1955 Chevy Two Door Wagon! Head Turner!


Thanks for checking out this cool ride offered by M.E.S. Motorsports; where our cars are notorious for Making Everyone Stare! What we have for sale here is a very solid 1955 Chevy Two Door 150/210/Handyman wagon. The car runs really well and looks sweet cruising down the road but has not been frame off restored. This is a driver quality car that can be taken to the next level or simply enjoyed as is. Don't even think about buying this one if you don't like attention as it draws a crowd EVERYWHERE! Please have funds or financing lined up before bidding. We may consider interesting trades on this one but please be serious in any trade offers. Please read description fully before asking questions as we try to be very descriptive in our listings. Now on to the good stuff!

History – We picked up the car from a gentleman in MO. He stated that it was a Texas car which was the reason for virtually no rust.

Drivetrain – This wagon is powered by a smooth running 350 V8. She felt a little sluggish when we got it so we put on a new Edelbrock intake manifold matched with a 4 barrel Edelrock carburetor. Now its moving down the road like it should. The motor appears stock internally and has cherry bomb exhaust. It's matched with 350 Turbo transmission with a T handle shifter. We reconnected the kick down cable as well. We changed the plugs, oil, transmission and brake fluids along with a coolant flush which mean this one is ready for the road!

Exterior – Overall this wagon has a straight body but with an amateur/driver quality paint job. It could stand to be repainted to take it to the next level. It's not the most expensive paint job and the prep was less than perfect but it is a neat color. There are some dings and chips here and there with some body filler in a few places as well. It appears that car was not block sanded before paint. Chrome is in really good condition. We installed new inner weather stripping around the two front doors and new window felt in the roll down front windows. It could still use new weather stripping at the front corner window glass along with the back door as well as the outer stripping around the exterior glass. All the glass is in good shape. The windows are tinted and it could stand to be removed.

Underneath - The chassis is very solid and mostly rust free except for some minor rust in the front floor plans and spare tire area(see pics). They floors were temporarily patched with some sheet metal before the carpet was installed. Not very major and could be left alone or repaired if you wanted to paint the car. The whole underneath appears to have been painted with black paint and looks pretty good.

Interior – The interior is very clean and appears to have been redone not too long ago. Front and rear bench seats in great shape. Nice black carpet and nice black headliner. Dash was painted black and looks pretty good but not perfect. There is currently no radio but the dash was cut previously for one. There is also currently no heat or AC. Heater has been removed. Speedometer and gas gauge work. We also just installed a new sending unit in the gas tank.

Chassis/Suspension - Basically stock although we did just lower it approximately 2 inches. Cut two coils off the front springs and used 2" blocks on the rear. Rides nicely and looks awesome! Manual steering and drum brakes but is very easy to drive and stops really well. Brakes were just bled with new brake fluid.

Wheels/tires – New 17" REV wheels all the way around with brand new staggered Nexen rubber.

Known issues not mentioned above – Like most vintage cars, it seems to drip a little oil when sitting. When the transmission is really cold, may have to rev the engine before it drops into gear.

Title - Clean and clear SC title in my possession.

About us - M.E.S. Motorsports, LLC was founded and started by myself and my best friend of almost 30 years now. While M.E.S. was “officially” put into action around 2012, it really started back in the 90’s during our high school days. Even back then we were in each other’s garage every weekend working on our cars. We have always shared the same enthusiasm for that one thing…..Automobiles!  Hot rods, classics, customs, sports cars, fast cars, loud cars, basically anything with 4 wheels and an engine. For as long as I can remember we’ve always enjoyed “playing” with cars and recently decided to share our passion and creativity with others and thus M.E.S. Motorsports, LLC was officially launched . At this time we are not licensed car dealers but rather auto enthusiasts with a passion for buying and selling cars to and from other auto enthusiasts and collectors.  Our goal is to sell cars that you can actually get into and drive anywhere!  We believe that cars are actually meant to be driven on the road and not just stored. A lot of the cars that we find are from individuals who are simply not using them anymore or that started restoring them but never finished. Some cars may just need some cleaning and a tune up while other may need paint or finish work. Whatever the case is, we try to address any issues and get them road worthy. We hate to see any car just sitting, rotting or not being used. We believe that everyone out there should have the car of their dreams and that they should be able to drive it anywhere they want to go!

