1957 Chevy Bel Air 2 Door Post V-8 3 Speed Automatic Transmission Rally Wheels Recent Paint, Interior, and Windshield Offered for sale is one of America's most desirable cars...the 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air. The Bel Air was the highest model, and this is the 2 door post model. As you can see in the photos, it's a good looking car. The trim is intact, the body looks great, and the interior has been redone. It has been raining here for the past few days, so I put off taking pictures, but the forecast shows more rain, so I decided to go ahead and take them. The car is shiny when it's not wet. It's paint is smooth, no visible rust or bubbles, and the glass is all good. The windshield and rubber seal were replaced last week, so they're perfect. I tried to get a picture from every angle so you can see how it all lines up. It can be driven just like it is, and you can fly in and drive it home if you are the adventurous type. The car starts easily, idles well, steers, shifts, and stops like it should. It has a great sounding small block V-8 with dual exhaust. Not loud, but sounds excellent. I don't know if it's a 283, 327, or 350. It could very well be the original engine...but I don't know. It has a 3 speed automatic transmission, which replaced the factory Powerglide. The interior was replaced and looks good, as seen in the pictures. The headliner, door panels, and carpet all look great. It's a car you can buy and drive without having to do a lot of work to it. It's a good 5-10 footer, but if you've tried to find cheap 57 Chevys, it's near impossible. I don't have access to a lift, so I can't get photos of the underneath. The trunk, areas around the windshield and rear window, and the cowl and firewall all look solid. The car is being listed to be sold. Please, no games or dreamers. You either want the car and can pay for it, or you can't. Let's not make this harder than it has to be. If you want to see it first, please inspect BEFORE the auction ends. You're bidding to win, not to set up a future date to look it over. Serious buyers will know what to do. I can add a Buy it Now if you want me to do that, or I can end the auction early for those who just can't wait. I'll help any way that I can. I can send additional pictures if you send me your email address, and I can't get you in touch with the owner if there's anything you need to speak to him about. I have a clean, clear title in hand that's ready to hand off to the new owner. The car will not leave my possession until all funds have cleared. If we agree on a price and I end the auction early, the payment should come quickly. If you want to wait and see how the auction turns out, that's your call. I don't think it will go the full 7 days, but time will tell. These 57s are getting harder and harder to find. You can reach me at northshorebill@aol.com, or call/text me at 941-740-2277. Texts and emails usually get a quicker response than calls. The car is located in Port Charlotte...about 90 miles south of Tampa on Florida's Gulf Coast. I am about 10 miles off of I-75, so driving it home or shipping. It will be quick and painless to get on the road heading home. Thanks for looking, and Happy Bidding !!! On Jun-05-14 at 10:20:22 PDT, seller added the following information: Just a quick update. Two people felt the need to write and say the car is a 210, and not a Bel Air. They say there is chrome missing, which is possible. They say it should have more. That's possible too. When I wrote them back, I didn't get a reply. I'm going by the VIN or serial number, if you prefer it to be called that. It starts with a "V". That means it was a factory V-8 car. 6 cylinder cars started with an A, B, or C...not a V. A= a 150 model, B= a 210 model, and C= a Bel Air. This is a VC car, and shown on the serial number plate photo from inside the driver's door. I didn't go by the chrome that is or isn't there...I went by the actual number of the car. You decide for yourself. I'm going with the facts that I can prove. REAL Bel Air, REAL V-8 CAR. LOWERED RESERVE!!! Don't miss out, it looks like the car will sell. I can end the auction early for the right price. If no one offers that price, the auction will go to the end and everyone can bid what they feel it's worth to them. Good Luck |

1983 Motorweek showdown pits Porsche 928S vs. Chevy Camaro Z28
Mon, Jan 12 2015Last month, Motor Trend threw the Camaro Z/28 and Porsche 911 GT3 into the bear pit and let them fight it out. Way back in 1983, MotorWeek had the same idea, comparing the Camaro Z/28 to the Porsche 928S. At the time, the Camaro was America's best selling sports coupe, the 928S was Porsche's top-of-the-line model that also had the highest top speed of any car sold here. And the price differential was even more stark then: $13,600 for the Camaro, $45,000 for the Porsche. That put the Z/28's cast-iron, 5.0-liter V8 with 190 horsepower and 240 pound-feet of torque against the all-aluminum 4.7-liter V8 with 234 hp and 263 lb-ft in the 928S. Even with that and the Camaro being 14 inches longer than the Porsche, the American was a surprising 40 pounds lighter than the German. The show took them to Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia to see how close a relative performance bargain could hang with a the German GT. Both had five-speed manual transmissions, but the high-speed corners and tight sections of Summit Point would test other handling variables, including the "bone-rattling" Camaro's solid rear axle and disc and drum brake setup vis-a-vis the four-wheel disc brakes and independent suspension on the "firm-but-smooth" Porsche. Paradoxically, the larger disparity 22 years ago resulted in a closer result. Check out the video to see how the Summit was won.

Reuss says GM diesel plans are still on pace
Fri, Oct 16 2015General Motors is not going to let Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal ruin its plans for a new line of efficient, torquey oil-burners, the company's Executive Vice President Mark Reuss said at a recent press event. "No way," Reuss responded when asked about cancelling the upcoming diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze and other vehicles. "The Cruze Diesel is too good not to do it." Slated for 2017, the compact is just the latest member of a diesel offensive that initially kicked off with the first Cruze Diesel and most recently saw the introduction of the oil-burning Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon. Reuss also reassured those in attendance that there was "no delay" in development of Cadillac's diesel lineup. Cadillac is working on a line of four- and six-cylinder turbodiesels for Europe. They'd make their way into the US market, too, eventually. "It's a question of timing," Reuss said, according to Car and Driver. Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal has caused automakers across the globe to at least reanalyze their diesel strategy. Jaguar Land Rover, which is preparing several diesel-powered models for the US market, went on record late last month to reaffirm its commitment to diesel.

The streaming service announced an agreement on Thursday to feature vehicles including the Chevrolet Bolt, the electric GMC Hummer pickup and the Cadillac Lyriq in TV series and films "where relevant." The companies will highlight the partnership in a commercial featuring Will Ferrell that will air during the Feb. 12 Super Bowl. Netflix and GM called the agreement "part of a commitment to a more sustainable future." Financial terms were not disclosed. Netflix said it will help creators "better understand how EVs can complement and enhance their stories." Shows that will feature GM's electric vehicles include "Love is Blind," "Queer Eye" and "Unstable." Netflix productions also will include electric vehicles made by other automakers, the company said.
