If you are looking for a perfect frame off restored trailer queen turn back now, No use in wasting your time or mine. However if you want to spend $40K+ and are in the market for a very nice above driver quality 57 Chevrolet with out busting your entire life savings then keep reading!!!!!
Up for auction is a very nice 57 Chevy that you will be proud to drive and show. This car will gets a lot of looks and compliments everywhere you go. This American icon is very dependable and hits the road excellent and can be driven anywhere!!
This car originally was sold in Melbourne Florida and made its way up here just a few short years ago. I purchased it in Charlotte N.C and sold it to a good friend of mine in aprox 2008-2009. He installed vintage a/c and a new 350 crate engine. The car has been garage kept since and driven very little and still shows extremely well. Just a few weeks ago I acquired this 57 back in on trade and have made it my demo. I have been driving this car back and forth to work and around town daily (weather permitting) with NO problems!!!
The body is straight as an arrow and as solid as you will find!! The trunk, floors, frame, body panels are extremely solid and rust free! T
he chrome, stainless, and glass is in immaculate condition and still shows like new with a high quality shine! The windshield has one foggy place on the driver side (see pics) other than that all glass is perfect!!
The paint is slick as glass and as straight as a guitar string. It has a very deep show room shine and looks amazing but the car has been done for aprox 7-8 years and driven a little so it will have what I would consider to be normal wear that is to be expected from any vehicle that has been driven and enjoyed ...such as maybe a small chip here or there that has been touched up. NO runs, orange peel, trash in the paint etc. This is a high quality paint job that has held up remarkably! It is accented tastefully and professionally with pearl ghost flames that you have to look HARD to see. In fact they barely show up in the pics but if you look close you will catch a glimpse. Also on the trunk is some air brush work that was done from the dealer in Florida who sold it years ago. Personally the airbrush on the trunk is the only thing I don't like about the cars paint and if the new owner would like I am willing to repaint the trunk lid and delete this??
The interior just like the rest of the car was restored a few years ago but still shows extremely well. NO rips or tears!! It still shows to be in great condition! It is fitted with aftermarket oil, temp amp gauges, aftermarket seatbelts and a Kenwood am/fm/cd player
As mentioned before a new 350/290h.p. crate engine was added by my friend in aprox 2008-2009. He purchased this engine from Berglund Chevrolet and I do have the receipt and less than 9,000 miles have been placed on it. With the headers, aluminum intake and a few more upgrades I would estimate this car to be a touch over 300h.p. The engine is mated to a newly replaced (replaced same time as engine) turbo 350 automatic transmission that shifts perfect and stock rear end geared at aprox 3:73. The car runs, sounds and performs excellent NO mechanical problems!! It was upgraded last year with power brakes, vintage a/c (blows ice cold) and a Be Cool aluminum radiator to ensure absolutely NO over heating. On the hottest of days here the car will not break 190 degrees. It can be driven anywhere with NO problems!!
All old classics always require some fine tuning or have a few bugs. Here is a few very simple things I have found will require some attention from the new owner..... The horn does not blow, the stereo works but does not pick up stations as the antenna has been broken from a car cover and the speedometer quit working a few months ago. Other than those minor bugs she is ready to enjoy!!
I am a licensed and bonded Virginia dealer but am not accepting any trades at this time.
WE WELCOME ALL BUYERS WORLD WIDE!!
We reserve the right to end this auction at anytime for any reason as this car IS for sale locally.... Most of my auctions end early with an accepted offer and I am followed up with a ton of the same questions wanting to know if the car sold and 9 out of 10 of my answers are yes!!

Recharge Wrap-up: Phoenix Cars delivers ZEUS to Navy, Volt saves gas compared to i-MiEV
Thu, Apr 23 2015Phoenix Cars has delivered its first Zero Emissions Utility Shuttle (ZEUS) flatbed truck to the US Navy. The electric flatbed will be used to transport maintenance materials around Naval Base Ventura County Port Hueneme. The Phoenix ZEUS features a 100-mile range, and can charge in just three hours. It also features vehicle-to-grid technology and direct power capability, allowing it to function as a mobile power station. ZEUS customers enjoy an eight-year/300,000-mile battery warranty and round-the-clock technical support from Phoenix. Phoenix launched an electric passenger shuttle last year, and years ago worked on an electric sport utility truck before shifting over to larger vehicles. Read more in the press release from Phoenix Cars. A man found that he used less gas by trading in his Mitsubishi i-MiEV for a Chevrolet Volt. Ben Rich saved fuel in part by using his Volt for road trips rather than needing to rent cars. Rich also found other benefits to driving a Volt, including more comfort, more freedom of movement and less range anxiety. Rich often had to turn off the heat in the winter to eke out precious miles in the Mitsubishi, which he needn't do in the Chevy, though he did have a gripe about the Volt using the gas motor to warm the car. Read more at Green Car Reports. EV drivers using the ChargePoint network have traveled over 196 million miles without gasoline. ChargePoint has tallied over 9 million charging sessions for a total of 65 gigawatt hours of energy. Based on national efficiency averages of three miles per kWh and 23.9 miles per gallon, this has saved 8.2 million gallons of gasoline and 60 million pounds of CO2. This accounts for what ChargePoint calls a "huge environmental impact." Read more in the release from ChargePoint below. The Environmental Impact of ChargePoint Drivers Campbell, Calif.– We all know electric vehicles (EV) have enormous environmental advantages over gas vehicles. Plug-in EVs reduce carbon-based greenhouse gases, improve air quality and reduce our dependence on fossil fuels. EV drivers on the ChargePoint network have had a huge environmental impact. With over 9 million charging sessions delivering 65 gigawatt hours of energy, EV drivers have avoided over 60 million pounds of CO2 and 8.2 million gallons of gasoline, and driven over 196 million gas-free miles. *Based on national averages: EV efficiency of 3 miles per kWh, gas efficiency of 23.9 mpg and a net savings of 0.924 pounds of CO2 per kWh.
Dodge vs. Chevy tug-of-war taken to the extreme
Mon, 17 Dec 2012They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.
Corvette Stingray Convertible images mysteriously appear on web, so we add our own
Tue, 22 Jan 2013It was inevitable that we'd see the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray topless at some point, but that didn't make us any less interested when a pair of supposedly leaked official images showed up on theautoinsiderblog.com last week. We posted them on our Facebook page, but held off reporting on them here until we could get a little more information.
Those images, which feature a dark red car on a sterile black studio background, supposedly first appeared on the website of diecast model maker Maisto. A Chevrolet spokesman has been reported saying that they are "not official images released by Chevrolet PR," which isn't a denial they're the real deal, but neither is it a confirmation.
Close examination of the photos suggest they could be official shots of the Corvette Stingray Convertible, and while some have doubted their authenticity due to a lack of vents (which were seen on the C7s that debuted in Detroit last week), it could be that the images are of a base model car without the Z51 package that doesn't require the extra venting and cooling.
