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!

Nissan Leaf hits 3,000 sales in July, Chevy Volt climbs over 2,000
Fri, Aug 1 2014It was a good sales month for both the Nissan Leaf and the Chevy Volt, with the two 'elder statesman' plug-in vehicles reaching numerical milestones in July. The Leaf sold 3,019 units and the Volt crossed the 2,000 sales level for the first time in 2014, hitting 2,020 sales. With Tesla also announcing it is delivering around 2,500 Model S EVs a month (but that's globally, compared to the US-only numbers for the Volt and Leaf we're talking about here) and Ford's plug-in vehicles selling well, we are certainly in a golden moment for EV sales. The Volt was a bright spot for the Bowtie brand last month. For the Volt, the 2,020 units sold represents a 13 percent increase from July of 2013 even thought year-to-date sales are down 8.7 percent this year compared to last year. Overall, total Chevrolet deliveries for July 2014 were up eight percent compared to 2013, so the Volt was a bright spot for the Bowtie brand last month. On the Leaf front, this is only the second time that the EV has sold more than 3,000 units in a month (the other being in May of this year). The year-over-year increase for the Leaf was 62 percent in July and represents the 17th straight month of record sales, as Nissan is more than happy to report each month. Overall, Leaf sales are up 34.6 percent, year-to-date, and Nissan's director of Leaf sales and infrastructure, Brendan Jones, said in a statement that a free public charging incentive was responsible. "Since we launched the No Charge to Charge promotion in the first 10 markets, we've seen a surge in Leaf sales in those areas. Leaf sales in the northeastern US are also picking up with new tax incentives for Massachusetts and Maryland residents." With No Charge To Charge set to expand to 25 markets over the next year, we expect Leaf sales to continue to grow. We will have our monthly look at all green car sales available soon, so stay tuned.

Nissan Leaf sells 3,186 in best month ever as Chevy moves 2,511 Volts
Wed, Sep 3 2014The end of summer seems to inspire people to go out and buy a lot of plug-in vehicles. Last year, for example, the Chevy Volt had its best month ever in August, with 3,351 sales. This year, the Nissan Leaf is going up to the winner's podium, setting its own best-ever record with 3,186 units sold. This beats the Leaf's previous record by 69 vehicles. This beats the Leaf's previous record of 3,117 set in May 2014 by 69 vehicles and is up 31.7 percent from August 2013. Nissan is once again quick to remind us that the popular EV's record sales streak has now been extended to 18 months in a row. This record is simply noting that the current month, in this case August, had the highest sales that that month has ever seen in the US. Over all, US Leaf sales are up 34.1 percent so far this year. In a prepared statement, Nissan's director of Leaf sales and infrastructure, Brendan Jones, said that the Leaf is selling well on both coasts, including cities like Raleigh, Boston and Washington, DC. "It's what we call the 'cul-de-sac phenomenon,' where once someone in a community buys a Leaf, then friends, family, co-workers and neighbors see the benefits of this fun-to-drive electric vehicle firsthand and are sold on the idea of going electric," he said. The Volt also had a good month - its best of 2014 by almost 500 sales – but the 2,511 Volt sales still represent a drop of 25.1 percent from the excellent sales the Volt had this time last year. In fact, August 2014 represents the Volt's best sales month since, well, August 2013. Apparently, there's just something about the end of summer. As always, we are working on our in-depth round-up of green car sales across the country and will have that up soon.
Star Wars Car Drives To The Dark Side Of Comic Con
Tue, Jul 22 2014When it comes to designing coveted collectible toys for sale at Comic-Con, the annual celebration of pop culture lifting off Thursday in San Diego, the sky's the limit for the designers at Mattel. Fittingly, the building where Mattel's dreamers conceive of their limited-edition playthings is just down the street from the Los Angeles International Airport. Inside the colorful design center - a Hot Wheels-themed shuttle bus transports employees from Mattel's parking garage - the designers have spent the past year working on 10 toys created especially for the Comic-Con crowd, including a replica of the Batmobile from the upcoming game "Batman: Arkham Knight" and a 9-inch-tall action figure of Superman killer Doomsday. "We don't have to worry about retail. We don't have to worry about margins," said Doug Wadleigh, Mattel's senior vice president of global brand marketing for boys and entertainment. "We don't have to worry about operational efficiencies. We only have to worry about creating the coolest toys for our fans. Period." It also offers some escape from Mattel's reality these days. Like other toy makers struggling in this digital, video-centric age, the company is trying to remain relevant in the retail world. Core brands like Barbie have seen less of a demand, with a 14 percent drop in sales in the first quarter of this year. Mattel had a net loss for the first three months ending March 31 that totaled $11.2 million. But things will at least seem rosier at Comic-Con, where eager buyers for the toys await (the only other place they will be sold is on the Mattel collector's site). Mattel's exclusives this year run between $20 and $85, but elite toys can fetch much more when they're put up for auction. The crown jewel for Wadleigh and his team this year is a Darth Vader die-cast car, the first official collaboration from Hot Wheels and the "Star Wars" franchise. The car - imagine if a Chevrolet Corvette C5 and the villainous Sith lord's helmet had a baby - comes in a sleek black box and encased in a replica of Vader's lightsaber, complete with a swooshing sound effect. "We've been trying to partner with Lucasfilm and Disney on this property for a long time," said Wadleigh. A full-size working replica of the Vadermobile will be on display at Mattel's booth at the massive San Diego Convention Center.
