1957 Chevy Project Car. This is a solid beast ready to be taken to the next level. It was fairly solid from the start. Has new floor pans, inner and outer rockers, and some new braces here and there. The floors are sprayed with truck bedliner on the top and bottom. Body was off the frame. New body mounts and bolts are installed. The frame was stripped down, cleaned and sprayed with chassis black. The rear springs were moved inward with a McGaughys weld in spring pocket kit. Included new spring bushings. Shock relocation bracket was also welded in while the body was off. New shocks. Front end needs rebuilt. No motor, no trans, no drive shaft. All of the body parts were very solid and have just some small patch panels welded in before paint. The body was down to bare metal and epoxy primed. The doors open and close nice. The hood has one weak hinge but shuts good. Trunk needs a new latch. The body work is decent and fairly strait. It looks good considering black is the most unforgiving color. The paint is Dupont Basecoat/clearcoat. It has some imperfections, most of which can be wetsanded and buffed out. I did a quick sand and buff after it was painted to knock down the orangepeal but I didn't go crazy. There is a ton of clear to work with. The stainless on the sides are in good shape. They can be polished better, but I don't have the patience. I have the right fender spear ordered and it is included with the car and will be installed by Thursday. New door, trunk, glovebox lock with keys. New door handles. New tail light lenses. All new stainless hardware. The bumpers and other trim that is painted was not good enough to keep chrome. They will be good cores if someone wanted to swap them. I didn't go too crazy painting them. The charcoal pieces still show imperfections up close. I have the stainless trim for the front and rear windshield, also included. Wheels are 20x10 in the rear and 20X9 in the front. Tires have about 50 miles on them. If you don't want the wheels, I will deduct $750 from the winning bid and put some rollers on it. I have some new odds and ends pieces to the car. Some gaskets and weatherstrip. No interior. Back glass is included. Any questions, give me a call at 570-299-1755. I have a clear FL title in my name to the car. This is a big boy toy, so check with your wife, your girlfriend, your mom, your dog, or whoever you need to before bidding. I have the reserve set for the lowest amount I will consider for this car. If the reserve isn't met, the car will not sell. I am in no rush to sell the car, but am a motivated seller. Most of my auctions don't run the full 7 days, so feel free to send your best offer. The car can sit here as long as you need if its paid in full and I can recommend some transporters if you need.
If you have less than 5 positive feedbacks or just signed up with ebay in the past few months, call before you bid or I will cancel your bid.
The only trade I will consider is an old chevy 2 door or pickup project car and a fist full of cash. No boats, motorcycles, tractors, airplanes!!!!!!!

Chevy rolls out Silverado HD High Country
Wed, 09 Apr 2014It's been a good week for heavy-duty truck buyers. First, Ram revealed the Black Package for its HD trucks, then it rolled out its new Power Wagon, and now Chevy's getting in on the action with its Silverado High Country HD. Okay, so it may not pack quite the attitude of Ram's latest 2500-series offerings, but the High Country HD will come as a welcome addition to the Chevy Trucks range to those looking to pull their horse, boat or other trailer without skimping on creature comforts.
Rolled out a little under a year ago, the High Country trim is Chevy's answer to the likes of the GMC Denali, Ford King Ranch and Ram Longhorn. It has until now only been offered on the light duty, 1500-series Silverado, but now extends to the 2500 and 3500-series HD models, as well.
So what sets a High Country pickup apart from lesser Chevy trucks? You'll be able to pick it out based on its chrome horizontal grille, body-color bumpers, 6-inch tubular side steps, 20-inch chrome wheels (18-inch on the 3500 and 17-inch on the dualie) and, of course, plenty of special badging. But it's inside where the High Country makes its mark, with a cabin decked out in saddle brown perforated leather, seats that are both heated and cooled, eight-inch touchscreen with full MyLink suite, Bose audio and park assist functions front and rear to keep those color-keyed bumpers looking fresh. (Though Chevy hasn't yet showed us the interior of the HD model, it'll presumably look mostly the same as the cab in the 1500 High Country in the gallery below.)
GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
Fewer than 1 in 3 Chevy dealers earn right to initially sell C7 Corvette
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Looking to make the launch of the 2014 Corvette Stingray as efficient as possible, Chevrolet will be limiting the numbers of its dealers that can sell the all-new coupe and convertible. According to Automotive News, sales of the C7 Corvette will initially be limited to less than a third of Chevy's total dealership network when the 'Vette goes on sale this summer.
Only 900 dealers out of more than 3,000 locations nationwide will be allowed to sell the new Corvette at first, and the reason for this is so that there are no shortages at dealers that can actually get the cars sold. The article says that the 900 dealerships chosen represented 80 percent of total Corvette sales in 2012.
Some of the requirements dealers had to make to get initial allocation of Stingray sales include having sold at least four Corvettes in 2012 and having a Corvette Stingray specialist who will be required to have gone through a training session costing more than $2,000 per attendee. Once demand for the 2014 Corvette Stingray begins to subside - approximately six to nine months after it goes on sale - then allocation could open up to more dealers, but the report indicates this could happen following the 2014 model year.
