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--

Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction

Sun, 17 Feb 2013

It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.

General Motors Recalls Nearly 780,000 Cars To Fix Deadly Problem

Thu, Feb 13 2014

General Motors is recalling nearly 780,000 compact cars in North America because the engines can shut down unexpectedly and cause crashes. The company says six people have been killed in crashes related to the problem. The recall affects Chevrolet Cobalts and Pontiac G5s from the 2005 through 2007 model years. U.S. safety regulators say the weight of the key ring and rough roads can move the ignition switch out of the run position, cutting the engine and electricity. If that happens, air bags may not work. GM says there have been 22 crashes from the problem. All happened at high speeds. Dealers will replace the ignition switch for free. GM says owners should remove nonessential items from key rings until the problem is fixed.

Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.
