1963 Chevrolet Bel Air Wagon Barn Find!
Below is a list of the equipment on the car:
This car was pulled earlier this year from the same spot in Montana where it had sat since it was last registered in 1979 (the license plates showed a 1980 expiration) . It comes with the original owners manual and protection plan and some paper work from previous owners. It was sold new in Missoula MT (has dealer emblem on tailgate that matches the original paperwork.) I am the third owner. The last owner bought it in 1976. My intention was to restore it but I have other projects and would rather it go to someone that will take it to the next level. It would be a great candidate to swap in a built motor.
Condition wise the car has rust the bottoms of the front fenders, spare tire well, the doors have some rust on the driver’s bottom corner as well as a spot ahead of the rear wheel on the drivers side. The frame and floors appear to be very clean other than the one small (nickel size) hole on the passenger side and a spot at the end of the drivers and passengers side floor brace. There are some dents on the driver’s side doors and the rear corner on the driver’s side has small hole in the rear corner where it was pulled on. There is a soft dent on the rear quarter on the passenger side. The paint is weathered with some patina. The chrome bumpers and stainless trim are in nice shape and free of pitting. The interior has a cracks in the dash and the front seat has a cover as its not in good shape the back seat is in good shape except for the top corner, the door panels also show some wear. the headliner is in very nice shape with one small inch long tear. The windshield is cracked but the rest of the glass is in nice condition. The one rear bumper corner is bent but I have another one that goes with the car. Some of the side trim is missing you can see the clips still on the car in the pictures. All the doors and windows operate freely including the tailgate. It has a new master cylinder, new NOS tail light lenses and wheels and tires. The wheels are 15 inch Weld drag lites, the tires have 85-90% of their tread and are in very good condition with hardly any use . I also have all 5 of the original 14x6 Wagon/409 specific wheels if someone is interested to buy them separately. The car is very original. It runs and drives (engine actually idles quietly) but, the engine smokes. I have driven it a few miles and it steers straight and drives well. The transmission shifts well through the gears. But, It should not be driven more than a few miles because the engine smokes and before having the rest of the brake system checked. It has a current title and registration.

2015 Chevy Spark will have lighter, smaller battery
Thu, May 15 2014As General Motors gets ready to release the 2015 Chevy Spark EV, it is retooling the Brownstown Battery Assembly to build a new battery system for the chirpy little electric car. The new Spark will lose a few pounds and kWh from its lithium-ion pack, but it will keep all of it's performance specs. The current Spark EV uses a 21-kWh lithium-ion battery pack with bits made by A123 Systems (known as B456 Systems during bankruptcy). For the 2015 model, GM is going to build a 19-kWh battery system in-house that will use 192 LG Chem cells. Losing a bit of energy capacity means that the battery system for the 2015 Spark EV will be 86 pounds lighter but it will keep the EPA-rated 82-mile range and 119 MPGe. The 2015 Spark EV also keeps its $26,685 (plus destination) starting price from the 2014 model. The car will once again qualify for a federal tax credit of up to $7,500. LG Chem also supplies the cells for GM's other plug-in vehicles from its facility in Western Michigan. The Brownstown production line currently builds the battery packs for the Chevy Volt, the Opel Ampera and the Cadillac ELR. You can read our first drive of the 2014 Chevy Spark here. Brownstown Battery Assembly Expands Capabilities Will build battery system for 2015 Chevrolet Spark EV 2014-05-14 DETROIT – General Motors will bring all its electric vehicle battery building capabilities in-house with production of battery systems for the 2015 Chevrolet Spark EV at its battery assembly plant in Brownstown, Mich. "Using our in-house engineering and manufacturing expertise enabled us to deliver a battery system that is more efficient and lighter than the 2014 Spark EV without sacrificing range," said Larry Nitz, executive director of GM global transmission and electrification engineering. "Our successful working relationship with LG Chem has allowed us to deliver a new battery system for the Spark EV that helps us to better leverage our economies of scale." A newly designed battery system features an overall storage capacity of 19 kWh and uses 192 lithium ion cells. The cells are produced at LG Chem's plant in Holland, Mich. The battery system weight of 474 lbs. is 86 pounds lighter than the system in the 2014 Spark EV. The Spark EV battery is built on a dedicated production line at Brownstown, which also manufactures complete battery packs for the Chevrolet Volt, Opel Ampera and Cadillac ELR.
China's rise, global restructuring wither GM's Korea division
Wed, Jan 7 2015An article in the Daily Kanban suggests the sun is setting on GM Korea, and it could already be well into dusk. GM Korea came about when General Motors, along with co-investors SAIC and Suzuki, bought Daewoo Motors from parent company Daewoo Group in 2001; it had a previous tie-up with GM, a joint venture that ended in 1992, although Daewoo cars were based on GM cars until 1996. Over the decade following the purchase, it became such an important part of operations that it was renamed GM Korea in 2011, "to reflect its heightened status in [the] global operations of GM." Just two years later, the printed rumors were that the subsidiary responsible for a fifth of Chevrolet's global production could be shutting down. The division's sales were down almost 21 percent through November of last year, counting domestic South Korean sales, exports, and CKD – Complete Knock Down – products. That makes the labor strife, already an issue for four years, even more acute, reports say the subsidiary will lose $36 million a year if it can't get the job and wage cuts it wants, and government concessions can't make up for the losses. And it gets worse, so head over to Daily Kanban to read the rest of the story.
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.
