Ready to Cruise


Being offered is a nice 1956 Chevrolet that is ready to jump into and cruise. This is a car that has lines that are timeless and is appreciated by everyone who looks at it.  Take yourself back to a time when life was simpler and cars had style to spare.  The car is driver quality, although this car is not likely to win a car show it is very presentable  and is mechanically complete and ready to cruise. This is a turn key car and one of the most desirable Chevrolet’s ever produced.  This is one of those opportunities to own a vehicle and not lose any money.  Take a look at our feedback and buy with no worries.  As always we encourage pre-bid inspections and phone calls if you have any questions.

 

Interior Highlights


The interior of this vehicle is in great shape as can be seen in the pictures.  The black vinyl interior is set off by the awesome dash and the oodles of chrome that we don't see in the cars of today.  The dash is in great shape with bright hardware and a full compliment of original gauges.  The interior of the car is full of timeless accessories and hardware that are all in great shape and really add to the classic feel of this vehicle.  The vehicle is equipped with a radio.  The pictures tell the rest of the story, the interior is only one highlight of this vehicle.


Exterior Highlights

  

The exterior of the car is finished in very sharp burgundy paint, body was stripped to the metal prior to painting and a base coat clear coat finish was applied. We would consider the paint somewhere between driver quality and show quality.  The paint is set off by the body lines of one of the most desirable chevrolets ever built as well as the numerous painted or chrome details that really set the car off.  The body of the car is very straight and the fit on the car is very good. the doors open and close without issues. The exterior has the awesome body lines that are from a time when cars had style and flare.  The vehicle is equipped with one piece california style painted bumpers that are in great shape. The vehicle is equipped with rally wheels with good tires.  All exterior hardware is in tact and for the most part in very nice shape, there is some pitting on the door handles, light bezels, and front grill. The vehicle has new hood and trunk emblems.  The stainless on the car is in very good shape.  The glass on the car is in great shape, the rear window has some scratches in it but is not cracked.  The car, as the pictures indicate, is stunning to look and is a real head turner.


Mechanical Highlights

This vehicle is equipped with a 327 small block chevrolet engine with an M20 4-speed muncie transmission.  The vehicle starts, runs, drives, and stops as it should.  The car has a nice vintage hot rod sound and is a very good driver. The vehicle has new 2 1/2” exhaust with flow master style exhaust, the car sounds great.  This is a car you can buy and get immediate satisfaction out of as it is ready to go, this is an ideal cruise in car and would be fine to take to shows but not likely a show winner but something you could be very proud of.


The odometer reads 62,389 miles, the title reads exceeds mechanical limits.


Unfinished Items:

Wipers not not working

Radio not working

Gas Gauge not working

Horn not working

Next Chevrolet Malibu to have 'groundbreaking,' 'passionate' design

Mon, Dec 29 2014

In our First Drive of the Chevrolet Malibu after its redesign in 2013 we wrote, "Chevy has quickly worked up a host of changes for its ever-important midsize sedan, and will be launching this 'there, we fixed it' 2014 Malibu like it's an all-new product." Still, no one cared. The Malibu has been mentioned in eight posts this year, all but two of them dealt with recalls, and one of those two was about a 2011 Malibu university science project. It came up in precisely zero posts from November 2013 to March 2014. That's why, according to a report in Automotive News, Chevrolet honchos are "hustling" to have a new Malibu ready in a year. Mark Reuss, General Motors' head of global product development, said it will have "groundbreaking design" and "groundbreaking technology," and asked investors who were showed a picture of it, "When is the last time you saw a [midsize] car this distinctive and this dramatic from General Motors?" Doubling down on the bullishness, Reuss said, "We've got our act together here on the midsize-car segment." Then, throwing every last chip on the pile, global design head Ed Welburn said the next Malibu's design will "make a significant statement" with "a very passionate design." Based on the number of comments Malibu posts get, we figure a fair few number of you would love for this to be the case; yet this is a lot of braggadocio to slather on a car that probably hasn't made "a significant statement" since Elton John had a number one record with Honky Chateau. That was 1972, if you're trying to remember. No matter the looks, the AN report says the new 'Bu will make a profit statement, selling for more money while costing less to produce. Alongside the Cruze, GM figures the pair will bring in an extra $800 million in variable profit in 2016. Which, in case it ends up being another 'butterface,' isn't bad for a silver lining.

GM finds steering flaw, decides it doesn't warrant a recall

Tue, Apr 14 2015

Guess what? General Motors is back in the spotlight for not recalling something. This time, though, not only does the company have an argument against a recall campaign, but its position is supported by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. According to The New York Times, over 50 owners of GM vehicles have reported instances of stuck or seized steering after driving long distances without moving the wheel. One owner complained to NHTSA that the "locked" steering of their 2013 Buick Verano caused a collision with a concrete barrier in a construction zone. Along with the 2013 to 2014 model year Verano sedans, Chevrolet Cruze and Malibu sedans are also affected. Considering the popularity of those models, GM needs to have a reason for not issuing a recall, right? "Based on a very low rate of occurrence – ranging from less than one half to less than two incidents per thousand vehicles – and the fact that the condition is remedied when the wheel is turned, GM determined this was not a safety issue," spokesman Alan Adler told The Times. The company has, however, issued a technical service bulletin for owners that complain of the problem. The fix is nothing more than a software update that is covered for 10 years or 150,000 miles from new. NHTSA cited GM's actions, along with descriptions of the problems from customers, in its decision not to issue a recall, with spokeswoman Catherine Howden saying, "the symptoms described would be a brief, perceptible change in steering feel that has little to no effect on the driver's ability to safely steer the vehicle." "When terms like 'notchy,' 'stick,' 'slip' or 'feel' are used, it does not indicate a meaningful increase in steering effort," Howden told The Times via email. What do you think? Is GM in the wrong here? Should there be a recall, or is the issue so limited as to not warrant one? Have your say in Comments.

Chevy Volt 'Drive My Way' test cuts out the dealership

Tue, Dec 22 2015

Last month, the 2016 Chevrolet Volt won the 2016 Green Car of the Year Award at the Los Angeles Auto Show. Awards are nice, but General Motors is now offering to make some folks' familiarity with the second-generation Volt a little more personal. Chevy is enacting what it calls the "Drive My Way" program, where the automaker brings a 2016 Volt directly to some prospective buyers for a 30-minute test drive with no dealer required, according to Hybrid Cars. Kind of like Tesla, only different. RedCap Valet is administering the program and is helping to track drivers' behind-the-wheel behavior, including keeping records on speed, acceleration, and braking habits. General Motors representatives didn't respond to a our request for further details about how many people will be chosen for the program or how these folks were picked to participate in "Drive My Way." Through November, the Volt's sales were down 23 percent from a year earlier to about 13,000 units, so any momentum for the 2016 version is a good thing. If you're just looking for numerical improvements, the new version has got you covered. It can go as far as 53 miles on electricity alone (about 15 miles further than the previous generation model) and it's got better miles per gallon and MPGe ratings as well. Of course, numbers alone aren't usually enough sell a car. Experience counts. So we ask, dear readers, if having a 2016 Volt brought to you for a half-hour test drive might make it more likely that you'll buy one of these extended-range plug-in vehicles. While you're waiting for a new Volt to arrive at your house, you can take a look here for our First Drive review.
