The car has been garage kept, pampered, protected, and loved and it shows.
Paint & Body: The paint is several years old however it is in excellent condition and it is slick like glass and the paint looks to be a foot deep. It is the original color Glacier Blue which you don’t see every day. This 55 has one of the best body’s on any 55 that I have seen. There are no signs of rust now or in the past and it looks to be all of the original panels including the floors, trunk pan, and rockers. The body is straight and the doors, trunk, and hood line up very well. The glass is excellent and believe it or not looks to be the original LOF glass!
Interior: The interior was custom restored with some modern amenities but retaining the original style and look. The seats, door panels, headliner, and carpet were all restored in the original style and very nice. The steering column was upgraded to a polished chrome tilt wheel with a Banjo type steering wheel and the gauge cluster was upgraded to Classic Instruments with a chrome bezel also. The Muncie 4-speed transmission is shifted with a polished Hurst shifter with a Trick Flow floor shifter cover. It has a billet rear view mirror, a pair of 6x9 Jensen stereo speakers in the package tray to accompany the AM/FM stereo in the dash
Engine: The motor is a 1964 Chevy 327 V-8 rebuilt with performance in mind with all high performance parts and accessories. A partial list of the performance parts and accessories include Trick Flow aluminum heads, Edelbrock RPM Air Gap aluminum intake, Edelbrock 600cfm carburetor with electric choke, great sounding performance cam, MSD ignition and MSD 6Al box and MSD performance plug wires, and a high performance aluminum water pump. The aluminum radiator is from Griffin with a Tripac electric cooling fan. It also has ceramic coated headers, chrome alternator, polished AC compressor, and body color firewall. It has power steering and a 605 box and power disc brakes as well.

Former Fisker CEO has some advice for Tesla Motors

Wed, Oct 22 2014

Former Fisker Automotive CEO and ex-Chevrolet Volt vehicle-line director Tony Posawatz has some words of caution for Tesla Motors. The long-time automaker executive questions the California automaker's long-term viability – and gives some praise Â– in a talk with Benzinga, which you can listen to below. While the all-wheel-drive D that Tesla unveiled earlier this month in Southern California wowed a packed crowd, Posawatz (starting at around minute 4:45 in the interview) says Tesla would've been better off taking the resources it expended toward that Model S upgrade and directed them towards speeding up the development of a more affordable plug-in. Perhaps a number of investors agreed, since the company's stock fell the day after the D was announced. Posawatz says Tesla has been over-reliant on the sale of ZEV credits. Posawatz also says that Tesla has been over-reliant on the sale of zero-emissions vehicle credits in California for its earnings and questions whether the automaker will ever work at a large enough scale to sufficiently drive down costs and make consistent profits. Tesla CEO Elon Musk would take issue with this characterization. Posawatz first made his mark in the plug-in vehicle world when he was the vehicle-line director at General Motors for the Volt extended-range plug-in from 2006 to 2012. Later that year, he joined extended-range plug-in maker Fisker Automotive as its CEO, though quit that job during the summer of 2013 as the company was descending into insolvency. He joined the Electrification Coalition this past March. News Source: Benzinga Green Chevrolet Fisker Tesla Electric PHEV Tony Posawatz

MotorWeek's 80's GM muscle coupe roundup includes Regal GN and Monte Carlo SS

Thu, Jan 29 2015

Even with just four brands in the family, General Motors still represents a performance powerhouse. Between the Chevrolet Corvette Z06, Camaro Z/28, Cadillac CTS-V and ATS-V, The General can still deliver plenty of thrills. The 1980s, though, saw the brand go even crazier with performance. While the Camaro and Corvette were still around back in the day, GM had a number of other interesting performance offerings. The Bowtie was complemented by the long-deceased Monte Carlo SS, while the now-defunct Pontiac and Oldsmobile offered the Grand Prix and thumping 442, respectively. And Buick, which isn't short on performance with its Regal GS and Verano Turbo, offered a much more serious vehicle, in the form of the Grand National (not to mention the Darth Vader-spec GNX). MotorWeek, in its hugely entertaining retro flashbacks, looks back on these three long-lost GM performance icons, and it's just as good as you might expect.
