This Bel Air is a time capsule.  Everything in the car works and it's the kind of car that spent it's life being loved.  There is no rust, everything has been perfectly maintained over the years and the car was always parked in a garage.  The paint is the only weak point, it's older but still shines nicely.  The interior is excellent, the radio works and the clock works, and the wipers work... well they are vacuum and they work best when your foot is off the gas.  Original is what this car is about.  If your interested in something that really shows what American cars were made of this is the car for you.

I purchased the car in Hershey, PA about 8 years ago and drove it to CA.  When you are contemplating doing a cross country drive in a car you just bought you prepare for it by buying as many parts as you can that might go out.  Being that we were in Hershey for the huge swap meet that was really easy.  I purchased all sorts of spare parts and they come with the car... but they were never needed for the 3000 mile drive.  The car runs like a top and made it all the way home without a problem.

Of course getting a 6 cylinder Chevy fixed anywhere in America is a pretty simple thing to do.  This car brings back memories of growing up.  The rear seat has enough leg room for the tallest person you could find.  Back in the day we didn't have seat belts and our cars would be filled with kids, jumping and laughing and just having fun.  This car brings back those memories for anyone who grew up as I did.

If you looking for an honest great American car... this is it.

Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.

GM throttles back Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse production over swollen inventories

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

As inventory of the Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse continues to pile up, General Motors will be idling its Fairfax Assembly Plant for two weeks, according to Automotive News. This move comes about a month after the plant was shut down for three weeks in late December and early January for the same reason. As of January 31, the GM had a 94-day supply of Malibu stock while the LaCrosse was a little worse with a 117-day supply.
Just last week, GM announced that it would be investing $600 million in upgrading this plant, but it's unclear what future plans the company has in store for Fairfax considering slow sales of both the plant's models. We do expect a refreshed and more luxurious LaCrosse shortly and an early design update for the Malibu to be announced at some point this year, although we have had no official word as to when either will happen.

Final C6 Corvette built in Bowling Green

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

With all of the attention given to the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray lately, you could be forgiven for thinking that it's already well along in production, yet tooling up for the new C7 has only just begun. In fact, production of the outgoing C6 generation in Bowling Green, Kentucky just halted on Thursday.
As the C6 has aged, production numbers have predictably ebbed along with demand, but this year, the addition of the 427 and 60th anniversary models resulted in an uptick in vehicles built - this, despite a model year shortened by around 25 percent to accomodate the new model changeover. The final C6 Corvette ever, No. 13,466 built this year, was a white 427 Convertible destined for the General Motors Heritage Center museum. The car's 7.0-liter V8 heart was assembled by Corvette chief engineer Tadge Juechter himself.
In total, Bowling Green pushed out 215,100 C6 Corvettes over nine years. If you're still a C6 fan at heart and are hoping to get a good deal on a phase-out model, step lively - Chevrolet reportedly had about 6,100 unsold units, which Autoweek suggests is good for around five and a half months of supply at the model's current sales rates. Given that demand will likely slacken even further as the C7 draws closer, that should be a big enough stockpile to keep dealers satisfied until 2014 Stingrays begin showing up on their forecourts in December.
