1955 Chevrolet Convertible Project. W/title on 2040-cars
Chassell, Michigan, United States
|
This 1955 Chevy convertible was wrecked, stripped, and left outside for decades. No driveline and front end was stripped down to the spindles. No seats. The rest of the interior is shot. Dash was cut at the windshield line and stripped. Car hit a tree or pole on its right side at the back of the door; wrecked door and smashed the rear quarter back. No hood. Driver door is salvageable, was cut off thru hinges w/torch and is held in place with a ratchet strap for photo and transport. Rear quarters are rather smashed up-you'll likely want a donor car. The good: A rare find for a project and everything is fixable. A real convertible, has vin tag and original cowl tag and a fresh, clean MI title. Has a good x-member frame under it. Has most convertible specific trim; is missing a piece on right side of the windshield frame. Has its convertible top frame -it will need some repair from collision damage but it looks to be all there. It's rough as photos show but has the important parts for a convertible restoration or, if nothing else, has a cowl and tags to use for a new replacement body. I will take more pics if desired, just let me know what you want. Car is currently on a trailer and takes some work to move without wheels but that's nothing a power winch can't handle. Delivery is possible, at your expense. Car is for sale locally as well so bid early to keep it here instead of an early closing.

GM takes heat for aborted Silverado riff on 'Boston Strong' at World Series
Thu, 31 Oct 2013During game five of the World Series, Chevrolet was set to do a spot of marketing for the 2014 Silverado - fans at Busch Stadium in St. Louis would hold up placards that spelled out the words "Silverado Strong," a theme that Chevy has been promoting since the Silverado's launch with the song "Strong," by Will Hoge. The St. Louis promo was ultimately called off, though, over concerns that it'd be insensitive to the visiting Boston Red Sox. (You can see the image of what the stunt would have looked like above, courtesy of one timely Reddit user.)
Now, the Busch Stadium stunt might not have been a big deal, had the St. Louis Cardinals not been playing the Boston Red Sox. Following the tragic events in Boston during the marathon back in April, the phrase "Boston Strong" gained traction among the city's citizens, especially at sporting events. So, you can imagine that Chevy's appropriation of the phrase might not sit well with some fans.
The stunt was ultimately shelved after images of the signs went viral before the game, leading to a bit of a public backlash. Chevy spokesperson Michael Albano said of the promo that it was meant to show the brand's "commitment to baseball and its fans." But after the images went viral, the company "realized there was the possibility that we may offend some of the very fans we were trying to honor," Albano told Automotive News via email.
Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506
Thu, 02 May 2013With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.
2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit
Tue, 15 Jan 2013There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.
