1957 Chevy Bel Air 2 Door Hardtop California Boxed Frame Power Steering Brakes on 2040-cars
Garland, Texas, United States
OK, first of all so we are all clear, there is no VIN and no Title to this vehicle or its parts. I'm calling it a parts car or a builder if you have your own title. This was purchased to be restored and after blasting it we have decided to go in a different direction. It is a California boxed frame car, 1957 Bel Air 2 door hardtop. The body and all sheetmetal has been professionally blasted and Epoxy primered at a cost of 2,500. The chassis is original with a very rare 283 not sure if it is original to the chassis, with power steering and power brakes, all these parts are included as well as what is on the pallet in the picture. Also included is a full new floorpan from Ecklers from rocker to rocker and front to back, this cost 1,200. You also get a new decklid from Ecklers that cost 1,000 as well as a full left quarter panel from Ecklers that cost 1,000. That is all the replacement sheetmetal that will come with the car. No trim is included or windows, all that you get is on the pallet or setting on the car, no bumpers. The car has some rust, is is all very repairable as you can see, one door has rust inside it at the bottom and should be replaced, both fenders are solid except for at the bottoms where they need patched. Both quarters have rust under the side moldings and at the bottom. the hood has rust at the back edge but is repairable. Right side rocker panel and one floor brace need replacing and that is about it. The trunk is solid, roof is good and firewall. Minor rust in trunk gutter and around right front of windshield lower area. I highly recommend that you look at the car before bidding because I don't want any whining when you see it has some rust. It will be hard to load on a transport truck due to all the parts so if you intend to ship it you will have to arrange all of that and I will load it but they usually don't like to ship them with that many loose pieces. Any questions or concerns feel free to call at 972-496-3278 Again, NO TITLE or VIN numbers with this project car. Bill of sale will be provided. It is not a salvage title but I had to put something on it for ebay. Also, we can put the body on the chassis before pickup to help out with shipping it.

A car writer's year in new vehicles [w/video]
Thu, Dec 18 2014Christmas is only a week away. The New Year is just around the corner. As 2014 draws to a close, I'm not the only one taking stock of the year that's we're almost shut of. Depending on who you are or what you do, the end of the year can bring to mind tax bills, school semesters or scheduling dental appointments. For me, for the last eight or nine years, at least a small part of this transitory time is occupied with recalling the cars I've driven over the preceding 12 months. Since I started writing about and reviewing cars in 2006, I've done an uneven job of tracking every vehicle I've been in, each year. Last year I made a resolution to be better about it, and the result is a spreadsheet with model names, dates, notes and some basic facts and figures. Armed with this basic data and a yen for year-end stories, I figured it would be interesting to parse the figures and quantify my year in cars in a way I'd never done before. The results are, well, they're a little bizarre, honestly. And I think they'll affect how I approach this gig in 2015. {C} My tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015 it'll be as high as 73. Let me give you a tiny bit of background about how automotive journalists typically get cars to test. There are basically two pools of vehicles I drive on a regular basis: media fleet vehicles and those available on "first drive" programs. The latter group is pretty self-explanatory. Journalists are gathered in one location (sometimes local, sometimes far-flung) with a new model(s), there's usually a day of driving, then we report back to you with our impressions. Media fleet vehicles are different. These are distributed to publications and individual journalists far and wide, and the test period goes from a few days to a week or more. Whereas first drives almost always result in a piece of review content, fleet loans only sometimes do. Other times they serve to give context about brands, segments, technology and the like, to editors and writers. So, adding up the loans I've had out of the press fleet and things I've driven at events, my tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015, it'll be as high as 73. At one of the buff books like Car and Driver or Motor Trend, reviewers might rotate through five cars a week, or more. I know that number sounds high, but as best I can tell, it's pretty average for the full-time professionals in this business.
Here are the best-selling cars and trucks from January 2015
Fri, Feb 6 2015Every month, Autoblog slogs through all the sales figures reported by automakers that do business in the United States, and, after a little bit of sorting, we put it into an easy-to-read chart in an attempt to make it as easy as possible to follow the ins and outs of sales and shipments. But that only covers the brands themselves, not the individual models they sell. And we think you'd all be interested in knowing which vehicles beat their rivals in sales from month to month, so we've put together this handy gallery to keep you in the know. While the leader of the pack may not come as much of a surprise, the order that the top ten finishes in changes frequently – due to automaker deals, the price of gas, etc. – and we've included some statistics to help you see how their current performance stacks up to month's past.

Take a close look at the guts of the Chevy Volt battery, powertrain
Sat, Aug 9 2014Just how intimate would you like to get with the powertrain in a Chevy Volt? If you're anything like YouTube user d55guy, then spending a half hour filming yourself taking apart the battery pack, motor, inverter and more for a look inside sounds like your idea of fun. After all, this way you get to see the cooling system, the heavy safety kill switch and count up the individual cells in the battery modules. Fun! Turns out, we also enjoy languidly paced Volt dissection video goodness, and we think you might want to see it as well. So, we've embedded two videos below and if you don't have a better understanding of how the Volt is put together after watching them, well, at least you can't say we never tried to show you anything. Given that what's really happening here is the organized 'destruction' of an expensive and potentially dangerous object, let's talk safety. There's a serious disclaimer at the beginning of the videos and on the YouTube description page, but we feel the need to repeat the gist of it here: do not try this at home. The creator of the video says he is a trained engineer and has been doing things like this "for the better part of a decade," so he apparently knows what he's doing. With that in mind, watch it all below. When you're done seeing the insides of a Volt powertrain up close, if you need more filmed EV dissection/destruction, check out this video designed for first responders approaching a damaged Tesla Model S.
