1957 Chevrolet

Bel Air - 2 door hardtop

 

Frame off restored car that is super clean inside, out, and underneath.

Drivetrain and suspension-  350 c.i. V8 crate engine with 700R4 transmission, power steering, and power disc brakes.  It has a 10 bolt rear with aluminized dual exhaust (Flowmaster mufflers and ceramic coated headers).  The car is strong running and dependable enough to be your daily driver.  Sway bars front and rear have been added.  Under the hood everything is either painted to match the exterior or is chromed/polished aluminum.  All new brake lines, fuel lines, body bushings etc.  There has been a ton of money spent on this car and it shows everywhere you look.  Photos will tell all the details.  The car is as clean underneath as it is on the topside. 

Exterior- Beautiful super slick paint on an arrow straight rust free body.  Zero rust or bondo issues with this car.  Floors are painted to match the exterior and the frame is gloss black.  I have photos showing the car taken apart during the restoration.  All chrome and trim literally looks new.  New glass and new weather stripping through out.  Billet Specialties wheels with new tires.   

Interior- Interior is all stock aside from the much needed tilt column with smaller factory looking steering wheel. Everything works as it should and all wiring is new.

This is a turn-key, needs nothing car.  Clear Ky title with no liens or issues.  The car is being sold to downsize a collection so we are not looking for trades. 

Photos will tell more than I can type but questions and inspections are welcomed.  The car is much more impressive in person than in these photos.  Feel free to email, call, or text Tim  270-799-8388.

Over 110 high resolution photos-

GM takes heat for aborted Silverado riff on 'Boston Strong' at World Series

Thu, 31 Oct 2013

During game five of the World Series, Chevrolet was set to do a spot of marketing for the 2014 Silverado - fans at Busch Stadium in St. Louis would hold up placards that spelled out the words "Silverado Strong," a theme that Chevy has been promoting since the Silverado's launch with the song "Strong," by Will Hoge. The St. Louis promo was ultimately called off, though, over concerns that it'd be insensitive to the visiting Boston Red Sox. (You can see the image of what the stunt would have looked like above, courtesy of one timely Reddit user.)
Now, the Busch Stadium stunt might not have been a big deal, had the St. Louis Cardinals not been playing the Boston Red Sox. Following the tragic events in Boston during the marathon back in April, the phrase "Boston Strong" gained traction among the city's citizens, especially at sporting events. So, you can imagine that Chevy's appropriation of the phrase might not sit well with some fans.
The stunt was ultimately shelved after images of the signs went viral before the game, leading to a bit of a public backlash. Chevy spokesperson Michael Albano said of the promo that it was meant to show the brand's "commitment to baseball and its fans." But after the images went viral, the company "realized there was the possibility that we may offend some of the very fans we were trying to honor," Albano told Automotive News via email.

Camaro spy shots show subtly different grille, front fascia

Sun, 03 Feb 2013

It looks like there some changes in store for the Chevrolet Camaro - the only thing is that we just don't know what Chevy has up its sleeve. Looking at these spy shots, we'd initially be inclined to think that there is just a minor facelift or a new special edition, but upon closer inspection, there are a few oddities about this car that definitely have us intrigued.
The most obvious difference on this prototype is the slightly restyled front fascia with a smaller lower air inlet and the two-bar grille. Then we get to some of the car's mysterious details. For starters, this fascia has the SS vent above the grille, but it looks to be blocked off. Granted this could just be a one-off piece used for testing. What really piqued our interest was at the rear of the car where it has quad exhaust outlets that are used on the ZL1. Could this be the LS7-powered Camaro that we reported on back in December?
At this point, your guess is as good as ours as to what we're looking at here, so let us know in the comments what you think this could be.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Mon, 20 Jun 2011

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
