1957 Chevy Chevrolet 210 4 Door Post Project Car Almost Complete
Up for sale is my 1957 Chevy Chevrolet 210. Been working on this car for a number of years, and finally decided it's time to move on.
I have too many other hobbies and projects, so my loss is your gain.
I'll try to be as detailed as possible, but I'm sure I'll forget something,
Essentially the car doesn't need much to be completed. Paint, some miscellaneous parts and re-assembly.
Most of the hard work has been done for you.
Recently the car had sat for over a year while I was busy working on projects around my house, and I had to replace the starter, battery and fuel pump.
(I drained the tank, and started with fresh fuel.)
ALL ARE NEW, and the car starts but it does idle a little rough. Could use a carb cleaning / rebuild.
I'm going to outline the details of the car below, hopefully this will help answer as many questions as possible.
Body:
The body has no major rust, with the exception of the front fenders in front of the doors. A common place to rust.
The only significant amount of bondo on the car is in the afore mentioned lower front fenders in front of the doors.
The floor and trunk pans have been replaced and are solid.
The car is primed with epoxy primer underneath a layer of 2K primer, with the exception of the top.
It needs some basic body work, and blocking to be ready for paint.
All glass is driver quality. (Brand new still in the box front windshield.)
Suspension:
The car has a 4" drop. Spindles, Springs, and blocks in the rear.
All of the front end parts are new, it was rebuilt and aligned.
The car has a power brake conversion from Matt's Bowties, front disc and rear drums.
Tires are in OK shape. They are large whitewalls. I would say two of four are decent.
Engine:
The engine is a 265 with an Edelbrock intake and Edelbrock 200CFM carb.
The generator was replaced with a standard alternator and conversion bracket from Classic Chevy.
The fuel pump is NEW.
The starter is NEW.
The radiator is a 4 row from Classic Chevy, and will support a 350 if you convert.
The motor has less than 3000 miles since rebuild.
I also still have the original intake & carb, if you are looking for an "original" car.
Driveline:
The transmission is a brand new 700R. This transmission will also bolt up to a 350.
It has been converted from 3 on the tree (used to have an inline 6, I no longer have that engine) to Automatic.
B&M Shifter on the floor.
Parts:
Brand new in the box front windshield.
Brand new in the box door sill plates.
Brand new in the box NOS Seat Covers (Navy Blue)
Visors have been recovered in Navy Blue.
Navy Blue Vinyl, about 6 yards to finish interior panels, etc.
Stainless Trim, driver quality, most pieces can be reused, some will need to be replaced.
Door Panels (in bad shape), needs new but I have the vinyl to cover them.
Front Bumper, hood bar, and grille bar. All driver quality.
Rear Bumper is like new, driver quality tail sections.
Blue dot brake lenses, NEW.
Billet review mirror w/flames.
Billet round peep mirrors w/flames.
Rear Fender Skirts
Brand new windshield clips, hardware.
Brand new windshield rubber.
Rear ORIGINAL back glass.
Side window glass.
All door handles, inner and outer.
Finned Original Chevy 265 Valve covers.
Brand new CHROME oil breather caps.
DISCLAIMERS:
I know I'm most likely forgetting a lot of extra parts. Most of what I have for the smaller items are new as far as I recall.
The car really doesn't need much to finish. What is missing or not of good quality can be found at most swap meets or bought through Classic Chevy.
The car is located EAST of Orlando, FL with a CLEAN Florida title IN HAND.
The car is sold as is / where is.
The buyer is responsible for pickup / and / or delivery. I will not deliver.
Absolutely NO TRADES will be considered. I have enough hobbies / projects already.
The car is for sale locally as well, and I reserve the right to end the auction early.
Upon sale, a $1000.00 NON-REFUNDABLE PayPal deposit is required.
Good luck and happy bidding!!!
If you have questions about something I did not cover here, call me directy @ THREE 2 ONE-804-3033. (NO TEXTS) Please try not to call after 10PM EST.

