Up for auction (OR MUSCLE CAR TRADES) is an attention grabbing 1932 Chevrolet Coupe Rat Rod. Let me begin by saying this is not a car for a kid or amateur, it will take some getting familiar with to operate this machine. Also, this is not a RUST FREE show car, it's about as rat as you can get for a rat rod. Its one hell of a build that looks and performs great!

This car is built on a 135" wheelbase and has a 6 " chop on an all steel body on a custom built frame.  This car has no pedals, it is totally controlled through hand controls which frees up space for your feet and legs.  It takes a little getting used to but 10 miles of driving and it's almost second nature.  If you are uncomfortable with this set up it wouldn't take much to convert it back to foot pedals. Also if you think you may be uncomfortable with this set up please don't bid or buy it.    

The drivetrain is a 1970's Chevy C10 250 6 Cylinder engine with a healthy cam. It all has approx. 28,000 miles.  It runs on 6 , YES 6 Synchronized 34mm Mikuni Snowmobile Carbs with water injection ( the bottle of J.D.!!) The transmission is out of a 1980"s CHEVY K30 Turbo 400 transmission (w/passing gear - button built into throttle control) 

Also used on the build is a 53' Mercury front drum brakes,  Chevy S-10 posi spool rear end,  Honda CRX front springs and  4 BRAND NEW TIRES!!!! - 16's in the front on ford spokes, 15's in the rear vacuum brakes -  with front chrome holding tank ( fire extinguisher tank) stops like a semi!!! HEAT!! - heater core from a 740 BMW ALL NEW WIRING - with 6 panel fuse block NEW belts, plugs, cap , rotor, wires, radiator (large aluminum that runs at 160 degrees constantly), thermostat, water pump, flex fan, front and rear shocks, steering stabilizer, fuel tank sending unit, new gauge pack all new switches - headlights are an old lamp pull chain!! It has a functional AM/FM/AUX player in the "glove box"

The car has adjustable timing (black lever on dash) which allows you to advance or retard the timing.  Its currently running well but could use a little fine tuning to run perfectly.  I am very confident in the braking system which is worth nothing, it really stops well.  The red handle on the steering wheel loosens up to allow quick and easy removal of the cut away steering wheel.  The speedo or odometer do not work but all other gauges are functional and the lights do work.

For lighting it has KC daylighters as driving lights, AIRCRAFT L.E.D. indicator lights, turn signals postal jeep front axle with king pins postal jeep steering box postal jeep master cylinder 1940's boat throttle used as gear shifter stainless boat prop shaft from left to right for all linkages interior for all hand controls - brake and throttle with quick release steering wheel THE CAR COMES WITH A BILL OF SALE AND NEW HAMPSHIRE STATE VIN VERIFICATION , which in NY (the toughest state around with DMV ) accepts with no problem to register.  There shouldn't be any issue getting this car titled in any state.

Opel pulls out of Russia, GM to focus on Cadillac, 'iconic' Chevys

Wed, Mar 18 2015

General Motors is going to realign its priorities in the struggling Russian marketplace, withdrawing its Opel brand and pulling out mainstream Chevrolet models. Instead, the General will take aim at Russia's well-established oligarchy, pushing Cadillac as well as "iconic" Chevrolet models, like the Corvette, Camaro and Tahoe. "This change in our business model in Russia is part of our global strategy to ensure long-term sustainability in markets where we operate," GM president Dan Ammann said in a statement. "This decision avoids significant investment into a market that has very challenging long-term prospects." Russian customers interested in an Opel or mainstream Chevys like the Spark, Aveo (the US market Sonic), Cobalt (shown above), Cruze, Orlando and the like have until December to snap up a car before the brands are pulled. "We do not have the appropriate localization level for important vehicles built in Russia and the market environment does not justify a major investment to further localize." Opel Group CEO Karl-Thomas Neumann said. GM will continue to offer service to customers in Russia. "We can assure our customers that we will continue to provide warranty, parts and services for their Chevrolet and Opel vehicles," Neumann said. Beyond realigning its brands in Russia, GM also announced that it would also be idling the company's factory in the country's second-largest city, St. Petersburg. This is the second time the St. Petersburg factory has been in the news – GM announced that it'd be idled for roughly two months back in February. Scroll down for the official press release from GM. GM to Change Business Model in Russia 2015-03-18 Focus on Cadillac and iconic Chevrolet vehicles Wind down Opel brand and sale of mainstream Chevrolet cars Idle GM Auto manufacturing facility in St. Petersburg Part of GM's strategy to ensure long-term sustainability in global markets DETROIT – General Motors today announced plans to change its business model in Russia. GM will focus on the premium segment of the Russian market with Cadillac and U.S.-built iconic Chevrolet products such as the Corvette, Camaro and Tahoe. The Chevrolet brand will minimize its presence in Russia and the Opel brand will leave the market by December 2015. "This change in our business model in Russia is part of our global strategy to ensure long-term sustainability in markets where we operate," said GM President Dan Ammann.

Nissan Leaf keeps plug-in vehicle sales crown for 6th straight month

Thu, May 1 2014

And Nissan makes it 14 in a row. For the 14th straight month, the all-electric Leaf has had "record sales," according to Nissan's marketing team. What that means is that for that particular month (in this case, April) no matter what year you look at, the car sold more than it ever did before. For April 2014, the 2,088 Leafs sold represents a 7.8-percent increase from 2013. Nissan's director of EV sales and marketing, Toby Perry, said in a statement that the "new market" of Cincinnati made the top 25 list for Leaf sales areas in April, so the car's popularity continues to ebb and flow across the US. Over at Chevy, the Volt sold 1,548 units in April, reaching a year-to-date total of 5,154. The Leaf is outpacing that with 7,272 YTD sales. In 2013, the Volt outsold the Leaf by about 500 vehicles, but Leaf sales are up 33 percent year-over-year while Volt is down 7.1 percent. The Leaf has also outsold the Volt for six straight months. But we're excited for every eco-car sale, and that's why we'll have our monthly detailed write-up of the rest of the plug-ins, hybrids and diesel vehicles available soon. Until then, discuss.

First 2016 Chevy Volt commercial rocks us to sleep

Fri, Jan 30 2015

The 2016 Chevrolet Volt, with its thorough restyling and increased all-electric range, is an exciting evolution of Chevy's groundbreaking plug-in hybrid, so it's only fitting that the commercial campaign to sell it to the masses also be engaging and vibrant. Well, the first ad has just been officially released and it rocks... us to sleep. Now, we get that General Motors didn't want to repeat past Volt-commercial mistakes. No one wants to see dogs licking feet or dumb (and weirdly horny) aliens again. Nor would it be smart to slam all-electric vehicles, since it now sells the Spark EV and has just revealed its 200-mile Bolt concept. So, what does that leave? How about a mostly computer-generated spot that relies on cliche images and an upbeat synthetic soundtrack to communicate that the Volt is now as boring as other four-door appliances? An intro, featuring a lightly-bearded gentleman peering at his tablet through designer glasses launches us into the action as the Volt makes its way across a city bridge, then a curvaceous country road. Chevrolet doesn't include voiceover to inform you that the new Volt has a 50-mile battery-only range. There's no mention of its gas mileage once its electric charge is depleted – items that just might be of importance to hybrid buyers. The ad also makes no attempt at establishing an emotional connection, either through drama or comedy. There are, however, lots of fast cuts of the new, normalized interior, including a two-second detail shot featuring the windshield wiper switch. We imagine that this is only the first in a series of spots that will tell the Volt story and motivate potential buyers to run down to their local dealer, hopefully the next spots will be more interesting and informative.
