You are looking at an incredible 1956 Chevy Bel Air 2 door sedan. This car has it's original 265 V8 engine and a 3 speed manual transmission with shift on the column. The engine is numbers matching, and I have the original paperwork to prove it. This car has not been restored! It is in amazing original condition! She is Sierra Gold and Adobe Beige, and these are the original colors. I was lucky enough to find the car in Franklin Square, NY last year. I had the car appraised by a specialist, and he was amazed by the condition of the car. He believes it to be all original, except he said that the front fenders look like they have been re-sprayed many years ago. I have a full documented report from the appraiser, and I will give it to the new owner. The car has all of it's original equipment, and everything works, except for the clock in the dash. Even the AM tube radio works! It has the dealer installed window washer squirters, the remote spot light, and the optional rubber floor mats. The seats and armrests are showing some wear, please see the pics. This car runs and drives extremely well. I do drive it and enjoy it. The motor starts right up, and runs super smooth. The clutch feels perfect, and the transmissin shifts great. The 4 wheel drum brakes work well, considering they are manual drums!
The car has been extremely well kept over the years. The 2 previous owners had the car in climate controled garages. The car was undercoated, and I believe that helped the car stay so nice. All body panels look to be 100% original. The floor pans and inner and outer rockers look great, with zero rust. The body mounts look great too. Even the bottoms of the doors have no rust, it is just amazing how clean this car still is. The paint is still nice, some of the gold is thin in spots, but it has the right to be, it is 57 years old. The stainless trim is in amazing shape, and looks great. The chrome is nice, but is a little dull in spots. The doors open and close perfectly, with zero effort. All of the windows roll down properly also. The exhaust system was replaced recently, as well as the front engine mounts, and the idler arm. It also has a modern battery in it. The 265 V8 has a 2 barrel carb, and single exhaust.
I bought this car with every intension of making it into a pro-touring resto mod with an LS-1, a 6-speed, big wheels, and 4 wheel disc brakes. I now realize that this car is way too nice and too important to ever modify it. It really is special. The appraiser yelled at me, and told me that the car is a time capsule, and should be stored in a climate controled bubble, and not driven. I am not willing to do that, so I am looking to move on, but I want the car to go to a good home. I do know that the current trend in the collector car hobby is about un-restored survivor cars, so I am sure someone will really apreciate this old girl. Please look at the pics. This car is not perfect, it is NOT restored, it is 57 years old, and in amazing shape for it's age. I feel that you should come and stand in front of the car, before you make any opinions about it. I will be happy to show anyone the car, if you are a serious buyer.

Which electric cars can charge at a Tesla Supercharger?
Sun, Jul 9 2023The difference between Tesla charging and non-Tesla charging. Electrify America; Tesla Tesla's advantage has long been its charging technology and Supercharger network. Now, more and more automakers are switching to Tesla's charging tech. But there are a few things non-Tesla drivers need to know about charging at a Tesla station. A lot has hit the news cycle in recent months with regard to electric car drivers and where they can and can't plug in. The key factor in all of that? Whether automakers switched to Tesla's charging standard. More car companies are shifting to Tesla's charging tech in the hopes of boosting their customers' confidence in going electric. Here's what it boils down to: If you currently drive a Tesla, you can keep charging at Tesla charging locations, which use the company's North American Charging Standard (NACS), which has long served it well. The chargers are thinner, more lightweight and easier to wrangle than other brands. If you currently drive a non-Tesla EV, you have to charge at a non-Tesla charging station like that of Electrify America or EVgo — which use the Combined Charging System (CCS) — unless you stumble upon a Tesla charger already equipped with the Magic Dock adapter. For years, CCS tech dominated EVs from everyone but Tesla. Starting next year, if you drive a non-Tesla EV (from the automakers that have announced they'll make the switch), you'll be able to charge at all Supercharger locations with an adapter. And by 2025, EVs from some automakers won't even need an adaptor. Here's how to charge up, depending on which EV you have: Ford 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E. Tim Levin/Insider Ford was the earliest traditional automaker to team up with Tesla for its charging tech. Current Ford EV owners — those driving a Ford electric vehicle already fitted with a CCS port — will be able to use a Tesla-developed adapter to access Tesla Superchargers starting in the spring. That means that, if you own a Mustang Mach-E or Ford F-150 Lightning, you will need the adapter in order to use a Tesla station come 2024. But Ford will equip its future EVs with the NACS port starting in 2025 — eliminating the need for any adapter. Owners of new Ford EVs will be able to pull into a Supercharger station and juice up, no problem. General Motors Cadillac Lyriq. Cadillac GM will also allow its EV drivers to plug into Tesla stations.
GM files for Z71 Trail Boss trademark
Mon, Jan 26 2015Try as they might to keep their plans a secret, automakers have their hands tipped through a variety of methods – be they through loose lips, spy shots or patent and trademark applications. That's how we know, in this instance, that General Motors is working on (or at least considering) an off-road machine wearing the name Z71 Trail Boss – the name which our compatriots at AutoGuide.com tell us that GM has registered for use on light-duty trucks. Now if that alphanumeric designator sounds familiar, it should. GM has long used it to designate the off-road packages on many of its body-on-frame trucks from Chevy and GMC. These days you can order a Z71 package on the Chevy Colorado, Silverado, Tahoe and Suburban and on the GMC Canyon, Sierra and Yukon. The package typically includes components like a beefed-up suspension bits, high-capacity air cleaner and underbody protection plates. The Trail Boss designator would seem to suggest something further reaching than a suspension package, though. Just what it would entail we don't know; minds immediately start running toward Chevy or GMC going after the Ford F-150 Raptor, but we'll likely be looking at something closer to the Trailhawk packages Jeep offers on the likes of the Renegade and Cherokee.

Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16
Wed, 06 Feb 2013The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.
