This is an original 1954 Chevrolet Belair Sport Coupe. I have a clear title in my name.  The car has not been registered or driven since 1973. The term "barn fresh" is worn out, but this Two Door Hardtop Sport Coupe was parked in a Utah carport for many years, and to call it carport fresh seems sappy.  I drained the oil, changed the spark plugs, replaced the fuel pump, hooked up an auxiliary gas tank, put in a new six volt battery, and she fired right up.  The engine sound good with no unusual noise and the car shifts smoothly.  The car is very original.  The paint is original, but oxidized and there is rust in the rockers and lower rear fenders. The original interior is serviceable, but not perfect.  All the glass is good and the windows roll up and down. The lights, horn, and brake lights work as they should. The interior chrome is in very good condition.  Please look closely at all of the photos.  I want to be sure the new owner knows exactly what they are buying.  My home phone, which is still attached to my kitchen wall, is (801) 745-0599.  My name is Bob and I will gladly answer any questions you have about the car.  The floors are dry and solid and the truck is good with a small rust problem and the passengers side. The spare tire well is good the the original spare tire is still in the trunk.  The car originally had a "Powerglide" transmission, but several years ago the Powerglide was replaced with a 1954 CHevrolet three speed manual transmission.  The Powerglide logo badge is still on the trunk lid. The reserve is very low and well under the cars value.  Good luck bidding.


As I mentioned, I want the new owner to know what they are getting.  With this in mind, I will outline the negative aspects of the car. 1. There are rust problems with the rockers on both sides and the rear lower section of the fenders are also rusted.  The frame and floors are good. There are aftermarket panels designed to correct the rust problems and a catalog comes with the car. 2. The brakes need attention. The brake master cylinder was dry after years of sitting and I think some of the wheel cylinders will need attention. 3. The interior is complete and not torn up. The front seat has a tear and the fabric is dry.  4. The gas tank has bad gas and it should be dropped and cleaned before filling it with fresh gas. This is a nice, original, Chevrolet Sport Coupe and an easy restoration project. Again, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to give me a call.

If you have less than 10 positive feedbacks in your Ebay feedback score, please call or email me before you bid.  I want this to be a good, straightforward, auction.  I don't want to stop the auction early. Please bid with confidence and give this original Chevrolet a good home. A $250.00 deposit is required within 24 hours of the auction closing.

Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting?

GM learning from current Chevy Volt owners as it works on next-gen model

Tue, Sep 16 2014

Details of the second-generation Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in hybrid are coming in at a trickle, and the latest is that the 2016 model-year Volt will be improved in all meaningful areas, including performance and all-electric range, says General Motors powertrain director Larry Nitz. 60 percent of Volt customers only charge using a standard 110 outlet. Nitz was speaking to Autoline After Hours about the current and future Volt. He said that GM has been tracking Volt driving habits and found that about two-thirds of the Volts' collective miles are driven in electric mode, and that 81 percent of all Volt trips were done in pure EV mode. Additionally, Volt drivers plug the car in 10 times each week, on average. Nitz also said 82 percent of the Volt's commuting miles are coming from the plug instead of the gas tank. Oh, and 60 percent of Volt customers only charge using a standard 110 outlet. Last month, GM released a teaser shot of the 2016 Volt (above) and said the car would make its worldwide debut at the 2015 North American International Auto Show next January. Earlier this year, the Volt was reported to be getting a new chassis for the upcoming version. The Volt could use a bit of new life. Through August, Volt sales were down 12 percent from a year earlier to 13,146 units, and sales plunged 25 percent alone. That compares unfavorably to the Nissan Leaf battery-electric vehicle, whose 2014 sales have jumped 34 percent to almost 19,000 units. You can see Nitz dish the goods in the video below (Volt comments start at around minute 15). You will also notice AutoblogGreen contributor Gary Witzenburg talk about his history with the EV1 and share his take on the Volt. This content is hosted by a third party.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
