|
1963 Chevy Biscayne 2 door sedan 550hp Twin Turbo LS 5.3 .. Dare to be different...This is the ultimate sleeper still wearing its original 6 cyl badging, truly a Wolf in sheeps clothing .. Now is your chance to own This Biscayne, it has awesome patina that only mother nature, father time and the California sun and acid rain can create, looks like leopard print on roof hood and trunk.. It started life as a 6 cyl powerglide car from the gangland of Compton California wearing a real bullet hole in the left front fender…This Biscayne has tens of thousands of dollars invested not counting hours and hours of labor invested to build this cool ride… This car is the ultimate cruiser or street bruiser... Biscayne features a 550 hp twin turbo Chevy 5.3 LS on 4 wheel air bags and 4 wheel disc brakes.. This car is a million times more fun than any shiny trailer queen, don’t spend your weekends washing and waxing or worrying about something happening to your paint, spend it driving and enjoying.. Load up the kids and go get an ice cream, go fishing, go surfing, load up coolers, BBQ, chairs, and friends and family and go tailgating.. haul your tools and junk in it, you can eat and drink in it, lean on it, put a trailer hitch on it and tow your trailer queen, you can even have fun racing other unsuspecting hot rod owners. Don’t kid yourself this car was built for fun and will give you smiles from ear to ear when you stab the throttle and you hear the whine of the turbos spooling up throwing you back in the seats (this car runs hard).. This car was built to be enjoyed and driven, it gets more looks and attention when driven than any $150,000 shiny trailer queen…No need for an expensive garage to store it in, just a a slab of concrete and car cover will do.. This car runs on cheap high octane E85 fuel that will make the liberal tree huggers happy and is easy on your wallet… The great thing with turbos is they are a tame kitty kat when putted around but an animal when you stab the throttle… What’s more fun owning this car or watching your 401K balance fluctuate with every rotten thing the government does or worry that Rats like Bernie Madoff or the Enron scammers will take it? Eventually the piss-poor broke government will figure out how to dip into your hard earned money to fund their next scam/bailout, Just like they did social security, so invest in cars and memories enjoy it now… click on link to see the article written about it this month in CHEVYHARDCORE magazine http://www.chevyhardcore.com/news/battle-scarred-63-biscayne/ I addressed minor rust issues caused by window left down.. I replaced rear floor pans and patches front driverside floor as needed with reproduction floor pans.. great body mounts rockers floors and trunk.. This Biscayne is structurally sound and solid, but this car isn’t about perfection, its about patina and scars/bullet hole on the original paint creating the perfect distressed look as only time can do… If you understand this style of car then you will understand it is absolutely perfect in all its imperfections and is complete and finished. I encourage personal inspection prior to bidding, no joy rides…

Opel CEO talks new EV, will likely be fresh face for Chevy, too
Wed, Jul 23 2014The rumored demise of the Opel Ampera has been confirmed, but there's good news, too. Opel CEO Karl-Thomas Neumann has been busy Tweeting information about the brand's next plug-in vehicle, admitting that the Ampera is on the way out but that plug-in vehicles are here to stay. His Tweets, in full, read: After the eventual run-out of the current generation Ampera, we'll introduce a successor product in the electric vehicle segment. Our next electric vehicle will be part of our massive product offensive – with 27 new vehicles in the 2014-2018 time frame. We see eMobility as important part of the mobility of tomorrow and we will continue to drive down costs & deliver affordability. As we learned earlier this week, the Ampera will not be refreshed when the current Chevy Volt is updated, most likely because of slow sales. Opel sold just 332 Amperas in the first five months of 2014. For now, General Motors is still building Amperas in Michigan for export to Europe. So, what might this new EV mean for the General Motors plug-in fleet? Official spokespeople are being quiet, but we think it's safe to say the new EV Neumann is talking about is not simply a rebadged Chevy Spark EV. This is the first official word about an entirely new EV, and we expect it will come to both the Chevrolet and Opel brands.
NHTSA investigates 1.7 million GM SUVs for windshield wiper failures
Tue, Nov 6 2018WASHINGTON - The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said on Tuesday it is investigating whether General Motors should recall an additional 1.7 million sport utility vehicles due to an issue with windshield wiper failures. GM in August 2016 recalled 367,800 2013 GMC Terrain and Chevrolet Equinox SUVs in the United States to address the problem. But after receiving 249 complaints about similar problems, the federal agency said it is probing whether the recall should be expanded to include an additional 1.7 million vehicles from the 2010-2016 model years. The automaker said it is cooperating with the NHTSA review. GM said it recalled the 2013 GMC Terrain and Chevrolet Equinox SUVs "because warranty data showed a higher-than-expected failure rate," adding it has continued to monitor field data on other model years of those vehicles. GM noted that no crashes or injuries related to the issue have been reported. The Detroit-based automaker said the recalls were prompted after a GM Canada brand quality manager reported a potential safety issue relating to reports of windshield wiper failures in Canada through GM's "Speak Up For Safety," program in late 2015. The data showed significantly higher field incidents in parts of Canada, which prompted a June 2016 recall there. Over the next two months, a higher number of U.S. reports prompted a U.S. recall, the company added. In the 2016 recall, GM said the front-wiper module would be replaced with a module that has a water deflector and, if needed, dealers would fill the water management hole and drill a new small hole in a different location.(Reporting by David Shepardson, editing by G Crosse)Related Video: Government/Legal Recalls Chevrolet GM GMC SUV
Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee teases return with a Countach
Fri, May 29 2015Unless you have an intense aversion to Jerry Seinfeld, it's hard not to find something to like about his show Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. After all, the series combines funny people telling often hilarious stories while riding in ridiculously cool vehicles. The trailer for the sixth season is now online, and based on this tease, this definitely looks worth watching no matter what part of the videos interest you. Of course, it's the automotive portion that really grabs us, and Seinfeld has quite a fleet to showcase for season six. The trailer shows off a Lamborghini Countach, a '57 Chevrolet Bel Air convertible, a classic Volkswagen Beetle in the green and white German Polizei livery, a Morgan, an Aston Martin DB5, and a Ferrari 308. On the more humorous side of things, the guest list at least includes Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Jim Carrey, Steve Harvey, Stephen Colbert, Bill Maher and upcoming host of The Daily Show Trevor Noah. Season six of Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee premieres on Crackle on Wednesday, June 3, at 11:30 PM ET.
