NO RESERVE!!!! 1955 Chevy Bel Air. This is the 2 door sedan. Its a pretty nice car. It has a 327 and a 4 speed. The car runs fantastic. It drives down the road straight with no rattles or clunks. It sounds fantastic. It is a 4 speed trans and it pops out of 3rd once in awhile. It only does it once in awhile. I have been driving it on a regular basis. All the lights,horn, turn signals and gauges work as they should. It has the factory radio but doesn't work. The car is currently NYS inspected. The motor on the car is a 327. From what I can tell I think its a 327 from a chevelle. It doesn't smoke or knock or tick or anything. It runs awesome!-As for the exterior, It was restored at some point in its life. The paint has a great shine to it. It has some minor flaws but I wouldn't hesitate to take it to shows and cruise ins. I just recently took it to a local show. The body on the car is straight, Not sure what has been done to it but obviously its been painted and redone and would assume it some some fill in it, but it is 58 years old. . I would say its a strong driver quality. The pics really look like the car. I would say they are an accurate look of the car. The underside----Well I just had the new tires and rims put on the car and it was on the lift so I got a real good look at it. The frame and the floors on the car are really nice. The only issue I found was the body mount in the back by the wheel well had some rot to it. But the actually frame,floors and trunk were great. I took pics of this -Please look at the pics. I was surprised at how nice the underside of the car was. Considering how old the car is. I didn't see any rot on the floors,frame or trunk. They were really clean --The tires and rims on the car are brand new. They are AR Torque thrust D--And they are as big as your gonna get under it. The chrome is excellent!!!!! Both bumpers are mint-The stainless on the car is nice. The interior-----The inside is pretty nice on the car-It could use a carpet kit. It is presentable but whoever put it in cut out around the gas pedal and shifter and could have been done better. Like I said its presentable but you might want to replace it--see the pics--The seat covers look to be new-and look to be professionally installed. The look correct for the car-But I am no 55 chevy expert. When I said the paint had some flaws the inside paint has some flaws. I saw a couple drips in the paint on the trim inside. The door panels are pretty nice-Im sure they were replaced and the headliner looks new. See pics for all this. Im sure I am missing some stuff so feel free to ask questions and ask for any pics you want. -As for the actual car-This is what I found----According to the vin its a VC-which means Bel Air 2400, and according to the trim tag the car is a true 2 door sedan Bel Air,the trim is 513-Turquoise/Ivory the paint code is 612-India Ivory/Regal Turquoise--So whoever restored the car painted it the correct color and did the interior in the correct colors for the car. All in all I would say real nice driver that gets a lot of thumbs up and compliments everywhere it goes. It has driver quality paint and body. Interior is decent and hasn't been chopped up-they did it as factory as they could. Not a perfect car but a real decent driver car. Better than a lot of the cars I have seen on e-bay-We are a NY dealer so Ny residents will have to pay sales tax-I have 100% feedback for a reason and sell a lot of cars on here. I try and be as honest as I can when listing a car. I have seen some of the vague descriptions on here. I feel I have accurately described this cars with its flaws and its good points. This is a no reserve auction-So please read the ad carefully and make sure you want the car before you bid-I require a $1000 deposit immediately following the auction. This is non-refundable. The car is being sold as is with no warranty--Its almost 60 years old!!!!!! Please come check out the car if you can--or ask questions and I will gladly send any pics you want--I am no 55 chevy expert but I think this is a good deal for the car--

Smaller Cars Endure Big Problems On Crash Test
Wed, Jan 22 2014In a crash test of 11 of the smallest cars on the market, only one vehicle received an acceptable rating. The rest received marginal or poor ratings in the study, providing evidence that supports a widely held notion that smaller cars are among the least safe on the road. No other vehicle group has performed as poorly on a new crash test than these mini cars, says the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the nonprofit group that conducted the testing. The latest results of which were released Wednesday. The Chevrolet Spark was the only car earning an overall "acceptable" rating on the small-front overlap test, and even that vehicle had its shortcomings, IIHS said. "Small lightweight vehicles have an inherent safety disadvantage," said Joe Nolan, the senior vice president for vehicle research at IIHS. "That's why it's even more important to choose one with the best occupant protection. Unfortunately, as a group, minicars aren't performing as well as other vehicle categories." The Mazda2, Kia Rio, Toyota Yaris and certain Ford Fiesta models all received "marginal" overall grades on the test, while the Mitsubishi Mirage, Nissan Versa, Toyota Prius C, Hyundai Accent, Fiat 500 and Honda Fit all earned "poor" ratings. Results from these sub-compact cars fare much worse than vehicles sized just a little bit bigger, IIHS said. Among 17 cars evaluated in the small category, five earned "good" ratings and five more earned "acceptable." Only introduced a year ago, the small-front overlap test has quickly become a key indicator of differences in automotive safety. IIHS introduced it as a way to replicate what happens when the front corner of a vehicle collides with a tree or utility pole at 40 miles per hour. In the real world, these sorts of accidents are more dangerous than others, in part because they bypass the front-end crush zones on most cars.

Without a grade of acceptable or better, they cannot qualify for the IIHS' overall Top Safety Pick+ honor, given annually to the safest models on the market.
2014 Chevy Silverado priced from *$24,585, V8 gets better economy than Ford EcoBoost V6
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Chevrolet has thrown down the next hand in the pickup truck poker wars and revealed at least a couple of potential aces - depending on which numbers matter most to you. The 2014 2014 Silverado 1500 with its 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 gets 335 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, is mated to a six-speed automatic, can tow 11,500 pounds with the optional Max Trailer Package and costs the same as the outgoing Silverado, $24,585 (*including $995 destination fee). Chevy says the Silverado also stands atop the fuel economy charts when comparing any competitor with a V8 engine - and some competitors with V6 engines. The two-wheel drive model returns 16 miles per gallon city, 23 mpg highway, 19 mpg combined in two-wheel drive guise and 16 mpg city, 22 mpg highway and 18 mpg combined as a four-wheel drive.
For context around those numbers, the most fuel efficient V8-powered 2013 Ford F-150 pickups lose about two mpg in every metric compared to the Silverado, the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost returning 16 city, 18 highway and 22 combined in two-wheel drive. However, that EcoBoost does have 365 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque. You can get a Ram 1500 with a 3.6-liter V6 that gets 25 mpg highway, but it has 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque. The 2013 Ram with the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and its 395 hp and 407 lb-ft drops one mpg in every category to the Silverado. Its tow rating is 200 pounds beyond its nearest competitor, the F-150 with the Max Trailer Tow Package.
Elsewhere, the new Silverado gets a quieter cab with a redesigned interior, a new bed with improved load-management possibilities, disc brakes all around, tweaked steering and suspension, along with free standard scheduled maintenance for two years or 24,000 miles.

Chevrolet Camaro in Korea - Click above for high-resolution image
There once was a time when Daewoo was one of the biggest companies in South Korea. It was larger than both LG and Samsung, and second only to Hyundai. But these days the name is all but gone.
