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.

Recharge Wrap-up: Renault Zoe recall, Proterra buses log 2M miles

Fri, Mar 25 2016

Renault is recalling 10,649 examples of its Zoe electric car for potential brake hose failure. Cars built at the company's Flins factory between the Zoe's 2012 introduction and October 6, 2014 - a quarter of all Zoes ever built - are subject to the recall, though no accidents have been reported from rupturing brake lines. Recalled vehicles will have the brake hose positions inspected and, if need be, fixed. Read more from Reuters. Proposed legislation in Massachusetts would make the state even more EV friendly. While the state already encourages EV adoption with a $2,500 rebate incentive, the new bill would give battery electric vehicle drivers HOV lane access. Additionally it would set up a standard building code for EV chargers, and allow EV-only parking spaces. "With decreased gas prices, a 10 percent increase in vehicle miles traveled over the last 20 years, and a carpool rate below the national average, we must address personal vehicle use directly as part of our transportation emissions reduction strategy," says Rep. Frank Smizik. Read more from Teslarati. The New York Daily News has named the 2016 Chevrolet Volt as its "Green Machine of the Year." Seamless operation, peppiness, and a nice suite of equipment make it a top choice for the publication. "The 2016 Chevrolet Volt is all new, inside and out, and takes the plug-in hybrid segment to another level, thanks to its increased EV range, updated cabin, and more efficient gas-powered engine," writes Daily News Autos writer (and all-around good guy) Nick Kurczewski. Honorable mentions go to the Tesla Model S, BMW i3, Toyota Prius, and the hydrogen-powered Toyota Mirai. Read more from the Daily News, or at Clean Technica. Proterra electric buses have accumulated 2 million miles of revenue service. That equals 3,800 tons of carbon emissions that have been prevented and 420,000 gallons of fuel unburned. Proterra says it has 63 buses in service in 15 cities, and that it is ramping up production to meet growing demand. "This latest milestone exemplifies the economic, environmental and civic value of electric mass transit," says Proterra CEO Ryan Popple, "and demonstrates to the transit agencies that diesel - often viewed as a necessary evil - is no longer necessary."

Fernando Alonso sputters in his Indy test

Thu, Apr 25 2019

INDIANAPOLIS — Helio Castroneves and Fernando Alonso kept waiting around Wednesday. Now both international stars have some unfinished business to take care before qualifying for this year's Indianapolis 500. After enduring a rain delay of more than four hours then watching IndyCar regulars turn laps at Indianapolis Motor Speedway for two more hours, Castroneves and Alonso finally made it onto the track — but couldn't quite complete their refresher course. "Happy to be back here because this place is great," Alonso said after posting a fast lap of 218.690 mph — the slowest of the nine-driver evening session. "We were slow because the weather and some of the decisions people made on running time and things like that." He faced a bevy of problems in his first trip back to Indy since an impressive rookie performance in 2017. The rain delay forced organizers into rescheduling the one-day test, moving the rookie and refresher driver time from midday to the evening, cutting a significant amount of practice time for Alonso and the others. And when the green flag finally waved, Alonso's No. 66 car stalled in the warmup lane forcing the two-time Formula One champion from Spain to be towed back to pit lane where his crew worked feverishly to fix an electrical problem while sat in the cockpit. Eventually, he did get out and passed the first of two refresher phases. He'll have to wait until opening practice of the 500 on May 14 to pass the second. "It was frustrating for everyone because it was a brand new chassis and a brand new car, so we expected to run a lot," said Alonso, who drives for McLaren Racing. "If we could have had this at midday, you could work on your issues in the afternoon and then go out again." To put his day in perspective, Takuma Sato, the 2017 Indy winner from Japan, posted the fastest lap of the day at 226.993 mph and Colton Herta was the fastest rookie at 226.108. Castroneves, as usual, was good right from the start and posted a fast lap of 225.565. The three-time Indianapolis 500 winner looked smooth and fast on his favorite track and wasted no time passing the first phase. That much should have been expected from the popular Brazilian, who has recorded seven top-three finishes in 18 Indy starts and will make his season debut May 11 in the IndyCar Grand Prix. The weather and yellow flags prevented four of the five veterans — Castroneves, Alonso, Oriol Servia and JR Hildebrand — from passing phase two. Only Indy native Conor Daly made it.

Chevrolet SS previewed by Holden VF Commodore SS V show car

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

It won't be long before we see the official, production-ready Chevrolet SS sedan (hint: it will be revealed this weekend). And to tide us over until all of the official details are released about the US-spec version, we have this: the Holden VF Commodore SS V show car, a performance-oriented brother to the Calais V that debuted earlier in the week.
What we really want to know about the SS V is what lies underhood, but General Motors' Australian arm is keeping that under wraps until the Chevy model breaks cover this weekend. Nevertheless, it's obvious that the SS V will be a serious performer, with all sorts of aggressive cues driving that home on the car's exterior. Take a look at those 20-inch billet aluminum wheels that hide big Brembo brake calipers up front, the sculpted hood and front fascia, the wide air intakes with LED running lights and the quad exhaust pipes out back. It's like the Pontiac G8 GXP never even left us.
Inside, there's a sporty-looking interior with aluminum accents that mix in with black leather and suede surfaces, all tied together in the middle with an eight-inch MyLink touchscreen infotainment system. It looks great, and again, while we don't know anything regarding powertrain details, it makes us oh-so happy to see a manual shifter smack dab in the middle of the center console.
