1956 Chevrolet Nomad on 2040-cars
Salem, Oregon, United States
Feel free to email: ardath.dorff@clovermail.net .
1956 Chevy Nomad in very good condition. This is a beautiful driver with a stock 350 four bolt main block, big
heads, w/nice cam, Edelbrock carb and intake w/headers (installed at 98,000 miles, so no more than 3,220 miles on
rebuilt engine, Tuned by Bob and Nick Jennings in So.Cal), backed by a 700r overdrive transmission (rebuilt and
installed with less than 1,000 miles), with glass-packs out the sides. The stunning matador red/(orange) paint is
around 15 years new and always garaged. It does have a couple small spots blistering in the front lower fenders,
the rear tailgate and lift gate area have not been restore completely. The interior was restored to 100% stock
condition two years ago from the metal up, with zero rust on the inside metal (except for the wheel well, which was
repaired when the body was painted), everything was sealed with POR 15, new head liner, new seats with new seat
belts where installed, new door panels, new window regulators, new door locks, all the interior chrome was
re-plated, new carpet with insulation, and a new electrical harness under the dash. The only thing not stock is the
stereo with speakers in the kick panels. Michelin tires have lots of tread (215/75/15) with Rally Rims all the way
around . Most of the outside chrome was re-plated, but some exterior pieces have light pitting as seen in the
photos. Windshield is crazing a little on the lower left driver side (see photo). This car starts fast with the
electric fuel pump, runs, drives, stops, and is a "quick" fun cruiser. This was my grandfathers car, and he
purchased it in 1957 from the first owner. Clear title with zero accidents.

GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say
Fri, 05 Apr 2013The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.
NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
