1958 Biscayne 348 tri-power, 4 speed. This car runs, sounds, and drives excellent. It tracks straight, and stops nice. It has all the upgrades you would want in an old car. Power steering, power DISC brakes, and electric fan. The frame and floors are all SUPER solid. Frame is perfect. NO rust. The floors were replaced a few years back. It was done professionally, and correctly, including a rubberized undercoating. No cheap patch job. In fact, you'd have a hard time telling they were replaced. The body is good, but not great. Looks good at 10ft, but has it's share of flaws. It has an older paint job. Basically, it could use a nice paint job. It deserves it. Same for the chrome and trim. All there and good, but some of it would need replacing for show. Interior is excellent. Only flaw is a headliner seam split near the back. Carpet and door sill plates are brand new,and the seats and door panels are near perfect.Glass is all good. Just one small vent window is cracked. Windows go up and down nice, and everything works but the speedo and amp gauge. Motor runs VERY strong, and does NOT smoke. Starts right up, and runs very smooth. Originally a 6 cylinder. It's only running on the center carb right now, but will run on all three. The linkage does work, but isn't factory correct. The clutch is excellent, and the Saginaw 4-speed shifts through all the gears really nice and smooth. It's a pleasure to drive. Exhaust is near new without ANY leaks, and it also has a fresh tune-up. Points, plugs, wires, condensor, cap and rotor, and battery are all brand new. Car sounds awesome. The only thing it would need to be a daily driver is an emergency brake cable. Other than that, ready to be enjoyed without worries. It will leave the typical old car drip or two of oil. Original valve covers and radio included, Bottom line, this a fairly rare car, with the perfect motor-tranny combo. It's super solid, so a nice paint job would return you every penny invested. Only going up in value. Best of all, it's priced with a reasonable reserve. Any questions, feel free to ask. My name is Jim, and I can be reached at (585) 261-6547. You can email as well. Please ignore the negative feedback left recently. It was one idiot, who lost a challenge over a very minor issue. Ebay doesn't allow for removing the negative comment once it's left. No disappointments with this car. Also, I will assist with shipping any way I can.

Dodge vs. Chevy tug-of-war taken to the extreme
Mon, 17 Dec 2012They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.
GM recalling over 40,000 Chevy, Pontiac and Saturn models over fuel pump woes
Mon, 01 Oct 2012The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for a number of General Motors cars and crossovers bought or currently registered in the hot-climate states of Arkansas, Arizona, California, Nevada, Oklahoma and Texas. As many as 40,859 units consisting of the 2007 Chevrolet Equinox, Pontiac Torrent and Saturn Ion and the 2007-2009 Chevrolet Cobalt (shown) and its Pontiac G5 twin are being recalled for potential fuel leaks.
This recall is being issued due to potentially faulty fuel pump components that can crack and cause gasoline to leak from the return or supply ports and possibly cause a fire. NHTSA has not indicated how many fuel leaks or vehicle fires have been reported. As a fix, GM will replace the fuel pump modules on all affected vehicles free of charge. Since Pontiac and Saturn have been shuttered, owners will be able to go to another GM-brand dealership to have their vehicles repaired.
While the list of affected cars and crossovers varies by state and model year, if you own any of these models and live in Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada, Oklahoma or Texas, be sure to check the official notice below for more details.
Why the Corvette's Performance Data Recorder can be illegal in some states
Fri, 26 Sep 2014The Performance Data Recorder with Valet Mode available on the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray seems like a fantastic tool for many owners. Whether they are taking 720p video while lapping the track in their new 'Vette, or just want to protect their purchase from inconsiderate joyriders, the system offers a lot of functionality in one package. However, one of the PDR's features might get buyers in trouble with the law, and it has nothing to do with recording some illicit high-speed driving on a favorite back road. The problem hinges on the various state laws concerning a person's right to privacy.
According to a letter posted by Jalopnik, Chevy dealers are asking 2015 Corvette owners not to use the Valet Mode portion of the PDR because it records audio in the cabin, in addition to performance specs. That's a problem because privacy laws vary from state to state with some requiring just one side's consent to tape sound and others requiring all parties to agree. According Jalopnik, 15 states mandate everyone's permission beforehand, but it's not clear whether these numbers are up to date. (Actually, the report varies, saying 13 states in some places and 15 in a list.)
According to the letter, Chevy is already working on a software update for the near future to rectify the issue. It's possible that simply adding a warning to drivers and the ability to turn off the audio recording function in Valet Mode might solve the problem. Obviously, this doesn't preclude Corvette drivers from using the performance aspect of the PDR, and owners are free tape lap after lap at the track.
