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--

Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

Our apologies to those who've seen this before, but for the rest of the class, how awesome are these pictures of the Vert-A-Pac shipping system General Motors came up with to ship the Chevrolet Vega back in the 1970s? Developed along with Southern Pacific Railroad, GM was able to double the amount of Vega models it could ship by packing them into the unique storage cars vertically.
At the time, rail cars could fit 15 vehicles each, but Chevrolet was able to lower shipping costs by making it possible to ship 30 Vegas per rail car, in turn allowing the price of the Vega to remain as low as possible. Each rail car had 30 doors that would fold down so that a Vega could be strapped on, and then a forklift would come along and lift the door into place. All the cars were positioned nose down, and since they were shipped with all of their required fluids, certain aspects had to be designed specifically for this type of shipping, including an oil baffle in the engine, a special battery and even a repositioned windshield washer reservoir. See for yourself in our image gallery above.

Nissan Leaf has 2nd-best sales month ever, Chevy Volt does a 2013 repeat [UPDATE]

Tue, Apr 1 2014

UPDATE: The official press release says that "Volt [sales were] up 7 percent," but Randy Fox let AutoblogGreen know that this is simply due to a change in the fleet/retail mix between March 2013 and 2014. The actual number sold was exactly the same in the two months. A month ago, Nissan's director of EV sales and marketing, Toby Perry, said he expected to see the Leaf's sales momentum continue into March. It wasn't a big leap, since January and February were slow sales months in 2013 (around 640 each) before a big climb to 2,200 in March. In 2014, the first two months of the year were better (around 1,300 each) but Nissan can still be happy that the Leaf just had the best March ever and its second-highest sales month ever, with 2,507 sold. That's a 12.1 percent increase from 2013 and Perry said in a statement to AutoblogGreen that one reason is all of the buyers who are becoming evangelists for the vehicle. "We've also seen an increase in showroom traffic as we enhanced our marketing presence in March," he said. Nissan pointed to cities like Washington, DC, Raleigh-Durham, NC and urban areas in Texas as strong Leaf markets last month. On the Chevy Volt front, January and February were also slow months in 2014, down roughly half from the 2,000-ish the plug-in hybrid was selling at the end of 2013. For 2014, sales were up slightly from the first two months of the year and Chevy spokesman Randy Fox told AutoblogGreen that the March number was "pretty flat, year-over-year." Even with that warning, we were surprised to see the total come in at 1,478. Why's that? Because the total for March 2013 was ... 1,478. So, yeah, that's pretty steady even if there were 26 selling days in March period this year compared to 27 last year. As always, our more complete report of last month's green car sales will be coming soon. News Source: General Motors, Nissan Green Chevrolet GM Nissan Electric Hybrid PHEV ev sales

GM sweetens military discount for Buick, Chevy and GMC

Sun, 06 Oct 2013

American servicemen and women interested in a new vehicle from Chevrolet, Buick or GMC now have a bit more incentive to head down to their local dealer, as General Motors has announced plans to improve its military discount program.
The new GM Military Discount Program offers eligible consumers a new Chevy, Buick or GMC at invoice pricing, which in some cases can take very large chunks out of a car's retail price. When factored in with other incentives, most of which are available with the Military Discount, the bargains are thick on the ground for members of the US armed forces.
GM's Retail Sales and Marketing Support general manager, Chuck Thomson, said, "GM has long supported the military and military families, and we hope this simplified and enhanced discount will show our appreciation for their service and help make it easier for them to own one of our great new vehicles." The program is open to all active duty and reserve members in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, National Guard and Coast Guard, as well as veterans that have been out of the service for less than a year. Military retirees and their spouses are also eligible for the discount.