Nissan recalls 3.5 million vehicles over airbag sensor

Sat, Apr 30 2016

Nissan is recalling 3.53 million vehicles globally – 3.2 million in the United States – because the front passenger airbag may or may not deploy properly in the event of a crash. In affected vehicles, the occupant sensing system may not properly register a person sitting in the passenger seat. Passenger-side airbags in roughly 622,000 Nissan Sentra models built between 2013 and 2016 may deploy in crashes when they shouldn't, such as when a child is in the seat. 2016-2017 Nissan Maxima, 2013-2016 Nissan Altima, NV200, and LEAF, 2013-2017 Nissan Pathfinder, 2014-2016 Nissan NV200 Taxi, Infiniti QX60 and Q50, 2014-2017 Nissan Rogue, 2015-2016 Nissan Murano, Chevrolet City Express and 2013 Infiniti JX35 vehicles suffer from the opposite problem. In those models, the airbag may not deploy when it is supposed to. Nissan is aware of at least three crashes where airbags in one of the above models did not function properly, resulting in "moderate injuries." There have already been four recalls since 2013 for similar issues in Nissan vehicles. If you own one of these cars, expect a letter from Nissan in short order (or from GM if you own a Chevy City Express). Related Video: RECALL Subject : Passenger Air Bag may not Deploy due to OCS Error , 1 INVESTIGATION(S) Report Receipt Date: APR 26, 2016 NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V244000 Component(s): AIR BAGS Manufacturer: Nissan North America, Inc. SUMMARY: Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 Nissan Maxima, 2013-2016 Nissan Altima, NV200, LEAF and Sentra, 2013-2017 Nissan Pathfinder, 2014-2016 Nissan NV200 Taxi, Infiniti QX60 and Q50, 2014-2017 Nissan Rogue, 2015-2016 Nissan Murano, Chevrolet City Express and 2013 Infiniti JX35 vehicles. In these vehicles, the front seat passenger Occupant Classification System (OCS) may incorrectly classify an adult passenger as a child or classify the seat as empty despite it being occupied. As a result, the passenger frontal air bag may be turned off and not deploy in the event of a crash. CONSEQUENCE: If the passenger frontal air bag does not deploy as intended in the event of a crash, the passenger is at an increased risk of injury. REMEDY: Nissan will notify their owners. Chevrolet City Express owners will be notified by General Motors.

Best car infotainment systems: From UConnect to MBUX, these are our favorites

Sun, Jan 7 2024

Declaring one infotainment system the best over any other is an inherently subjective matter. You can look at quantitative testing for things like input response time and various screen load times, but ask a room full of people that have tried all car infotainment systems what their favorite is, and you’re likely to get a lot of different responses. For the most part, the various infotainment systems available all share a similar purpose. They aim to help the driver get where they're going with navigation, play their favorite tunes via all sorts of media playback options and allow folks to stay connected with others via phone connectivity. Of course, most go way beyond the basics these days and offer features like streaming services, in-car performance data and much more. Unique features are aplenty when you start diving through menus, but how they go about their most important tasks vary widely. Some of our editors prefer systems that are exclusively touch-based and chock full of boundary-pushing features. Others may prefer a back-to-basics non-touch system that is navigable via a scroll wheel. You can compare it to the phone operating system wars. Just like some prefer Android phones over iPhones, we all have our own opinions for what makes up the best infotainment interface. All that said, our combined experience tells us that a number of infotainment systems are at least better than the rest. WeÂ’ve narrowed it down to five total systems in their own subcategories that stand out to us. Read on below to see our picks, and feel free to make your own arguments in the comments. Best infotainment overall: UConnect 5, various Stellantis products Ram 1500 Uconnect Infotainment System Review If thereÂ’s one infotainment system that all of us agree is excellent, itÂ’s UConnect. It has numerous qualities that make it great, but above all else, UConnect is simple and straightforward to use. Ease of operation is one of the most (if not the single most) vital parts of any infotainment system interface. If youÂ’re expected to be able to tap away on a touchscreen while driving and still pay attention to the road, a complex infotainment system is going to remove your attention from the number one task at hand: driving. UConnect uses a simple interface that puts all of your key functions in a clearly-represented row on the bottom of the screen. Tap any of them, and it instantly pulls up that menu.

2018 Ford Expedition vs other big SUVs: How it compares on paper

Fri, Nov 10 2017

With our Alex Kierstein rightly impressed in his first-drive review of the new 2018 Ford Expedition, we decided to dig a little deeper into the numbers, and we came up with the spreadsheet below to highlight how the new 2018 Expedition compares on paper to its main full-size SUV competitors: the 2018 Chevy Tahoe and Suburban (and therefore the 2018 GMC Yukon), 2018 Toyota Sequoia and 2018 Nissan Armada. We also threw in the new, even bigger 2018 Chevrolet Traverse since, as you'll see, its massive dimensions should put it on the radar for anyone who needs loads of passenger and cargo space but doesn't care as much about towing. A few notes about the chart above. First, the 6.2-liter V8 that's included with the new-for-2018 Tahoe RST trim level is the standard engine on the GMC Yukon Denali. You can apply most of the Tahoe's numbers to the entire Yukon and Yukon XL lineup. Second, though we highlighted categories where the Traverse led, we also highlighted the runner-up full-size SUV, since this was ultimately about that segment. Traverse numbers are broadly applicable to the new Buick Enclave.
