1957 Chevy Bel Air 2 Door Post V-8 3 Speed Automatic Transmission Rally Wheels Recent Paint, Interior, and Windshield Offered for sale is one of America's most desirable cars...the 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air. The Bel Air was the highest model, and this is the 2 door post model. As you can see in the photos, it's a good looking car. The trim is intact, the body looks great, and the interior has been redone. It has been raining here for the past few days, so I put off taking pictures, but the forecast shows more rain, so I decided to go ahead and take them. The car is shiny when it's not wet. It's paint is smooth, no visible rust or bubbles, and the glass is all good. The windshield and rubber seal were replaced last week, so they're perfect. I tried to get a picture from every angle so you can see how it all lines up. It can be driven just like it is, and you can fly in and drive it home if you are the adventurous type. The car starts easily, idles well, steers, shifts, and stops like it should. It has a great sounding small block V-8 with dual exhaust. Not loud, but sounds excellent. I don't know if it's a 283, 327, or 350. It could very well be the original engine...but I don't know. It has a 3 speed automatic transmission, which replaced the factory Powerglide. The interior was replaced and looks good, as seen in the pictures. The headliner, door panels, and carpet all look great. It's a car you can buy and drive without having to do a lot of work to it. It's a good 5-10 footer, but if you've tried to find cheap 57 Chevys, it's near impossible. I don't have access to a lift, so I can't get photos of the underneath. The trunk, areas around the windshield and rear window, and the cowl and firewall all look solid. The car is being listed to be sold. Please, no games or dreamers. You either want the car and can pay for it, or you can't. Let's not make this harder than it has to be. If you want to see it first, please inspect BEFORE the auction ends. You're bidding to win, not to set up a future date to look it over. Serious buyers will know what to do. I can add a Buy it Now if you want me to do that, or I can end the auction early for those who just can't wait. I'll help any way that I can. I can send additional pictures if you send me your email address, and I can't get you in touch with the owner if there's anything you need to speak to him about. I have a clean, clear title in hand that's ready to hand off to the new owner. The car will not leave my possession until all funds have cleared. If we agree on a price and I end the auction early, the payment should come quickly. If you want to wait and see how the auction turns out, that's your call. I don't think it will go the full 7 days, but time will tell. These 57s are getting harder and harder to find. You can reach me at northshorebill@aol.com, or call/text me at 941-740-2277. Texts and emails usually get a quicker response than calls. The car is located in Port Charlotte...about 90 miles south of Tampa on Florida's Gulf Coast. I am about 10 miles off of I-75, so driving it home or shipping. It will be quick and painless to get on the road heading home. Thanks for looking, and Happy Bidding !!! On Jun-05-14 at 10:20:22 PDT, seller added the following information: Just a quick update. Two people felt the need to write and say the car is a 210, and not a Bel Air. They say there is chrome missing, which is possible. They say it should have more. That's possible too. When I wrote them back, I didn't get a reply. I'm going by the VIN or serial number, if you prefer it to be called that. It starts with a "V". That means it was a factory V-8 car. 6 cylinder cars started with an A, B, or C...not a V. A= a 150 model, B= a 210 model, and C= a Bel Air. This is a VC car, and shown on the serial number plate photo from inside the driver's door. I didn't go by the chrome that is or isn't there...I went by the actual number of the car. You decide for yourself. I'm going with the facts that I can prove. REAL Bel Air, REAL V-8 CAR. LOWERED RESERVE!!! Don't miss out, it looks like the car will sell. I can end the auction early for the right price. If no one offers that price, the auction will go to the end and everyone can bid what they feel it's worth to them. Good Luck |

GM cutting Chevy Sonic, Buick Verano production by more than 20%
Sat, Jun 13 2015General Motors' Orion Assembly plant in Michigan is seeing even more production cuts this year to further reduce inventories of the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano. These latest adjustments mean layoffs for about 100 workers in phases starting in July. "GM Orion Assembly will adjust plant production capacity to better align with market demand," the company said in a statement announcing the change. Through May, sales of the Sonic are down 28.5 percent to 29,082 vehicles, and the Verano is off 15.6 percent, with 15,279 sold this year. According to unnamed plant insiders speaking to Automotive News, the assembly rate is slowing at Orion Assembly from the current 33 cars an hour down to 26 an hour, a 21-percent reduction. GM is also reportedly going to keep the plant idle for three weeks during the normal summer shutdown, rather than the usual two. Earlier in the year, the factory was idled for two weeks due to excess supply of the Sonic and Verano. In March, it was closed again for several days for the same reason. The Orion Assembly plant is the future home to the line for the Chevy Bolt EV. GM Statement: GM Orion Assembly will adjust plant production capacity to better align with market demand. A phased layoff of approximately 100 employees will begin in July 2015 and conclude by year-end.

