My 59 chevy is my absolute everyday car. Its a reliable fun car to drive everyday. living in Texas the temp easily gets in the 100's all the time. This car doesnt over heat and runs great all the time. This is the Biscayne model of the 59. It came with vinyl floors and manuel windows. This was an upgraded model that originally had the 235L6 with 3 on the tree and the rare Overdrive. I drove it this way for a while, then one buddy drives it and poof.... Motor was cooked. So now it has a SBC 350 V8 and a 700R4 as its powerhouse. This is a perfect set up for daily highway use. I live on a toll road and cruise 80mph to and from work every day. Shifter was moved to the floor with a nice B&M shifter. I wanted this car so my family and I could all ride together. So i had brackets for my kids car seats installed in the rear bench, so they can just click into place. All floors are solid and rear bench has minor tear from age. front seat is fine. EVERYTHING IS ORIGINAL inside. Because its a daily i had to have my tunes. I installed a Pioneer CD player with Bluetooth and ipod controls in the glovebox with speakers hidden under the dash and under the rear deck. Original radio still works but speaker is disconnected. I installed an IR repeater under the dash (hidden as well) so the glovebox doesnt have to be open to control the radio.

Installed a basic 2way paging alarm for security purposes. It has a static drop to the whole car. After tons of research about the X frames these cars were built on, most people recommended not buying the lowering springs, but cutting coils off originals. So coils were cut, with new shocks all the way around. Car floats down the highway. Driveshaft is a 2 piece set up and the carrier bearing is a beefy Billet heavy duty one. new brakes and lines. New Gas tank, All gauges work. Still has drums all the way around but stops great. Gets a whole lot of attention, and tons of remember when stories too. I had the dash striped at a show with colors to best match the paint. Its not really a show car in the condition it is now, but they sure do love it. This car didnt come with A/C but did however come with a strong factory fan and heater/defrost. Wipers work great as well. As a daily ive been in the cold the rain and hot summer days, which surprisingly this thing gets tons of air flow in the car even with the windows rolled up.

Dent on passenger fender when i got it and i never got it fixed. All glass is good except for drivers window has a crack but still solid. I was shocked at how easy it is to find parts for these cars. Not expensive at all.

15" wheels all around and with Yokohama Vulcanized white walls. Hush flow exhaust gives it that nice V8 rumble but isnt obnoxious for your passengers.

I HAVE TRIED TO EXPLAIN THIS CAR THE BEST THAT I CAN IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS PLEASE MESSAGE ME. I HAVE A VIDEO WALK AROUND AND TONS OF PICTURES AT YOUR REQUEST.

LETS NOT FORGET ABOUT THOSE FINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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.

2015 Chevy Colorado takes Motor Trend Truck of the Year calipers [w/videos]

Wed, Dec 3 2014

The final winner of Motor Trend's prestigious Golden Calipers has been named, with the 2015 Chevrolet Colorado taking the title of 2015 Truck of the Year, likely shocking those who thought Ford's all-aluminum, next-generation F-150 would take the crown. But win the Colorado did, beating not only the new Ford, but two other brutish Blue Ovals in the F-450 and Transit. The midsize pickup also bested its brethren from General Motors, beating the heavy-duty Chevy Silverado 3500, GMC Sierra Denali 2500 and the GMC Canyon, the Colorado's fraternal twin. After an unprecedented two-year stint with the Golden Calipers, Ram sat this year's awards out. Most impressive about the Colorado's victory isn't that it simply beat the US market's other trucks, it did so with a unanimous vote. Praise from MT's editors focused on the trucklet's price, spacious interior, fit and finish and performance. Former Autoblog staffer Jonny Lieberman called the Colorado's steering the best he'd "ever experienced on any truck, full stop," in MT's awards article. "After days of testing, hundreds of miles on the road, and our most rigorous truck testing program to date, our editors unanimously selected the Chevy Colorado as our 2015 Truck of the Year," said MT boss Edward Loh. "Colorado is a smart, capable, and refreshingly honest truck that makes a strong value and efficiency statement. It's perfectly sized and suited for the needs of many of today's truck users." The Colorado joins the 2015 Volkswagen Golf and 2015 Honda CR-V among Motor Trend 2015 award winners.
