1955 CHEVROLET 210 4 DOOR WITH A 265 V8 AND A 3 SPPED ON THE COLUMN MANUAL TRANSMISSION. THIS CAR IS AN ORIGINAL 2 OWNER CAR WHICH SPENT ALL ITS LIFE IN NEW MEXICO. FIRST OWNER DROVE IT 49820 MILES AND IN 2003 SOLD IT TO THE 2ND OWNER WHICH PUT 5291 MILES ON IT UP UNTIL 2005 WHEN HE PARKED IT IN THE GARAGE AND LEFT IT. THIS CAR WAS SITTING UNDER A COLLAPSED GARAGE AND BOUGHT BY ME FROM THE 2ND OWNER. HE SAID IT HAD NOT RUN SINCE 2005. I CHANGED THE PLUGS, WIRES, AND CLEANED THE CARB AND SHE STARTED RIGHT UP. OIL WAS STILL CLEAN AND THE ANTI FREEZE WAS NICE AND GREEN. IT HAS A HUGE HOLE IN THE EXHAUST BEFORE IT GETS TO THE MUFFLER SO IT IS KINDA LOAD BUT IDLES NICE. IT SHIFTS INTO GEAR AND GOES BUT IT HAS ZERO BRAKES. THE METAL LINES ALL APPEAR GOOD BUT WHEN I KEPT PUTTING IN BRAKE FLUID I NOTICED LEAKS IN BOTH THE FRONT HOSES TO THE DRUM BRAKES. I ORDERED A PAIR AND WILL INCLUDE THEM WITH THE SALE. EMERGENCY BRAKE WORKS AND THATS HOW I STOP IT FOR NOW. EXCELLENT OLD SCHOOL MOHAWK 70 SERIES TIRES UP FRONT AND 60 SERIES IN THE BACK. THEY ARE MOUNTED ON 14X7 OLD ALUMINUM SLOTS. IN THE TRUNK WERE WHAT I AM GUESSING AS THE ORIGINAL 4 STEEL WHEELS WITH CHEVY POVERTY CAPS. WHEELS ARE THE SAME COLOR AS THE CAR.
MISSING 1 TRIM REAR QTR SPEAR BUT THE OTHER ONE IS INCLUDED. GLASS IS ALL THERE EXCEPT THE PASSENGER FRONT DOOR BUT I WILL TRY AND LOCATE ONE AND IT WILL BE INCLUDED IF I FIND IT. ROOF IS CLEAN, FENDERS ARE CLEAN, DOORS ARE ALL CLEAN, QUARTERS ARE NICE BUT HAVE A SKIM OF MUD IN THEM FROM YEARS AGO. THEY HELD UP NICE. PAINT IS FADED AND PEELING IN A FEW PLACES BUT THERE IS CLEAN METAL THERE NOT HOLES. TRUNK IS CLEAN BUT THE 2ND OWNER FOR SOME REASON WELDED A PIECE OF METAL ACROSS THE SHOCK TOWERS. THE FLOORS NEED WORK. I AM NO WELDER BUT THESE 55-57'S LOOK LIKE THEY ARE PRETTY FLAT FLOORS SO SHOULD BE A SOMEWHAT EASY FIX. THE INSIDE SEATS DEFINATELY LOOK OLD AND NEED COVERS AND SOME PADDING. DOOR PANELS ARE ALL THERE BUT LOOK OLD AS WELL. DASH IS NICE AND CLEAN AND STEERING WHEEL IS MISSING THE HORN. FRONT WINDSHIELD HAS A COUPLE CRACKS BUT DOESNT LEAK. FRONT SHOCKS AND SPRINGS ARE GOOD. REAREND IS FINE WITH THE LEAF SPRINGS BUT 1 REAR SHOCK IS BROKEN FROM SITTING TOO LONG. FRONT GRILLE IS VERY NICE AND ALL THE CHROME INCLUDING THE HOOD ORNAMENT IS VERY VERY NICE. HEADLIGHTS AND FRONT TURN SIGNALS WORK AND HAVE NO CRACKS, CHIPS OR DAMAGE. REAR LIGHTS HAVE A FEW CRACKS BUT CHROME IS NICE. I DROPPED THE FUEL TANK AND EMPTIED THE STALE GAS AND IT LOOKS NEW SO IT MUST HAVE BEEN REPLACED AT ONE TIME. BUMPERS ARE THERE AND SHINE NICE BUT HAVE A FEW EXPECTED DINGS. HOOD, TRUNK AND DOORS ALL OPEN AND CLOSE NICE. THE TRUNK OF COURSE YOU HAVE TO OPEN WITH A SCREW DRIVER BECAUSE THE LOCK IS MISSING.
THIS IS A REALLY NICE FIND AND IF SOMEONE KNOWS ANYTHING ABOUT FLOORS....THIS IS AN EASY FIX.
I HAVE TOO MANY PROJECTS AHEAD OF THIS ONE AND I REALLY THOUGHT I WOULD BE ABLE TO GET THIS IN MY GARAGE AND START STRIPPING IT DOWN FOR RESTORATION BEFORE WINTER HITS BUT IT DOESNT LOOK LIKE IT. THOUGHT MAYBE SOMEONE WOULD HAVE AN EMPTY GARAGE AND IN NEED OF AN AWESOME 55 CHEVY RUNNING PROJECT.
I WOULD DEFINATELY NOT SUGGEST YOU DRIVE THIS HOME UNLESS YOU ARE MY NEIGHBOR. I CAN ASSIST WITH PICKUP AND HELP IN ANY WAY POSSIBLE. IT DOES NOT NEED TO BE PICKED UP IMMEDIATELY BUT I WOULD EXPECT TO GET FULL PAYMENT WITHIN 5-7 DAYS. I HAVE THE ROOM OUTSIDE AND I AM COMPLETELY FENCED IN FOR PRIVACY AND SECURITY.
PLEASE ASK ALL THE QUESTIONS YOU LIKE AND OFFERS ARE ALWAYS ENCOURAGED. I DO ANSWER ALL EMAILS.
THANKS FOR LOOKING AND I DEFINATELY APPRECIATE YOUR BIDS.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards
Tue, 27 Nov 2012Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR
Fri, 08 Feb 2013There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.
