Nice restorable 1957 Chevy 4 door sedan. This car is a factory Bel-air and it is a factory V-8 car. It has a freshened 350 engine in it with a mild hydrolic camshaft, with 600 cfm Edelbrock carb and aluminum intake manifold. It has HEI ignition, and a stock 350 turbo automatic transmission. Transmission will leak some if it sits a long time. It has been converted to an internally regulated alternator. It has a new aluminum radiator, It has dual exhaust with turbo type mufflers. It is all stock front to back on the rest of the car. The brakes are all stock and work great, the steering is nice and tight and steers easy. It is very reliable and can be driven daily. I rescued this car from a junkyard about 7 years ago and peiced it all back together. I have been driving it like you see it for the past 4 or 5 years. I cleaned and prepped the engine compartment and painted the firewall and frame all gloss black before I put the engine in and it is still fairly clean under the hood. The underside of the car has no issues that I found. The frame is boxed with no rust, all body mounts are good and even floors are nice. on the inside there is a few small holes in the drivers fllor pan, but it does not need replaced. I patched the bottom of the drivers front fender and it is good. It still has small rust around the headlight on driver side. The pass side fender is real nice, as is all 4 of the doors. rear floor pan and rear floors are all solid and dont need replaced. The quarter panels inside the rear door jambs need patched, and rear spots on the rockers. The trunk lid does have rust in it. No rust in the roof or around the windows, or below deck lid either. Overall it is a very solid car. The glass is all fair (age bubbles on some) crack in right front wing vent. Good windshield and rear glass and all of the window cranks work. It is missing the heater blower motor, but does have a good heater core. It is missing some parts of the kick panel vents. All outside lights work, headlights and tail. Inside functions NOT working are heater, dash lights, fuel guage, wipers, speedo. The temp guage works, alt charge light works, dome light works. I have all the bows for the headliner to go with. The front bumper is pretty good, the grille bar is excellent, and alI of the stainless is on it and in really good condition. I also had the fuel tank out and cleaned and installed a new sender and pickup. It worked for three weeks than the guage quit. As you can see from the inside, the origional color was gold and white. the pictures of the trunk look funny because I got some of it wet when i washed the car right before the pictures. I painted this car with base coat red to give it the rugged look. It is not a nice finish. This is a very fun car and you can drive it home about anywhere (if its not too cold) it has been very reliable and runs strong. It rides real nice at full speed down the interstate and I would trust it to go anywhere. It is for sale with the white ralley wheels and very good tires. If you want the 18" boss 5 spokes they will cost you $1000 more. The 18" wheels are new with used tires. I have a clear nebraska title in hand, there is no vin tag on body. This car is located in central Nebraska right off I-80 in Gibbon. You are welcome to come see it and test drive it. Thanks and good luck. I hav room to store this car inside for you for a reasonable amount of time as long as it is paid in full. You can text me or call. kyle 308 708 1955

Chevy Colorado, GMC Canyon get updated tachometers due to graphical error
Sun, Feb 8 2015After James Bearing bought a Chevrolet Colorado, he noticed a discrepancy between the truck's spec sheet and the truck's tachometer: Chevrolet said 3.6-liter V6 in the little pickup produces 305 horsepower at 6,800 rpm, but the the tachometer indicates a redline at 6,500 rpm. So either he wasn't making as much power as he was promised, or the tachometer display was incorrect. Bearing said he asked Chevy about it but got no response. Until now. A General Motors spokesman said the rev limiter is indeed set for 6,800 rpm, but the tach graphics "are slightly off" in the Colorado and the GMC Canyon, and submitted an SAE horsepower certification to back him up. If you're wondering how such a thing got past quality control... well, let's just say you're not alone. GM is going to fix "the graphics on future trucks," which makes it sound like Bearing will just have to learn to live with the indicated redline he's got. He could always pretend he's driving a sleeper, with four more ponies waiting to be unlocked in the danger zone for those who dare.

Chevy SS prototype spotted wearing Pontiac G8 clothes
Tue, 28 Aug 2012
Do not adjust your computer screen, you are not seeing the rebirth of the Pontiac brand. General Motors has chosen to use a G8 to disguise a test mule for the latest prototype of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The G8 was closely related to the Holden Commodore and Vauxhall VXR, the platform upon which the new Chevrolet performance model will be based. It should come as little surprise, then, that GM has opted to use the cladding from the former G8.
Thought the front clip of this mule is pure Pontiac, note the vents immediately behind the front wheel. That is a distinctive design hallmark of the Vauxhall VXR. Also note that this vehicle is right-hand drive, as the Holden and its Chevy counterpart will be very closely related. That likely includes potential drivetrains. The spy photos of this mule also reveal very wide rear tires, and rear wheels that do not match the fronts.
"Turbo" Chevrolet Camaro is a 700-HP fantasy car come to life [w/video]
Thu, 07 Feb 2013For a concept car built to promote an animated movie about a snail that wants to go racing, this thing ain't half bad. The outsized monster you see before you started life as a Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, and then went through a big-time Hollywood makeover before being positioned on the Chevrolet stand here in Chicago.
This 2013 "Turbo" Camaro Coupe is getting the promotion machine ratcheted up for a new DreamWorks tale by the name of, you guessed it, Turbo. Coming this summer, the movie will follow one snail's quest to become a race driver worthy of making the cut at the Indy 500. Like many DreamWorks vehicles before it, we're guessing that the petrolhead snail will star in a movie that adults (especially racing fans) with have no trouble watching with their kids. Check out the trailer below to see if you agree.
As for the car, we're told that it is "instrumental" in transforming Turbo from snail into racer. Helping the beastly pony car in this mighty task, is an ankle-cracking front splitter matched by a ungodly huge rear wing out back, a COPO hood and a supercharged (yes, supercharged) V8 engine making more than 700 horsepower. 24-inch wheels all the way around - 10-inches wide in front and 15-inches wide in back - should allow the "Turbo" Camaro to hook up with ease, as well.
