This is a NO RESERVE listing. 1954 Chevrolet 210 / Bel Air Deluxe Sedan Chevy Two-Ten 235 Beautiful! Straight out of the sock hops, drive-ins, American Graffiti, and Back to the Future comes this lovingly restored 1954 Chevrolet Two-Ten. It has a correct-era 235 cu in inline-6 with a 3-speed manual transmission on the column. This car is a beauty, a looker, and a stunner. The gorgeous cherry red paint and bright shiny chrome make this car gleam in the sunshine. Hopefully you can see that in the photos. Overall the paint is excellent. This is a professional-grade restoration-quality paint job done to a very high standard. The chrome is bright and shiny but does have some pitting here and there. The one exception is the wheels which are mirror-shiny and in perfect shape. The interior is nice as well. The dash has been repainted in the restoration and looks fantastic. The seats have been recovered, although with a non-original fabric. The original fabric remains beneath. The headliner is new and in spotless condition. The carpets have been replaced with all-weather carpeting. Mechanically this car is ready to cruise. I just installed a new set of spark plugs and wires and it fires up easily! I have taken it on several multi-hour trips recently and it is a true joy to drive. This classic is a one-car car show wherever you go. If you don't like people coming up and complementing the car and asking questions this car isn't for you. The motor does not smoke. It idles nicely and drives even better. The brakes are surprisingly good for a car of this vintage. I just had a wheel cylinder replaced. They are manual brakes so some adjustment in driving style is necessary. It shifts through the gears nicely and will cruise along at 60 all day long. The tires are nearly new. The exhaust is in good shape and even features some glass-packs. It has a nice throaty sound thats not too noisy. The ride is cushy and comfortable. Load this beauty up with some friends and take it out for ice cream. The underside is in very good shape. The frame is solid as heck. The negatives: 4 of the side windows have hairline cracks in them. I priced these out to between $35-$47 per window. They still keep the rain out and go up and down just fine. The paint, as nice as it is, does have some flaws there are a few scratches and dings and a few tiny bubbles. There are some small spots of missing clear that do not affect the overall shine. The original AM radio does not work. Big surprise I know. There is a modern radio/cd player that works just fine installed under the dash. The blower motor does not work, but the ram-air vents keep the air circulating. There is a small oil drip, probably coming from the oil pan gasket. The clutch does exhibit some very minor chattering. The title reads miles in excess of mechanical limits but is otherwise clear. I did some further research into the exact model of the car because the title says it is a Bel Air. It appears that in 1954 the difference between the 150, 210, and Bel Air was largely the exterior horizontal trim strip and accompanying badges. Since this car has had those deleted in the restoration process it makes little difference at this point. For the Chevy purists the build code is 1069w which should correspond to the two-ten. For the non-purists the title says Bel Air and go with that. Phone calls are preferred. Charlie (440) 339 5388 I cannot guarantee that I know about every single problem/imperfection that this car has. I have done my best to give you a good sense of the car, beyond that it is your responsibility to come look at the car for yourself. Please call me to make an appointment to see the car. Please also be aware that more imperfections can be found in person than from photos. Expect this. If you plan to drive the car a long distance away be advised that you do so at your own financial risk. Plan on having to spend some money on upgrades and maintenance. Overall please be realistic. This is an old car and we live in an imperfect world. |

Motor Trend wheels the 2015 Corvette Z06
Tue, Nov 25 2014The new Chevrolet Corvette Z06 is capable of some absolutely wild metrics. Want proof? Carlos Lago from Motor Trend is here to break it all down. 60 miles per hour? 3.2 seconds. 60 to 0? 91 feet. Lateral acceleration? A staggering 1.16g, a figure that is the highest MT has ever recorded for a vehicle that isn't a race car. It's an utterly astonishing piece of work, this Z06, and just when you think it can't possibly get any more impressive, Randy Pobst hustles an auto-equipped Z06 around Road Atlanta in just 1:30. Aside from the eight-speed auto, Pobst's Z06 had the most aggressive aerodynamic package, the so-called Stage III. Take a look at the 650-horsepower Z06 in Motor Trend's latest video.
800k car names trademarked globally, suddenly alphanumerics seem reasonable
Tue, 01 Oct 2013What's in a name? This cliched phrase probably gets tossed out at every marketing meeting that happens when a new car gets its nomenclature. We know the answer, though: everything. The name of a car has all the potential to make or break it with fickle customers that are more conscious than ever about what their purchases say about them.
That's giving headaches to marketing folks across the automotive industry. "It's tough. In 1985 there were about 75,000 names trademarked in the automotive space. Today there are 800,000," Chevrolet's head of marketing, Russ Clark, told Automotive News. Infiniti's president, Johan de Nysschen, echoed Clark's sentiment, saying, "The truth of the matter is, across the world, there is hardly a name or a letter that hasn't already been claimed by one car manufacturer or another. You can go through the alphabet - A, B, C and so forth - and you will quickly see that almost all available letters are taken."
What has that left automakers to do? Get creative. In the case of Infiniti, it made the controversial move to bring all of its cars' names into a new scheme, classifying them as Q#0 for cars and QX#0 for SUVs and crossovers. So the Infiniti G, which was available as the G25 and G37, is now the Q50. The FX37 and FX50 are now the QX70.
GM to idle car production at five factories as Americans continue CUV love affair
Mon, Dec 19 2016In case you needed another reminder that Americans have fallen out of love with sedans, General Motors today announced plans to idle five factories in January in a bid to cut its inventory to 70 days. Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly ( Buick LaCrosse, Cadillac CT6, Chevrolet Volt and Impala) and Fairfax Assembly in Kansas ( Chevy Malibu) will stop production for three weeks. Lansing Grand River ( Cadillac ATS and CTS, and Chevy Camaro) is going down for two weeks, while Lordstown, OH ( Chevy Cruze) and Bowling Green, KY ( Chevy Corvette) will go idle for a week each, Automotive News reports. GM's shutdown reflects a broader problem with the company's supply – at 847,000 vehicles, the company's supply increased unsteadily from a low of 629,000 units in January of 2016. That's more than a 25 percent increase in the past year. Citing information from Autodata, The Detroit News reports that at the end of November, GM had a 168-day supply of LaCrosses, 177 days' worth of Camaro, 170 days of Corvette, 121 days for Cruze, 119 days for ATS, 132 days for CTS, and 110 days of CT6. Meanwhile, inventory of the company's more popular vehicles is actually below the professionally accepted 60- to 70-day supply, The News reports. The Trax, Colorado pickup, and GM's full-size SUVs are sitting below 50 days and experiencing year-over-year sales increases. GM needs a rethink of its inventory levels, which is something that's apparently coming. "We're going to be responsible in managing our inventory levels," GM spokesman Jim Cain told The News. Another unnamed spokesman told Automotive News the company's day-to-day supplies would "fluctuate before moderating at year-end." But at least one analyst thinks this won't be the last time Detroit needs to stop production to level things out. "Incentives are elevated, residuals are declining, and rates are rising," Brian Johnson, an analyst with Barclays, told The News. "And while GM in particular may benefit in the months ahead from new product launches, it's important to recognize that GM's inventory is elevated at the moment, and it wouldn't surprise us if they need to announce another production cut – which could pressure the stock."
