1957 Chevy Belair 2 Door Hardtop Barn Find Project Gasser Street Hot Rat Rod on 2040-cars
Irvington, Alabama, United States
1957 Chevy Belair 2 Door hardtop, This is a factory Larkspur Blue with Silver Vinyl with Black and Silver Pattern cloth interior. Let me start out by saying that this was someone else's project that they started along time ago and got part of the way into it and stopped and the car got put up into storage, and has been their ever since, till I got the car. The car is really straight and pretty solid as well. Their is rust but its easily fixed rust that's in some of the normal spots that you can buy patch panels for if you so choose. Just about everything for the car is either inside the car or in the trunk. I have not laid everything out and inventoried it, but just going throw the stuff, it appears to be all their, their maybe something small missing, but the large stuff is here. I know all the dash components is in the trunk in boxes. The steering wheel and column is also in their, the front and rear seats are in the car. The original door panels are also in the trunk. From what I can tell, all the major chrome and trim pieces are here and inside the car. The frame of the car has already been blasted and primed. and the original front suspension pieces are in the trunk as well blasted and primed. The car has another set of suspension pieces bolted all up to the front to make it roll around. The motor and trans that you see pictured is a setup that I bought from a friend of mine and was planning to put in the car to put the car back to as close to original as possible. The motor itself is a 1957 power pack motor, and the trans is a power glide automatic. The motor and transmission came out of a 1957 Nomad that was nut and bolt restored and was a AACA judged car. My friend bought the car and drove the car around to a few shows and never really liked how the original car drove, so he took the drivetrain out and the suspension and upgraded the car to a pro touring car that he could enjoy. and that's how I came about the motor. I know that its a good motor and transmission and came out of a running and driving car. The car itself is a factory V8 car and that's why I choose this motor to go in it. This is a great project for someone to finish, that's going to make someone a great car. Very good car to start out with, specially one that is just about complete. The car is for sale locally and is subject to be taken off Ebay if sold. The car is also sold as is with no warranty. A 25% deposit is due within 3 days of the auctions end and the balance within 7 more when the car is to be picked up or arrangements are made for the car to be shipped. If you have any questions about the car, please fill free to ask and I will gladly answer them to the best of my ability. Thanks and God Bless Charlie 251-751-7530 |

Use this PowerPoint when convincing your spouse to let you buy a Corvette
Thu, 14 Feb 2013When you are not the one in charge of the purse strings, creativity is a must when trying to get the string-holder to bankroll that next shiny object you just can't live without.
When I was a kid, I decided that life wasn't worth living if it weren't in pursuit of owning a GMC Typhoon. My 12-year-old self crafted a fiscal strategy that, when combined with my offer of a 49-percent share of ownership in the car in return for my parents' contribution of 80-percent of the purchase price, would see me behind the wheel of a Typhoon by the time I hit college. They walked away from the negotiating table and, the economic climate of the 8th grade being what it was at the time, another partner wasn't found before the Typhoon was discontinued.
Roy El-Rayes, however, has succeeded where 12-year-old me failed, and he did it by using the sort of professionalism that only a PowerPoint presentation can provide, along with some humor and bold-faced flattery.
Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works
Fri, 22 Mar 2013When it comes to technology used in racecars, we generally expect it to trickle down to production cars, not the other way around. Well, Pratt & Miller has developed a new rear-facing radar that operates in a similar fashion to what we're used to in modern blind spot detection systems, only it is also capable of tracking cars as they approach and relaying vital information to the driver via a large display screen.
The innovative radar system debuted at last weekend's 12 Hours of Sebring for Corvette Racing, and this system makes perfect sense for endurance races like this since the cars sometimes have to drive through the night and in poor weather conditions.
The radar can detect cars even with poor visibility, and uses easy-to-distinguish symbols for the driver to identify.
Weekly Recap: Chevy and Alfa plot comeback strategies
Sat, Jun 27 2015Chevrolet and Alfa Romeo were two of the 20th Century's most iconic automotive brands. Chevy embodied America's post-war power and confidence. Alfa was the definition of the stylish Italian sports car. They reached halcyon heights in the 1950s and '60s, before declining precipitously amid new competition, changing consumer tastes, and uneven corporate management. Both say 2015 is the start of something better, and this week Chevy and Alfa laid out ambitious plans and showcased new cars that they hope will make them more relevant this year, and in the coming years. Each brand sits at its own crossroads, and their paths forward are as different as the Chevy Cruze and the Alfa Romeo Giulia. Chevy is still a sales beast, as evidenced by its volume of 4.8 million vehicles sold around the world last year. Chevy executives are fond of saying one of their cars is sold every seven seconds, which illustrates the strength and reach of a car brand that is the fourth largest in the world. "Make no mistake about it, we are a brand for the people," said General Motors North America president Alan Batey. But he wants consumers to want to buy a Chevy for its design and technology, not simply because it's affordable. That starts with all Chevys now featuring a distinctive a family look, with sporty cues from the Corvette or strong lines that riff on the Silverado pickup. "We want people to fall in lust with our cars," said Mike Pevovar, executive design director for Chevy passenger cars. "That initial emotional attraction has to be right on the exterior, and that's where form comes into play." Chevy is also loading up its cars, like the freshly unveiled 2016 Chevy Cruze, with technology to appeal to a younger crowd that prizes connectivity. The Cruze will offer Apple CarPlay and Android Auto with its MyLink infotainment system, and OnStar with 4G LTE and wifi. Seeking out younger buyers is also sound business practice: Millennials now outnumber Baby Boomers as the largest single age group in the United States. Younger buyers also can improve a brand's image, which is another area where Chevy would like to improve. Chevy ranks 82nd on Interbrand's Best Global Brand's list, behind 11 other automakers. Apple is No. 1. "We need our own variation of the Genius Bar," Batey said. 2016 Alfa Romeo Giulia View 3 Photos Meanwhile, Alfa is in different shape.
