Up for bidding is a 1955 CHEVROLET 4 DOOR WAGON RATROD GASSER. Car DOES HAVE A S.D. TITLE, vin # VB55062008. If you are looking for a very nice car to fix up or restore keep looking elsewhere as this is not the car for you. If you are looking for a very cool actual real gasser wagon that was from back in the day this is it, all be it has seen many better days. This car was built as a Rat Gasser with no intentions of being a shiny straight show winner. Every panel, door, fender, window etc. has an issue of some sort. Everything on this car is old vintage parts from mostly the 60's and 70's such as the wheels, tach, gauges, headers and so on. The chassis was raised back in the day and has stock spindles welded to stock spindles to lift the front of the car and are mounted to DISC FRONT BRAKES of unknown origin. Stock rear end has been relocated to the bottom of the springs and still retain the drum brakes. This lifts the whole car up approx. 4 inch. The motor is a 350 4 bolt main that was taken out of a 1985 chevy van that had 87,000 miles on it and the trans is a 700r4 overdrive automatic trans also from said van. Motor fires right up, runs very nice and smooth and is not near as loud as one would think with the short mufflers on the end of the vintage fender well headers. Q-jet carb mounted on stock G.M. aluminum intake manifold, stock H.E.I. distributer, Edelbrock valve covers. The 700r4 shifts real smooth, works well but is stock and does NOT have a shift kit or any mods. B&M shifter is a universal type and shifts and moves smooth and compliments the overdrive trans very nicely. The motor and trans are NOT NEW OR REBUILT just pulled from the van stripped and cleaned externally and installed. Motor is NOT fast by any means but runs great and is very reliable. Front wheels are 14x5 vintage E.T.s with radials and the rear are 14x9 Hustlers two with vintage Torque Twister bias plys. Floor had been patched with old signs in the past and that what was what was done this time as well. 15 gallon fuel cell resides where the spare tire once sat, not sure what kind it is as it is not marked. Much of the trim is on the car but not all of it is there. Some trim pieces are missing. Again NOTHING about this car is nice and straight but everything about it is very, very cool and nostalgic. Car is located in Rapid City, South Dakota and can be viewed or test driven at any time at exit 55, Deadwood Ave. Reserve price is a paltry $4500.00 for a running, driving, titled vintage gasser wagon. Where were you on 72?

NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.

Chevy to show redesigned Captiva in Geneva, will it come to US rental lots?
Wed, 27 Feb 2013Unless you're renting a car or driving through Orlando, Florida (the rental car capital of the US), you'll probably never see a Chevrolet Captiva - the rebadged, fleet-only version of the old Saturn Vue - on our roads, but this crossover is popular in many other parts of the world. As such, Chevrolet announced that the Captiva will be getting an update for 2013, which will be unveiled next week at the Geneva Motor Show.
Coming off a pretty extensive refresh in 2011, the 2013 model year will bring even more changes to the Captiva like LED taillights, new 18-inch wheels and revised fascias with a new grille and fog lights up front and inset chrome exhaust outlets at the rear. New interior features include heated rear seats, dual-zone climate control as well as available options on some of the upper trim levels such as leather seating and keyless entry and start. We have yet to hear back from Chevrolet as to whether or not the updated Captiva will be making its way to a rental lot near you, as the model is only available in the US to fleet buyers.
Alongside the updated Captiva, Chevy is also showing off its new Trax in Europe, where the subcompact crossover will go on sale this spring. GM's press release for these two Geneva-bound models is posted below.