GM to squeeze out more production capacity for midsize trucks
Tue, May 26 2015General Motors was predicting a strong showing for the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon before they debuted, and demand among dealers for the midsize trucks even exceeded company's expectations. The positive situation has left GM with a problem, though: finding ways to increase capacity for the pickups at the Wentzville Assembly plant in Missiouri. With a third shift already running, GM has continued to look for ways to build just a few more of the trucks at the plant. The company has plans to hire as many as 1,000 more workers for the Saturday and Sunday shifts to construct an additional 2,000 pickups a month, according to unnamed insiders at the factory speaking to Automotive News. The little adjustments even extend to getting rid of an unpaid break to add 18 minute of assembly time over the course of a day, which equals about 3,500 more vehicles a year. All of this effort comes because the trucks are in such high demand. According to GM's figures, the company has delivered a combined 35,720 units of the Colorado and Canyon from January through April 2015, and the Chevy was the fastest-selling truck in the US for the previous three months. In May, it spent an average of just 12 days in showrooms before being snapped up. And even better for the company, 43 percent of these buyers came from other brands. According to Automotive News, the most popular trade-ins have included the Ford F-150, Toyota Tacoma, and Dodge Dakota. Related Video:
Are you the 2014 Corvette Grand Sport?
Thu, 21 Feb 2013When are stripes more than just stripes? Follow up question: Is the product development team at Chevrolet really cocky enough to hide the next C7 Corvette variant in plain sight? This very recently spotted, and ostensibly obscured C7 asks a lot more questions than it answers, but there's at least some evidence to support that it might be the next Corvette Grand Sport.
The first and most obvious tip-off that something is up with this 'Vette revolves around those silver stripes. Obviously the stripes themselves don't necessarily denote a new model. However, when Chevy recently launched its "colorizer" website for the Stingray, there was no provision made for racing stripes - solid colors only.
Grand Sport exhibit number two is actually an incriminating lack of badges. The production Corvettes we've seen to date have all carried Stingray badges on their fenders, just behind the vent. The car seen in these images has no such badges, which is an intriguing omission on an car that looks like a production-spec vehicle otherwise.
Recharge Wrap-up: U of M wins Solar Challenge, family attempts record-breaking e-bike ride
Thu, Aug 14 2014The University of Michigan Solar Car Team has won the 2014 American Solar Challenge. It is the team's eighth national championship, its fifth in a row, and its first using Siemens' product lifecycle management (PLM) software. The race took place over 1,722 miles and seven days traveling across eight states. The team's car, called "Quantum," outpaced the nearest competitor by four hours. Looking forward, Michigan Solar Car Project Manager Pavan Naik says, "The switch to Siemens tools will give us the ability to model and simulate everything and truly allow us to optimize the performance of our new vehicle. As we start on our quest to win the World Solar Challenge in 2015, we'll be leveraging a full complement of PLM solutions." Read more in the press release below. The EcoCar3 competition, in which teams will convert Chevrolet Camaros into hybrid electric cars, begins in September. The various college teams will have four years to lessen the car's environmental impact as much as possible while maintaining performance and, of course, that cool Camaro design. EcoCar3, which is put on by the US Department of Energy and General Motors, kicks off with a workshop in Novi, Michigan from September 16 - 18. Read more at the DOE website at the dedicated EcoCar3 site or watch the announcement video at our previous post. Zap and Jonway Auto are shifting to a high rate of EV production. Zap already has two lines creating the Urbee EV to met demand, and is switching over a third to make electric minivans and SUVs. The company aims to produce 30,000 EVs by 2015 for the Chinese market. Zap says it has a backlog of 25,000 Urbee orders. Read more in the press release below. A family of four hopes to make a world record-breaking, 6,000-mile electric bike journey this fall. The family, which recently drove from Argentina to Montana in a pickup with a camper, will ride from Montana to Maine, then down the East Coast to Florida in an attempt to break the record for longest electric bicycle ride. They'll use two bikes. The Father, Thomas, will ride one of the bikes carrying one of the children, while the rest of the family rides in a support vehicle, with the mother, Dylan, riding the second bike when they can find others to drive. They have started a crowdfunding campaign for some of the equipment needed to document the trip. See the video below or read more at Treehugger.
