1957 Chevrolet BelAir 4 Door SURVIVOR!! VIN shows this is a factory V8 model Bel Air. This is a project I am selling because of my inability to finish. It has taken a great deal of time to get it to this point. Everything is bone stock 1957 Bel Air except the following items have been changed: It is currently setup with a 1982 LM1 Chevrolet Small Block 350 with 4 bolt mains. Someone 'procured' the Offenhauser Hi-Rise intake and 750 Holley double pump carb while those parts were being stored. Heads have been ported. This can easily be seen with the intake now gone. Storage debris has landed in the lifter valley area and would need cleaning before going further. Engine has been setup in place utilizing the original 1957 stock Chevrolet twin point mounts at the front of the engine block. 4 Speed Transmission is all setup with mounts, bell housing, flywheel, clutch and pressure plate fully installed. Driveshaft is installed in car as well. Dual exhaust is under car but not hooked up to the engine. Master cylinder and power brake booster bolted to firewall. Heavy duty cross flow radiator installed but not yet fully mounted. Close, but not finished. EVERYTHING else is stock 1957 factory correct Chevrolet Bel Air. Dash is not chopped up, stock steering wheel with unbroken horn ring, stock instruments with 110,000 miles showing. Car has NEVER been repainted and sports the original Ivory White over Turquoise paint. There is rust through in several places throughout (see pictures) but certainly not requiring giant patch panels to replace with the possible exception of the passenger front fender back lower section. Car has NEVER HAD A MAJOR ACCIDENT. This car has had only ONE REGISTERED OWNER it's entire life and that was the woman that owned it until her death in 1988. Furthermore, this car has only resided in Oregon since new and we do NOT salt the roads in the winter here so you do not see as much rust and corrosion in the body and on the frame as you might in many other states that do salt the roads. Most rust you see is surface only. Missing grille, hood latch and rear trunk lock. Hood and deck lid will be held in place by bungee cord for safe shipping. Seats were rotted from sun damage and were tossed but I saved some of the parts from them and these remaining parts are in the car now (see pictures). Headliner is removed but all bow pieces are in car as well. Any trim you see missing on the outside of the car is sitting in the car (see pictures). Both the i.d. plate on the firewall and vin plate on driver's door post are present and neither has ever been tampered with. Car is sold with bill of sale only. Titles are available on line. That is buyer's responsibility after purchase. Car is sold as is, just the way it is presented within the 24 pictures provided. Nothing is being held back or glossed over. What you see is what you get. $500 down payment must be paid within 48 hours of close of sale. Balance must be paid within 7 days of close of sale. I will store for up to 30 days for free to assist with buyer arranging adequate shipping and will assist in any way I can with the actual loading of the vehicle for transport after sale.

GM recalls 3.6 million vehicles for airbag-software problems

Fri, Sep 9 2016

The Basics: General Motors is recalling 3.64 million vehicles across its lineup for an airbag-related issue. The recall covers the 2014-2015 Buick LaCrosse, Chevrolet SS, and Spark EV; 2014-2017 Chevrolet Corvette, Trax, Caprice PPV, Silverado 1500, Buick Encore, and GMC Sierra 1500; and 2015-2017 Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, Silverado HD, GMC Yukon, Yukon XL, Sierra HD, Cadillac Escalade, and Escalade ESV. The Problem: Affected vehicles have a sensing and diagnostic module that controls the airbags and seat-belt pretensioners. The software it uses has a defect that can prompt the module to run a diagnostic test under specific driving conditions, which will also deactivate the front airbags and pretensioners. This means that it would be possible for those safety systems to not activate in a crash, potentially leading to injury or death. Injuries/Deaths: General Motors began an investigation that led to the recall after a 2014 Silverado was involved in a crash in which the airbags did not deploy. No information was given as to injuries or deaths. The Fix: Owners can bring their vehicles to a local General Motors dealer where a software update will be installed to fix the issue. The fix will be free of charge. If you own one: General Motors will contact owners of affected cars, and owners can check whether their vehicles are affected by visiting entering their vehicle identification numbers at either the GM Owner Center website or the NHTSA website. Owners can then schedule a time to have the update installed. Related Video:

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
