this auction is for a 1950 chevy hot rod. this car has had several modifications including being widened, chopped, lengthened in the front clip and shortened in the rear of the body. this car is sitting on a 1988 camaro chassis and uses everything from the camaro for its drivetrain. motor, transmission, dash, floor, suspension everything. this is basically a 88 camaro that looks like a 50 chevy. the motor is a 350 chevy with an automatic transmission. the motor runs great and has a new battery, belts, and alternator. this badboy is a blast to drive, it was in the world of wheels show last weekend in Kansas City, and drew a huge crowd. It even won an award. i drove it down to the show and its about 70 miles each way from my shop and it drove like a dream, the heat and ac work great. it has new tires on the front and the backs are probably 60 percent, they were a lot newer a month ago but this car loves to do burnouts LOL. there is not door windows right now, but the mechanisms are still in the doors. the windshields and side windows are 1/4 inch bulletproof lexan. all the lights work, it has a cd player but i never hooked up any speakers. it has a faded paint job to look like its sat for 30 years. the bodywork is ok but no where near perfect i didnt want it to look that way. shipping is up to the buyer, im sure ive forgot lots of details so if you have any questions dont hesitate to shoot me an email..
also there are lots more pictures of this car, and pictures of the building process here....

Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica
Fri, 03 Aug 2012If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue
Wed, 14 Nov 2012General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic models due to a defect in the driver's airbag system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag has a shorting bar which may contact two internal terminals. If that happens during a crash, the supplemental restraint may not deploy, increasing the risk of driver injury. The recall includes a total of 2,949 units.
GM will contact owners and replace the steering wheel airbag coil at no cost. At this point, it's unclear when the recall will begin, though owners may contact the automaker at 1-800-521-7300 for more information. You may also take a closer look at the full NHTSA notice below.
GM sweetens military discount for Buick, Chevy and GMC
Sun, 06 Oct 2013American servicemen and women interested in a new vehicle from Chevrolet, Buick or GMC now have a bit more incentive to head down to their local dealer, as General Motors has announced plans to improve its military discount program.
The new GM Military Discount Program offers eligible consumers a new Chevy, Buick or GMC at invoice pricing, which in some cases can take very large chunks out of a car's retail price. When factored in with other incentives, most of which are available with the Military Discount, the bargains are thick on the ground for members of the US armed forces.
GM's Retail Sales and Marketing Support general manager, Chuck Thomson, said, "GM has long supported the military and military families, and we hope this simplified and enhanced discount will show our appreciation for their service and help make it easier for them to own one of our great new vehicles." The program is open to all active duty and reserve members in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, National Guard and Coast Guard, as well as veterans that have been out of the service for less than a year. Military retirees and their spouses are also eligible for the discount.
