55 Chevy Nomad Survivor (one Of The Best If Not The Best) on 2040-cars
Spokane, Washington, United States
|
One of the best if not the best (Survivor) available. Completely orginal. runs and drives great. Excelent interior. The Nomad moldings are some of the best with little or no pitting or cracks. One spot of rust in front of left rear wheel as in pic. Very minute surface rust in various places. A small crease in rear fender. This car was stored in norhtern Idaho for the last 30-40 yrs in a very controled area. I could go on and on about all the correct items on this car such as the door weatherstrip still sporting the correct canvas cover. The spiral shocks. the orginal fuel pump. the exhaust header pipe still having the shields on it. the tail gate fits excellent. The glass is all excellent. The headliner and all the linoleum is excelent. the chrome is all excellent. I drained the gas tank and used por 15 then rebuilt the original carb and fuel pump changed the oil and the car runs and sounds great. It does have the power steering option and that is it I have been a Nomad lover for several years and have owned my 56 since 1963 and when I found this car I could not pass it up. But am getting older and this car should go someone that likes orginality. Please feel free to call Doug 509-979-3344 for an honest description of the car and any thing to do with it. I have not done any unnecessary work on this car. Hoping to preserve the original pateena for the new owner and they can decide for themselves if they want to change or modify any parts of the car. Again a 55 Nomad to use as a Benchmark for restoration of the famous body style. Also the front seat must have had a crack or ? there has been a small white insert in the center. I realize that would have to be changed to be 100% correct. the waffle is correct but almost 60yrs old

The 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is for drivers who value performance above all else
Sat, 16 Feb 2013The car you see above is the 2014 Chevrolet SS, and it's important both because it is the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from Chevy in 17 years, and because it will be the nameplate the brand uses on NASCAR tracks all across the country starting this year.
Though it wears a name as American as baseball and apple pie, the machine was actually designed and built in Australia, sharing most of its parts with the brand-new VF-model Holden Commodore. That said, the basic chassis bits are shared with other Chevrolet models like the Camaro and Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle.
While Chevrolet is happy to sell a Malibu or Impala to anyone looking for a mainstream family sedan, but the SS is reserved for buyers interested first and foremost in performance. Most sedans sold these days are front-wheel drive, which is great for everyday driving and when the weather goes bad, but the SS is instead a rear-wheel-drive vehicle aimed at enthusiasts who love to drive and who prefer speed and performance above all else.
GM cutting production at two plants
Thu, Feb 26 2015General Motors is continuing to adjust to excess supply of some of its brands' models. To get production more in line with the vehicles' actual demand, the automotive giant is idling two of its factories in North America in the coming months. The Orion Assembly plant is going to be down from March 9-13, according to an anonymous plant worker and another insider speaking to Automotive News. The factory builds the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, but there are plenty of both models sitting on dealer lots, including 216 days worth of Sonics, according to AN. The factory already had two idle periods announced to reduce the excess. In addition, downtime is scheduled at GM's "Flex" line at the Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, plant from April 13-17. This affects supply of the Chevrolet Camaro, Impala, Buick Regal and Cadillac XTS. Among them, the automotive giant has the largest supply of Regals ready for dealers with 213 days worth of them, according to AN. The future for the whole Oshawa factory is cloudy in general, though. There are rumors that it could close entirely in the future because the Camaro is leaving and the Regal and XTS might not last much longer than 2017. The Canadian government and the labor union there intend to put up a fight, though.

Race Recap: 2013 Twelve Hours of Sebring, cakewalk up front, grindfest out back [w/spoilers]
Tue, 19 Mar 2013This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...
