Here is my 1955 Chevy Bel Air 2 Door Post. I have been saving this car for a long while, because I was going to just have fun with it, but other circumstances has come up and now I need to sell it. The car has some issues of needing some body work over the rear wheel on the drivers side. It looks ok, but who ever done the body work before I got it, didn't do very well in my opinion. I do have the front and rear bumpers for it, but they will need chromed. I do not have the chrome for the Bel Air, only what is on the car. I have tried to show in the pictures just how good the car is. I looked for a running project car for a long time, and finally found this one. It has a New exhaust system including New Flow Masters, and it also has the motor and trans in the car. I am not really sure that it is a 327, but the man I bout the car from told me that that was what was in it.  It is not running at this time. I'm sure it would need a complete tune up.  

    The floors seam solid as seen in the pictures. I had the car running and driving about 6 or 7 months ago, then went through a divorce, and guess what, the car got parked. Now I'm having to sell it. The motor ran good, and drove good, I have had this car for several years, and hate to part with it, because they are SO hard to find in good restorable shape! You can see on the windshield it says "KEEP" and the reason for that was the divorce! The tires and wheels do not go with the 55 Chevy, because they came off of my 69 Chevelle, and I will need them to put back on the car. I have other tires and wheels to go on car for transportation.

   The car does not have any warranty, the winning buyer(bidder) is responsible for transportation of the car, at the end of the auction a $500 dollar deposit goes to my Pay Pal, all deposits are non refundable, I have the right to end the auction at any time, because I am advertising locally, tires and wheels do not go with the 55 Chevy, I do not have a title for the car, but can give a bill of sale. I had to put "clear" on the article, because of the format would not let me put anything else, if you have any questions, feel free to contact me, and I will answer as soon as possible.

Thanks for looking, and Good luck Bidding!!!

I forgot to say that, as you can see in the pictures, the car needs full resto to make a really NICE car out of it, or just leave it like it is for the "hot Rod" look. Sold "as is" where it is, and the seats need to be bolted down. I feel sure that it had a bench seat in it at one time, and the man I got it from changed it and put the buckets in it.

If I have created any problems, I apologize, but I wanted to add this, because I had forgotten to put it in, when I was doing the article.

 Thanks

NHTSA closes 4-year GM investigation, issues common sense advisory [w/video]

Thu, Apr 9 2015

Since January 2011, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has been investigating a possible problem with corroding brake lines in General Motors' GMT800-platform models, like the Chevrolet Silverado and Suburban and GMC Sierra, in states with salt on their roads in the winter. However, as opposed to launching a full recall of millions of vehicles, the government is issuing a common-sense safety advisory to all drivers in snowy states to keep their vehicle's undercarriage clean. It even has a video explaining things. "Older-model vehicles, often driven in harsh conditions, are subject to corrosion over long periods of time, and we need owners to be vigilant about ensuring they, their passengers, and others on the roads are safe," said NHTSA Administrator Mark Rosekind in the announcement of the end of the investigation. The agency was clear in its report that "brake line corrosion seen in the GM vehicles was not unique," and the government "has not identified a defect that would initiate a recall order." Instead NHTSA is advising drivers, especially those of vehicles from before 2007, to wash their vehicle's undercarriage in the winter and spring to remove salt or other de-icing chemicals. It also recommends regular checks by a mechanic to make sure everything is in proper order. According to the investigation documents, for just the GMT800 platform models, NHTSA found 3,645 complaints of brake line corrosion, which included allegations of 107 crashes and 40 injuries. The issue was found to be more common in vehicles over 10 years old. GM has released a statement (embedded below) that the company "supports the consumer advisory from NHTSA urging regular maintenance and care of brake lines on older vehicles." NHTSA Closes Investigation into Brake-Line Failures NHTSA 13-15 Thursday, April 9, 2015 Agency issues safety advisory on preventing undercarriage corrosion WASHINGTON – The Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) today issued a Safety Advisory and consumer video encouraging owners of model year 2007 and older trucks, SUVs and passenger cars to inspect brake lines and thoroughly wash the underside of their vehicles to remove corrosive salt after the long winter in order to prevent brake-line failures that increase the risk of a crash.

Car and Driver 10Best list cracked by Tesla Model S, BMW 3 Series left off

Fri, Nov 21 2014

Car and Driver is keeping new blood pumping into its annual 10Best cars list with three new entries making it on for 2015 and a perennial favorite falling off. Among the biggest shocks this year is that the BMW 3 Series and 4 Series are no longer named, despite years of some portion of that lineup earning a mention. In another surprise, the Tesla Model S (specifically in S 60 trim to fit under the $80,000 cost cap) makes it to the 2015 roster and is the only electrically motivated member of the group. Despite the loss of the 3 Series, BMW isn't entirely shut out this year, because the M235i gets its name on the list. Car and Driver argues that the little coupe feels like a welcome throwback to the E46 chassis M3 of the early 2000s. In addition to the Model S, the final newbie to the annual group is the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. The inclusion of these new members knocks the Audi A6/A7 family and Ford Fiesta ST out from the 2014 rundown. The other seven models carry over from last year, including the Cadillac CTS, Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, Honda Accord, Mazda3, Mazda6, Porsche Boxster/Cayman and Volkswagen Golf/GTI. The 2015 10Best cars list certainly seems to have something for everyone from the hot hatch fan to the family man and even the green car driver, thanks to the addition of the Tesla. Head over to Car and Driver to read its detailed explanations for each vehicle's inclusion, but if you've got a difference of opinion or just really like the list, let us know in Comments.
