Angeles. What we can see is a sleeker front end, with an evolution of the silver grille inserts previously seen on the original Volt and Spark EV. Gone is the current car's split upper grille, in favor of a more conventional arrangement. The sharper, more angular headlights are also an evolution of the lamps seen on the current Volt. Chevrolet also took the opportunity to announce a new location-based charging system that uses GPS to adjust the vehicle's charge settings, including the charge level, while also announcing that the next-gen car will feature more intuitive charge indicators that will be better able to inform owners of their car's charging level. The tech will mean that the Volt 'knows' when it is parked at home, and can thus automatically optimize charging for off-peak times, and so on. Take a look at the teaser images at the top of the page, and then head below for Chevy's press release announcing the new features. Next-Gen Chevy Volt Offers More User-Friendly Charging 2014-11-20 GPS makes charging more convenient Portable charger is easier to access Intuitive visual cues show charge status DETROIT – If there's one thing Chevrolet Volt owners love about their cars, it's being able to recharge the battery easily. Evidence of that is a U.S. Department of Energy study that shows more than 80 percent of all trips by Volt owners did not use the range extender. Chevrolet has made the charging system in the next-generation Volt even easier for customers to recharge the battery – and to check the charge status. The next-generation Volt debuts in January at the North American International Auto Show. "Chevrolet used the real-world experiences of today's Volt owners to make the charging process simpler and more convenient in the next-generation Volt," said Andrew Farah, chief engineer for the Volt.
The 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is for drivers who value performance above all else
Sat, 16 Feb 2013The car you see above is the 2014 Chevrolet SS, and it's important both because it is the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from Chevy in 17 years, and because it will be the nameplate the brand uses on NASCAR tracks all across the country starting this year.
Though it wears a name as American as baseball and apple pie, the machine was actually designed and built in Australia, sharing most of its parts with the brand-new VF-model Holden Commodore. That said, the basic chassis bits are shared with other Chevrolet models like the Camaro and Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle.
While Chevrolet is happy to sell a Malibu or Impala to anyone looking for a mainstream family sedan, but the SS is reserved for buyers interested first and foremost in performance. Most sedans sold these days are front-wheel drive, which is great for everyday driving and when the weather goes bad, but the SS is instead a rear-wheel-drive vehicle aimed at enthusiasts who love to drive and who prefer speed and performance above all else.
Sinkhole Opens Up In National Corvette Museum, Swallows Eight Cars
Wed, Feb 12 2014More cars are being moved inside the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Ky. to avoid falling down the same sinkhole that swallowed eight classic sports cars early this morning, Autoblog reported. Museum officials said the hole was discovered when motion sensors activated around 5:45 a.m. The rescue mission can be viewed on the museum's live feed cameras, which weren't working after the sinkhole emerged. A 1993 ZR-1 Spyder and a 2009 ZR1 "Blue Devil," both on loan from General Motors, were among the cars that fell into the sinkhole. The museum owned the other affected Corvettes, which included a 1963 Corvette, a 1984 PPG Pace Car and the 1 millionth Corvette ever produced. The state of the cars at the bottom of the hole isn't known, but trial lawyer and sinkhole expert Ted Corless said the cars may be a total loss for the museum and GM. "Most states, including Kentucky, exclude damage caused by sinkhole activity," he said. "There will be, in all likelihood, a claim made, but a lot of policies would specifically exclude these kinds of damages." Corless has 15 years experience dealing with sinkholes. He said that typically neither the building, nor the cars themselves are protected under their insurance policies. "I would have to say, more likely then not, they're going to have an uninsured loss measured in the hundreds of thousands of dollars." The museum is closed Wednesday while a structural engineer assesses the damage.