GM seeks national mandate for zero-emissions cars
Fri, Oct 26 2018DETROIT — General Motors says it will ask the federal government for one national gas mileage standard, including a requirement that a percentage of auto companies' sales be zero-emissions vehicles. Mark Reuss, GM's executive vice president of product development, said the company will propose that a certain percentage of nationwide sales be made up of vehicles that run on electricity or hydrogen fuel cells. GM says a nationwide program modeled on such a requirement in California could result in 7 million electric vehicles, or EVs, on U.S. roads by 2030. California wants 15.4 percent of vehicle sales by 2025 to be EVs or other zero emission vehicles. Nine other states, including Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey and New York, have adopted those requirements. In January, California Governor Jerry Brown set a target of 5 million zero-emission vehicles in California by 2030. The Trump administration criticizes California's ZEV mandate, saying it requires automakers to spend tens of billions of dollars developing vehicles that most consumers do not want, only to sell them at a loss. Reuss told reporters that governments and industries in Asia and Europe "are working together to enact policies now to hasten the shift to an all-electric future. It's very simple: America has the opportunity to lead in the technologies of the future." A national mandate also would create jobs and reduce fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and "make EVs more affordable," Reuss added. GM, the nation's largest automaker, will spell out the request Friday in written comments on a Trump administration proposal to roll back Obama-era fuel economy and emissions standards, freezing them at 2020 levels instead of gradually making them tougher. Under a regulation finalized by the Environmental Protection Agency at the end of the Obama administration, the fleet of new automobiles would have to get 36 miles per gallon by 2025, 10 mpg higher than the current requirement. But the Trump administration's preferred plan is to freeze the standards starting in 2021. Administration officials say waiving the tougher fuel efficiency requirements would make vehicles more affordable, which would get safer cars into consumer hands more quickly. GM on Thursday said it doesn't support the freeze, but wants flexibility to deal with consumers' shift from cars to less-efficient SUVs and trucks.
1983 Motorweek showdown pits Porsche 928S vs. Chevy Camaro Z28
Mon, Jan 12 2015Last month, Motor Trend threw the Camaro Z/28 and Porsche 911 GT3 into the bear pit and let them fight it out. Way back in 1983, MotorWeek had the same idea, comparing the Camaro Z/28 to the Porsche 928S. At the time, the Camaro was America's best selling sports coupe, the 928S was Porsche's top-of-the-line model that also had the highest top speed of any car sold here. And the price differential was even more stark then: $13,600 for the Camaro, $45,000 for the Porsche. That put the Z/28's cast-iron, 5.0-liter V8 with 190 horsepower and 240 pound-feet of torque against the all-aluminum 4.7-liter V8 with 234 hp and 263 lb-ft in the 928S. Even with that and the Camaro being 14 inches longer than the Porsche, the American was a surprising 40 pounds lighter than the German. The show took them to Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia to see how close a relative performance bargain could hang with a the German GT. Both had five-speed manual transmissions, but the high-speed corners and tight sections of Summit Point would test other handling variables, including the "bone-rattling" Camaro's solid rear axle and disc and drum brake setup vis-a-vis the four-wheel disc brakes and independent suspension on the "firm-but-smooth" Porsche. Paradoxically, the larger disparity 22 years ago resulted in a closer result. Check out the video to see how the Summit was won.
