Driver quality. has aftermarket A/C but never hooked up hoses or charged. most parts, hoses fittings included in sale. 700R4 torque converter OD lock-up needs a switch to complete. runs fine w/o. it has a trans fluid drip. electronic speedo not accurate needs calibration. small hole in carpet where old gas pedal was mounted, steering could use some work."

This is a really nice driver 55.  It is an older restoration that was mostly done by the previous owner around 2003-6.  I purchased it unfinished.  Very nice solid body & frame. Looks like a low mileage southern california, arizona, western or southern car and one of the nicest rust-free cars I've seen.  Everything has been stripped and painted. Solid original sheet metal.  The paint overall is showing its age and is still pretty respectable, but it is not a show quality paint job. This car has a 1995 Camaro LT1 roller cam motor and a new TCI 700R4 transmission.  I took the EFI off in favor of a holley carb set-up.  Also upgraded to a GMPP LT4 hotcam, roller rockers and MSD ignition.  I don't know exact mileage on motor but was told it was a low mile salvage motor when installed by previous owner.  I had the motor out and can verify this.  It looked virtually new inside. I have put less than 1200 miles on car. Runs nice and plenty of power. The interior is Ultra leather and is tastefully done including the trunk. This 55 has a uni-steer power rack and pinion set-up with front power disc brakes and dropped spindles.  The car goes down the road straight and turns fine but the steering could use some adjustment to be A1. It has a '69 camaro non-posi rearend on leaf springs installed in stock location.  I think the gears are 3.08's but not sure.  The car sits right and drives nice.  Wheels are Boyds junkyard dogs with BF Goodrich tires and they fit to near rubbing (perfect in my opinion).  If you are looking for a very solid and nice driving 55 chevy you wont be afraid to take anywhere, then this is it.  It's getting harder to find tri-fives in this kind of condition. Solid investment and always a favorite. I hate to see this one go.  Please bid to win, and bid to buy.

Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR

Fri, 08 Feb 2013

There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.

Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.

Chevy reveals Colorado Z71 Trail Boss Edition

Sat, Mar 7 2015

Chevrolet wants to make sure that if people are in the market for a midsize pickup, then there is a Colorado available to fit their desires. For businesses, there's the recently unveiled box delete package and for those looking for a customized look, there's the GearOn Edition. For the latest Z71 Trail Boss version, the automaker is going for folks planning to go off-road. As the name suggests, all Trail Boss versions of the Colorado start with the already off-road-inlined Z71 trim level, including its 305-horsepower, 3.6-liter V6 and six-speed automatic, and the package can be added to practically any body variant: extended or crew cab, long or short bed and rear- or four-wheel drive. To set things apart, there's a locking rear differential, front tow hooks, darkened 17-inch wheels that are shod with Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac tires and on the four-wheel drive models, a transfer case shield. For some extra style, the Colorado Trail Boss wears black parts for the fender flares, side steps and Bowtie badges. The bed also gets a spray-on liner and a few parts from the GearOn accessory catalog, including the tie-down rings, load bar and cargo divider. The Trail Boss goes on sale in the spring, and to add all of this equipment to a Colorado, it costs $3,320 in addition to the price of any Z71 trim model.

The Trail Boss combines the capability of Chevrolet's Z71 off-road truck suspension package with more aggressive tires and additional appearance enhancements. It is offered in extended and crew cab configurations, with a choice of a long or short cargo bed and available 4WD. The Trail Boss goes on sale this spring with a starting price of $28,505 plus the package price of $3,320. "The Chevrolet Colorado Z71 Trail Boss Edition is equally at home blazing an urban trail or following one to a favorite remote campground," said Tony Johnson, Colorado marketing manager.
