      Welcome to our listing for this Very Unique 1956 Chevrolet Belair 2DR HDTP Custom. This amazing Belair has a few outstanding and creative custom touches that you just don't see everyday. The Headlights and Tailights have been Frenched. The radio antenna was also frenched. The door handles have been shaved and a new "door popper" was installed to easily open the door. The hood and deck lid have also been shaved and finally a custom grille was added for the final touch. All these featured combined gives this 1956 Belair a very tasteful and outstanding look. There is also a custom "bra" (not shown) for those extended trips to keep the Belair safe from bugs and rocks. Finally we will include a custom car cover (not shown) to keep the Belair clean while your not out crusing the streets.

     The interior features custom upholstered  front bucket seats and the rear bench seat has been covered to match. The custom door panels were fabricated to match the seats and color coordinated carpet was installed.  The seats, door panels, and carpeting are all in very good condition and they look Super.

     The engine is a Chevrolet Small Block 400 CU IN, and the transmission is a automatic 700R. The engine runs perfectly and the transmission shifts smoothly. The engine compartment has had a good amount of chrome added (every car should have a little bling) and the intake is polished. One disclosure is the rear main on the engine is seeping slightly. The Belair also features power front disc brakes to stop the custom efficently.

     The Centerline wheels and BF Goodrich Tires compliment the look and stance of the Belair. The wheels are in great condition and the tires have only a few miles on them.

     The body on the 1956 is realitively straight (remember this is a big car with big panels and is painted black), but I wouldn't call it perfect. The custom work is very tasteful and was done properly. The paint was sanded and buffed to a "smooth high shine" and is very good showing only a few minor flaws, the only ones worth mentioning is on the right hand seam between the rear window and deck lid (see pic) where the paint has couple small bubbles and some chips where the deck lid closes at the bottom. On a scale of 1 to 10 this Belair is a strong 7 to a middle 8. Very Very Good, but not perfect.

     The undercarriage of the Belair is in good condition. There are no signs of holes in the floors, trunk, or on the frame. Remember this is a "driver quality" car and the underside shows signs of the car being driven. This Belair was built to drive and enjoy!

   The VIN on the Belair is an Iowa assigned VIN that reads VC56J141374 control number A19790. It looks like during the restoration the VIN was taken off and misplaced and an assigned number (matching the title VIN) was issued. This Belair has a clean and clear Nebraska title.

     In our opinion this is a "high quality" driver car. This is not a $75,000 nut and bolt restoration. If you are looking for perfect, this is probably not the car for you. If you are looking for a well above average driver quality car that commands a TON of attention, then this is the one you have been waiting to purchase. The previous owner had this car for a little over 4 years and did all the regular maintainence and upgrades.

     Most are asking in well in excess of $30,000 for a similar car. Here is one you can own for under $28,000 and drive it in current condition without having to spend the summer working on the car. The 1956 drives out great and looks amazing cruising down the street. Picture yourself at the local cruise night hanging out with friends and showing them this "Super Custom" that looks much more expensive than the asking price. Then you get the luxury of driving down the boulevard windows down and hearing all the compliments and thumbs up from passers by.

     This car is definately "on the money" and will sell quickly. The last car (1928 Ford Model A Hi-Boy Roadster) sold on e-bay the second day it was listed. This 1956 Belair is priced similar and won't last long. Don't wait! This one will be GONE!

Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile

Mon, 18 Nov 2013

The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.

GM Recalling 370,000 Trucks For Fire Risk

Mon, Jan 13 2014

DETROIT (AP) - General Motors is recalling 370,000 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups from the 2014 model year to fix software that could cause the exhaust components to overheat and start a fire. The recall includes 303,000 trucks in the U.S. and 67,000 in Canada and Mexico. All of the trucks involved have 4.3-liter or 5.3-liter engines. GM said eight fires have been reported, but no injuries. One garage was damaged, the company said. All of the incidents occurred in cold weather. The company is asking customers not to leave their trucks idling unattended. GM dealers will reprogram the software for free. The company will inform owners starting Jan. 16. The major recall announcement, which came on Saturday, marred the Silverado's winning of the 2014 North American Truck of the Year Award at the Detroit Auto Show on Monday.

Europeans ask Chevy to bring Volt back to Europe

Fri, Aug 14 2015

A group of French fans is asking for a jolt of support from General Motors to get the 2016 Chevrolet Volt across the pond. The Association Amperistes et Amis des Vehicules Rechargeables is running a Change.org petition that currently has 383 signatures out of a goal of 500. While the attempt is admirable, it's probably going to take a lot more than several hundred people for the model to make a return to the continent after the poor showing of the Opel Ampera – first-gen Volt's European cousin. The group's major argument for bringing a version of the second-gen Volt to Europe is that consumers need "an intermediate choice between expensive or range-limited pure electric cars and plug-in hybrids with a miserable electric range." Furthermore, such a vehicle would prod the competition to produce similarly efficient electrified models. They also lavish praise on the abilities of the Ampera for its long EV driving range. The supporters aren't entirely kind to GM in the petition, though, and claim the company excluded the original car from marketing efforts there. The Ampera actually enjoyed a strong European launch with more orders than initially expected and briefly topped the best-sellers list among EVs there. It was even named 2012 European Car of the Year. Those halcyon days didn't last long, and by 2014 sales fell off to a trickle. The waning reception caused GM's decision not to introduce a version of the new 2016 Volt there or in Australia. Related Video:
