For sale is a very nice unmodified original 1958 Chevrolet Biscayne 2 door sedan. I'm very hesitant to sell this car but I want to put air ride and Fenton speed parts on it and everybody says leave it alone. Here's your chance before I violate it's originality. I had my eye on this car for a couple years and last year I went after it and bought it. The interior seat covers were original and the front had worn through and the front seat foam was starting to break down. I pulled the seats and had brand new stock seat covers put on from CARS INC., I also had the seat foam and burlap replaced front and back. I wanted it to be as comfortable as new again. While apart, new factory style carpet was installed, I replaced the original kick panels with new and a new rear package tray was also put in. Door panels are original and still look pretty nice. The dash is all original and very nice and has it's radio delete plate, the owners manual is still in the glove compt. All gauges look nice and all function, the odometer still works but the speedometer does not, so it's something in the head. Mileage is listed as original on the title from the DMV in Indiana and from the overall wear I'd say it is. Every other thing on the car works, steering wheel, pedals and all trim looks very clean, car definitely appears to have been very well cared for and preserved since new, and must have been kept out of the elements. All wiring is original and never been cut or cobbled. All weatherstripping appears original and still soft, door jambs still have original paint as does the trunk and is still very clean. Original horn sounds like a freight train coming and you can scare the bjesus out of someone. Master cylinder was just rebuilt and all brakes were gone through, bearings packed and all new brake hoses within last hand full of years. Clutch works perfectly and trans shifts like new, car drives like it did back in 1958. The 235 Six cylinder runs very nice and has automatic choke and fires right to life up on fast idle when cold. All sheet metal appears original, inner and outer rockers and trunk pan are very solid, floors have had a couple small patches welded in at some point and didn't appear to need any more than that. All exterior sheet metal is very nice, slight amount of work done above the headlights was done back when car was repainted but must have been very minor pitting, no evidence of work when looking from inside the fenders at the back of the headlights. That was probably 15-20 years ago and there is very small bubbling in that area only. Paint presents itself nicely for a couple decades old with no fading but does has some minor touch up here and there. It's no longer show paint but is very nice driver quality. Still has one original T3 headlight. Under hood is very clean, firewall has original paint, underside of hood was sanded and repainted back when and still looks new. Trunk is all original and clean, minimal surface rust under original trunk mat, underside of deck lid clean and still has spare tire instructions on it, jack and all hardware is there with newer radial spare. Original wheels with radial tires make the car drive great and I wouldn't be afraid to drive this car anywhere. Front bumper section is faded but the rest is nice and the car is overall very clean, and has always been well maintained. It also comes with matching fender skirts but that's not my style. The Airstream in the photo's is not for sale and is not hooked up to the car, I just wanted it in the picture. I really, really hate to give this car up, I was born in 58 and I'm a Chevy guy. I'll probably never be able to afford one in my price range again, I just have too many toys, I'm getting older and need to simplify my life a little. Indiana title is clear.You are welcome to come look at the car before auction ends. Please do not bid if you have less than 10 transactions and 100% positive feedback or I will cancel your bid. Sorry, just been burned a few times over the years and it's cost me plenty. I've tried to describe everything as accurately as possible, I will update if I've forgotten anything. Please ask questions if you feel the need. There are no guarantees on this 55 year old car. Auction can end at any time, I prefer cash. Good luck and thanks for looking!

Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506
Thu, 02 May 2013With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.
Some 2012-13 Chevy Volts may not have enough battery coolant
Mon, Jun 23 2014The 2012 and 2013 model year Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in vehicle may have a battery glitch caused by low coolant levels. No recall has been issued and General Motors is taking care of the issue at no cost to drivers. Some of the affected Volts may have lower-than-advisable coolant levels because of some pesky air pockets in the car's cooling circuit. When the coolant levels get too low, the charging system for the battery powering the car's onboard generator (i.e. the Rechargeable Energy Storage System, or the RESS) may be shut down, turning one's Volt into a run-of-the-mill gas-powered car, and a pricey one at that. The Car Connection says GM is advising owners of the '12 and '13 Volts to contact their local Chevy dealer for a free fix. GM representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from AutoblogGreen for more details. We believe this is a separate issue than the one that brought 8,000 Volts back to the dealers for a battery coolant fix, what GM called a "voluntary customer satisfaction effort," a few years ago. General Motors sold 23,094 Chevy Volts last year after selling 23,461 Volts in 2012, so that fix-it list may get fairly lengthy. Check out a GM-Volt.com user thread related to this issue here. *UPDATE: Chevrolet spokesman Randy Fox confirmed in an e-mail to AutoblogGreen that the company issued a service bulletin to dealers that they may need to top off coolant levels on certain Volts because of the issue, and that the vehicle will "return to normal charging operation" once that's done.
Weekly Recap: Geneva's splendor reflects growing demand for ultra-luxury cars
Sat, Mar 7 2015Geneva is one of the most glittering auto shows in the world, but the list of high-powered and bespoke luxury cars was decadent this year even by the rich standards of the Swiss exhibition. It's great for enthusiasts to revel in the flame-throwing Aston Martin Vulcan, the racing-inspired elegance of the Bentley EXP 10 Speed 6 concept and the insane performance of the Lamborghini Aventador LP 750-4 Superveloce, but there's a reason for all of this opulence: the luxury market is big business. And it's growing. IHS Automotive forecasts that so-called ultra-premium sales will nearly triple this decade from 123,000 to 353,000 units around the world. The estimate includes brands like Aston Martin, Bentley, Ferrari and Rolls-Royce, but doesn't count BMW, Mercedes and Audi, which offer less expensive models in addition to their high-end flagships. Though IHS includes Porsche and its relatively large volume in the study, the ultra-premium segment is still set grow at about the same rate, even without the German automaker's figures. So what is propelling all of this growth in the most expensive segment of the auto industry? Put simply, there's more rich people. IHS Automotive principal analyst Tim Urquhart pointed to economic expansion in China, market recovery in the United States and a surge in the lucrative technology sector as contributing factors. This dovetails with a research report by UK-based Oxfam, an international relief organization, which found the world's richest one-percent owned 48 percent of global wealth in 2014, and it's expected to increase to more than 50 percent by 2016. View 17 Photos Carmakers are moving quickly to capitalize with new products, expanding their portfolios with low-volume speedsters like the 800-hp V12 Vulcan at Geneva, and plans to enter new segments, like Rolls-Royce's strategy to make an SUV. "Ultra-premium carmakers are looking to explore ways of growing their product offerings, and thus their bottom lines, in this most potentially profitable of segments," Urquhart wrote in a report on the Geneva show. In a nutshell, there are more choices for people with more money. It's a good time to have expensive taste. Other News & Notes 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata production launches It won't be long now.
