You are viewing a 1955 Chevy Bel Air 2 door sedan finished in Blue Metallic and India Ivory. This car is being offered at no reserve! The opening amount is the least I would take for her. If you're the only one bidding you might get one heck of a deal. I paid more than this and have put more $$ into her than the starting price by far. She has a straight body with nice paint set off with the Bel Air trim. Underneath she is solid. The chrome is in nice shape and looks to have been redone prior to my ownership. 15 inch Cragar wheels wrapped in B.F. Goodrich rubber with plenty of tread left. This '55 has a small block Chevy 350 tuned with new plugs and wires. The engine has been dressed up with an Edelbrock intake, carburetor, valve covers, and air cleaner for a little flash under the hood. The engine is back by a B&M shifted TH350 transmission to a strong GM 12 Bolt Rear End. The car has disc brakes up front with drum brakes in the rear. This car has the nice rumble with the Flowmaster exhaust. She sounds mean traveling down the road. Heads will definitely be turning when you're cruising down the road. Be ready anytime you pull in to get gas people are going to be walking up wanting to look and ask all kinds of questions about her. This car is definitely a magnet. The interior is nice with the original touches, but has some upgrades as well. There's an added tilt column. As you can see there's aftermarket A/C that runs off of R134 to keep you cool for the summer cruising. The stock instrument panel and radio are still in place. The speedo and fuel gauge are inop. I have always used a GPS for my speedo. It has an Alpine stereo CD player under the dash with a USB connection for your MP3/Ipod to connect to. This is just a nice turn key '55 ready for you to cruise around this summer. Many upgrades have already been done. It needs nothing as it sits now or you could continue to upgrade if you want. Feel free to ask any questions and I will try to get back to you as soon as possible. The mileage is reading at 23,503, but I am not certain of the actual mileage considering the age of the car. I really hate to sell the car, but I could use the money for an upcoming home purchase. I still owe a few thousand to have the loan I took out to buy the car paid off (bought 2 Tri-5's within 2 months of each other and couldn't pay for this one in cash unfortunately). The winning bidder will receive the car, registration, and bill of sale at the time of purchase. The remaining balance on the loan will be paid off immediately upon receipt of funds for the car. As soon as the title is received, I will sign it over and overnight it via USPS to the winning bidder.
The winning bidder must make contact within 48 hours of auction close. A deposit of $500 will need to be made at the time of auction close to secure the car. I will work with the winning bidder if shipping is needed. The car will not be released until payment clears.

Electric Cadillac Lyriq, Chevy Bolt EUV and more GM electric cars are on the way
Wed, Mar 4 2020GM’s murky and somewhat secretive electric car plan is falling into place, as the company dumped a massive amount of information about whatÂ’s in the pipeline at an event at its Warren, Michigan campus today. New EVs are going to be popping up across the GM brand lineup, with new entries from Chevrolet, Cadillac, GMC and Buick in progress. We also learned some big news about GMÂ’s new Ultium battery tech today, but check out this story for all of those nitty-gritty details. The electric vehicle onslaught will begin with the Cadillac Lyriq, an electric SUV thatÂ’s already been teased out. Naming it the Lyriq is the news today. No explanation for the name was provided, so weÂ’ll have to wait for April to learn more. GM didnÂ’t specifically say if the Lyriq would be launched at the NY Auto Show, but that show (assuming coronavirus doesnÂ’t cancel it) will begin on April 8 this year. Next up in the order of events is the GMC Hummer electric truck that we know will be launching on May 20. This truck will use GMÂ’s modular Ultium battery technology. However, the wait to buy a GMC Hummer will be a long one, as the truck isnÂ’t going to dive into production until fall 2021 at GMÂ’s Detroit-Hamtramck plant. GM revealed that its new modular Ultium batteries can be configured anywhere from a 50 kWh pack to a 200 kWh pack depending on the application. Range is estimated to be about 400 miles on the upper end with the largest battery pack, and GM continues to boast about a 0-60 mph acceleration time of three seconds. Charging estimates for the Ultium battery-equipped Hummer EV were also provided. GM says its truck platform will have 800-volt battery packs and be capable of 350 kW fast-charging. Time estimates werenÂ’t given, but those numbers suggest the truck will be a rapid charger. The Hummer truck on hand, which was the same that previously starred in GMC's Super Bowl spot, showed off removable roof panels that store in the frunk, as well as what appeared to be a version of GMC's Multi-Pro tailgate. It also featured sail panels on the sides, similar to those in front of the bed of the Chevy Avalanche. In addition to the Hummer, expect to see a couple Chevys launching. GM says the refreshed Bolt EV will be launched “in late 2020” with a refreshed interior and what appear to be thicker front seats.
Recharge Wrap-up: EV torque secrets, UC Davis maps future of biofuels
Fri, Jul 25 2014A UC Davis white paper maps out "Three Routes Forward for Biofuels," balancing investment risk with carbon benefits. The first option is "incremental," in which we tinker with the existing biofuel manufacturing infrastructure for small improvements over time. The "transitional" plan suggests integrating cellulosic production and other innovations with existing operations. The third route, called "leapfrogging," would mean building refineries based on new technology such as cellulosic and algae-based biofuels. The paper suggests ways the US could use these three routes together in different areas, and predicts the payoffs in terms of carbon emissions could be significant if the right people are willing to risk the capital. After all, financial advisers are always telling investors to diversify their portfolios to manage risk and rewards in the same way. Read more over at the UC Davis Institute of Transportation Studies. The Formula E Long Beach ePrix will offer free admission. The seventh round of the inaugural all-electric race season, which was moved from Los Angeles to the streets of Long Beach, will offer fans free grandstand and general admission. The race, which takes place on April 5, 2015, will use a 1.6-mile portion of IndyCar's Grand Prix of Long Beach. Read more at LA Times. Polaris is now offering its 2015 GEM electric vehicles, including the new street-legal eM1400 LSV. The passenger and utility vehicles come in two- to six-passenger configurations, many of which are street legal on roads with posted speed limits of up to 35 miles per hour. The eM1400 LSV utility vehicle seats two, offers 1,250 pounds of payload, 1,250 pounds of towing capacity, a top speed of 25 mph and a range of up to 45 miles. Its on-board charger plugs into any standard 110-volt outlet. Read more at Hybrid Cars and check out all the different configurations yourself at the Polaris website. In EVs, more torque does not always equal faster. Green Car Reports found this out when driving the Fiat 500e (with 147 pound-feet) against the similarly weighted Chevrolet Spark EV (with 400 pound-feet). The secret is, at least in part, in the gearing. The Fiat has a 9.6:1 reduction gear, making it quicker at lower speeds despite having far less available torque, while the Chevy uses a 3:1 ratio. The trade-off though, is in top speed. Furthermore, Chevy electronically limits the torque delivery at low speeds, as 400 pound-feet is a lot of launch for the little Spark EV to handle.
