1957 Chevrolet 210 2 Door Sedan on 2040-cars
Battle Creek, Michigan, United States
1957 Chevrolet 210, 2 door, Sedan. Originally a straight 6, manual transmission. Now it has a Chevrolet 327 small block and a Muncie 4 speed manual transmission. Rear end is the stock original. Drivetrain- This was my late Fathers car. He has owned it for 30 years. This is a fair to good condition driver. The engine was completely rebuilt. Mild cam, Heads ported, cylinders bored, new pistons, Etc. New clutch, pressure plate, throwout bearing. The Muncie 4 speed transmission was rebuilt also. It is just a basic Muncie. It has headers, and a aluminum intake with a quadrajet on it. It has dual exhaust all the way to the bumper. If a better intake/Carb combo, a MSD distributor, and large exhaust were put on this, it would run bad ass. Right now it has a header gasket leak and the alternator belt slips. Recently The entire front end was rebuilt. New control arm bushings, ball joints, shocks, tie rods. wheel bearings, Brakes. The steering gear and steering column were also rebuilt. Interior- The interior was all brand new about 20 years ago. Headliner, seat covers, door panels, carpet, etc. The dash needs some attention. some pieces aren't correct, and some are missing. The heater and vent system have been a work in progress and will need some finishing. All the glass is there and unbroken. All new weatherstripping was installed as well. The Body- the paint is approximately 15 years old. My father wasn't rich, so rust was patched by brazing in sheet metal and using body filler. And some rust was just bondoed. Im not out to falsely advertise this car so the real deal is, If you want a solid fun hot rod, and wont cry if you get a scratch or dent this is it. If you want a super straight show car, You will need to probably repair or replace the quarters, doors, fenders, and trunk lid. 8 years ago we replaced the entire floor pan, cross braces, inner rocker panels, and some body mounts. So that part is done very nice. Well that's all I can think of. Feel free to ask questions. I have every single receipt for parts also. Buyer is responsible for vehicle pick up or delivery. Vehicle will not leave until I have the Cash in hand. Check out a short video of this car driving down the road. http://youtu.be/Y7xIAH5th5c |

Recharge Wrap-up: Detroit Electric teaser video, Nissan Leaf is Good Housekeeping "Tried and Tested"
Mon, Oct 20 2014Detroit Electric has a new teaser video and has updated its brand in preparation of the introduction of the SP:01. The refreshed logo uses a blue and white color palette, and the company has also given its website a new look. The teaser video, which gives a sneak peek at the exterior of the SP:01, shows the car taking form in the midst of an electrical storm. Watch the video or learn more in the press release below. Abengoa is celebrating the grand opening of a commercial scale cellulosic ethanol plant in Hugoton, KS. When running at full scale, the refinery will produce up to 25 million gallons of ethanol a year. The plant will also generate enough electricity to power itself and put some back into the grid. Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz was on hand for the dedication, saying, "Every gallon of cellulosic ethanol produced and used to fuel our vehicles reduces the impact of harmful greenhouse gas emissions by greater than 60 percent as compared to conventional gasoline." Learn more at Energy.gov. Good Housekeeping has named the Nissan Leaf one of its "Tried and Tested" vehicles. The magazine called the Leaf SL its top "Roomy Electric" vehicle in its November issue. The magazine's research institute evaluated the EV based on track and road driving, ergonomics and convenience features. Good Housekeeping made note of the car's "impressive" range, but according to Nissan's Fred Diaz, "the real beauty of the Nissan Leaf is that it's roomy and, best of all, fun to drive." Read more in the press release below. Quasar Energy Group produces compressed natural gas from sewage and garbage. It uses things like grains leftover from brewing Budweiser, food waste from a baseball stadium and sewage sludge to produce the gas through anaerobic digestion. The compressed gas can then be used to power cars like Chevrolet's Bi-fuel Impala, which goes on sale later this year. Chevrolet likens the situation to the Delorean time machine in the Back To The Future movie series, which uses garbage to fuel its fusion generator.

Recharge Wrap-up: EVs poll well in Portland, Tesla seeks office space
Tue, Aug 5 2014In a poll of drivers in Portland, more than 80 percent said they would be driving an EV in the next 10 years if they weren't already. The poll was small and not scientific, with just 218 votes cast, but it does reflect a slice of a certain population with changing attitudes toward electric mobility, and 80 percent is an impressive figure. Additionally, 43 percent of respondents planned to have an EV in the next five years, and only 18 percent said they prefer gasoline-powered vehicles. With EVs in many ways repeating the adoption process that hybrids went through a decade ago, the five- or ten-year timeframe for more widespread use seems only natural.

His Chevrolet Volt has been ticketed for parking six times since he took office. Granted, those street-sweeping signs are tough to keep track of, but his car has been photographed blocking at a bus stop while grabbing a burrito (who hasn't sinned in the name of a delicious burrito?), and was even caught parked in a crosswalk. The tickets were all dismissed. Read more from the SF Gate. Tesla is looking for office space in Silicon Valley. As the electric car company continues to search for a place to build its $4- to $5-billion battery Gigafactory, it also needs some real estate to expand its operations near its Palo Alto home. Tesla has expanded from 3,000 to 6,000 California-based employees since the end of 2012, and plans to add 500 more by the end of the year. It is currently looking for 200,000 to 300,000 square feet of office space close to its Fremont factory, according to sources in the real estate industry.

GM recalls 330,000 fullsize trucks for airbag replacement
Sun, May 31 2015General Motors has announced a recall of 330,198 fullsize pickups in the US in the aftermath of the announcement made on May 19 that doubled the number of vehicles being called in to replace Takata's defective airbag inflators. That announcement expanded the nationwide recall to an estimated 33.8 million vehicles in the US. Heavy Duty versions of the 2007 and 2008 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra are included in GM's move, for the purpose of replacing the passenger airbag inflators. The announcement made by the National Highway Traffic Safety Association cited long-term exposure to moisture as a possible cause of the inflator issues. GM says it isn't aware of any problems with the recalled pickups due to moisture, nor has it had any reports of crashes, injuries, or fatalities, and has not received any complaints. GM will notify owners, who can then take their trucks to the dealers to have them repaired free of charge. You'll find a statement from GM and the recall notice from NHTSA below.
