Hi there. For sale is a 1955 chevrolet nomad in very good shape for an old survivor. There really is minimal rust on this car. We bought this car some years ago and was intending on doing a frame off resto on it, but other things have taken priority over the years. Has been stored in a heated shop. The cars body is in very good condition. Chrome and trim is in decent shape, trim is pitting. Paint is pretty good, starting to bubble here and there. There is some surface rust around the given areas on these cars. Interior is in pretty good shape, some of the rubber around the windows could definitely be replaced. I believe the odometer is correct and that it has not been turned over. I just put a new edelbrock carb on it and it runs great. I am kind of glad that it doesnt have the old powerglide and the 265 in it anymore. I believe it has a good 350 in it and it definitely has a TH350 in it. I need to run the numbers off the block to make sure. I will update this later. This makes it so much more driveable to me. The car has been repainted, and its a decent paint job. Cragar wheels and good tires. This is an old survivor car, so dont be expecting a show car for my price. This is plain and simply a driver quality car and I have very much enjoyed it as that. Its hard to say what this car is worth these days but I sure dont see any 55's around here. I am in no hurry to sell this car, dont need the money, nor do I want to get rid of it. Just thinking that someone may use it more than I do and want to do a restoration on it. Yes the serial tag is there and it does match the title. I am going to list this car locally as well as all the craigslists here on the west coast, so I reserve the right to end this auction at any time for any reason. I would like to include some pics of the bottom side of the car, probably monday or tuesday as it is going to start raining again till monday. Power windows work also, and so does the fan and heater. No cracks in the glass. If you have any questions let me know and I will do my best to answer them.

GM cutting Chevy Sonic, Buick Verano production [UPDATE]
Sun, Jan 25 2015UPDATE: A previous version of this story indicated that Orion Assembly would be idled for seven weeks, from February 16 through April 6. This was incorrect. The factory will instead only be idled for the weeks of February 16 and April 6. The story has been edited to reflect this. General Motors has announced that the factory responsible for the Buick Verano and Chevrolet Sonic will be idled for the weeks of February 16 and April 6, with blame being placed on excess supply. The Orion Assembly plant, about 45 minutes north of GM's Renaissance Center headquarters, employs about 1,800 people, but they'll be given a pair of furloughs as inventories of the sub-compact Sonic and premium compact Verano reach 127 days and 84 days, respectively. That works out to 26,600 Chevys and 9,800 Buicks waiting for buyers. According to Automotive News, the compact Chevy sales bested the industry average in 2014, jumping up nine percent versus the the overall segment's eight-percent gain, while the Buick sedan's sales were down four percent. When asked about the shutdown, a GM spokesman told AN that it will "build to market demand," while also pointing out that the company did not comment on production plans.

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.
