1956 Chevrolet Convertible

Of all the classics we have owned this is by far the best quality and the most eye pleasing one we have handled to date. This is a fresh, just completed frame off restoration. When we traded for it it was about 90% finished. We finished the car and have driven it as to work out all the bugs. This one is about as close to perfect as they get.

The odometer cluster was rebuilt then set to zero. Car had six tenths of a mile at time of trade. Car now has only one hundred twenty miles. It's new and fresh

The paint work is of show quality. 56 Chev colors Harbor Blue and Nassau Blue. The new convertible top is Harbor Blue. New padding and new back window. The interior is all new and dead on the original. Carpet is new as is everything else.

All works on the car with exception of radio. We have tubes to make radio work-they came with car. We have blue seat belts not yet installed that come with car. Horn blows, all gauges work, speedometer works, all top components are new and it works fine. Yes original factory clock does work. All chrome is awesome quality. All the stainless is highly polished to show quality. All wiring is new, All nuts and bolts used throughout are new and all new under hood. Looking down the sides of her-she is straight. All stainless is straight.

Driving this car is fun. rebuilt original numbers matching motor and transmission were rebuilt. It starts, runs, and drives as good as any. New carburator and even a new air cleaner. They added the early style Corvette valve covers and as pictures show a high dollar aluminum radiator. If painted black it looks dead on the the original radiator. The engine compartment looks great and ready to be judged at any show.

All the exhaust is new, very quiet. All new exhaust, all new brakes, new bearings, all new bushings and rubber seals have been replaced. Top Notch restoration. I can't think of much that this car needs. Just hit the key and go.

As pictures show the bottom of car was finished out nicely and it also shows off the bright new gas tank. New gas lines, new brake lines, all new hangers and new fittings. I could rattle on and on forever about this beauty but the proof is in the pudding. Try to come to Lawrenceburg IN and check it out. It don't get any better than this. Be the first to enjoy a fresh restoration. If you bid and you are the winner and when you come to claim and you don't like it NOT a problem!!! Don't pay, we could careless. We will still give you good feedback and buy your lunch.

We used this car in a wedding and in order to make this car match the others we put on four new tires mounted on four new American Racing Wheels, neat set up. Some do prefer wide white walls. The w.w.w. tires are nice, Wheels painted harbor blue. Original hub caps have been redone with all new decals.

So it is your choice, you can have the four mags or the four w.w.w. with original 56 hub caps, your CHOICE

Not overseas unless you pay shipping. we work through a friend here in town who is a professional shipper. He is bonded and fully insured and hauls all over the country.

Suzuki recalls 2 million cars globally

Wed, Apr 22 2015

Suzuki is recalling two million vehicles across the globe, including a number of Chevrolet Cruze sedans that it builds for General Motors, because the ignition switches may begin to smoke. None of the Cruzes being recalled were sold in the US, though. This recall is limited to the Japanese, European and Australian markets. In Suzuki's home market, 1,873,000 vehicles are being recalled, including the Cruze and a number kei cars built for Mazda (the Carol and AZ-Wagon), as well as the automaker's own Alto, Wagon R and Swift. Affected vehicles were built between 1998 and 2009. The remaining 133,000 vehicles include Cruzes and other Suzuki products sold in Europe and Australia. There have been no reports of injuries or accidents due to the 67 reported incidents, all of which come from the Japanese market, a Suzuki spokesperson told Automotive News. Related Video:

Sinkhole Opens Up In National Corvette Museum, Swallows Eight Cars

Wed, Feb 12 2014

More cars are being moved inside the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Ky. to avoid falling down the same sinkhole that swallowed eight classic sports cars early this morning, Autoblog reported. Museum officials said the hole was discovered when motion sensors activated around 5:45 a.m. The rescue mission can be viewed on the museum's live feed cameras, which weren't working after the sinkhole emerged. A 1993 ZR-1 Spyder and a 2009 ZR1 "Blue Devil," both on loan from General Motors, were among the cars that fell into the sinkhole. The museum owned the other affected Corvettes, which included a 1963 Corvette, a 1984 PPG Pace Car and the 1 millionth Corvette ever produced. The state of the cars at the bottom of the hole isn't known, but trial lawyer and sinkhole expert Ted Corless said the cars may be a total loss for the museum and GM. "Most states, including Kentucky, exclude damage caused by sinkhole activity," he said. "There will be, in all likelihood, a claim made, but a lot of policies would specifically exclude these kinds of damages." Corless has 15 years experience dealing with sinkholes. He said that typically neither the building, nor the cars themselves are protected under their insurance policies. "I would have to say, more likely then not, they're going to have an uninsured loss measured in the hundreds of thousands of dollars." The museum is closed Wednesday while a structural engineer assesses the damage.
