I would like to start off by saying that I own a chassis and restoration shop in Ohio....you can see by my feedback that I am a real seller....although we did not build this car here I am going to try and describe it as detailed as I can to the potential buyer so that the car can be bought with a high level of confidence. The car is owned free and clear with an Ohio title that is in our name. If you are looking for a Beautiful 55 chevy from top to bottom than this is it. Full frame off restoration with only 273 miles since completion....all of the original sheetmetal is still in place aside from new front floor pans and long body brace ends....it was completely disassembled and the entire underbody was painted in the same black basecoat/clearcoat as the top....all new poly body mounts (pictured), rebuilt front end with new poly a-arm bushings and upper and lower ball joints, Danchuk crossmember w/ power rack and pinion steering kit, 4 wheel power disc brakes with cross drilled and slotted rotors, 2" drop spindles, 2" lowered in the rear to match......12 bolt rearend with 3.07 gear, multi leaf springs, traction bars, new fuel tank, in tank electric fuel pump, new brake and fuel lines, 17" ION wheels with Run Flat Bridgestone Turanza 225/45R17 tires......The engine is a nicely detailed 283 small block chevy with edelbrock aluminum intake and carb w/ electric choke, HEI ignition, aluminum serpentine drive system, billet air cleaner, aluminum radiator w/ electric fan, A/C compressor installed but an actual AC unit is not currently in place but can be easily added to complete the system, T56 6 speed manual overdrive transmission with Hurst Shifter and a McLeoud Street twin clutch with Billet Flywheel rated to 1000hp...full dual exhaust that exits under the rear bumper........GORGEOUS custom interior designed after the original, super comfortable, beautiful dash and headliner, inside has been completely sound deadened, Classic Instruments gauges that are all functional, billet gauge panel, turn signals, LED high beams, IDIDIT tilt steering column, billet steering wheel...all new window fur channels and weatherstripping, new front windshield (the rest of the glass appears to be original), new front and rear glass seals, new door seals, rebuilt vent windows, 100% all new wiring...all of the stainless was removed, cleaned and polished........chrome front and rear bumper.....the car is painted two tone House of Kolor black and galaxy grey metallic basecoat/clearcoat....as you can tell in the pics this is an absolutely gorgeous 55 chevy with a killer stance that is basically a brand new car.....now I am very picky about the quality level of vehicles and the only thing I will say is that although the paint looks beautiful...to me it is not what I would consider lazer straight down the sides...everything lines up nice and the doors open and close like new...but being black I can see some waves in the body..by the rear tail lights there is a small area that has been recleared in the grey...the paint is definitely above driver quality but it is not concourse level......BUT most people would probrably say that I am too picky........but I would rather be overly critical than the other way around. This vehicle would be fantastic for cruise nights or local car shows....something that you can jump in and cruise w/o much worry.......there has been A LOT of time and money invested in this car....it is complete, turnkey and ready to enjoy....Feel free to call me at

800k car names trademarked globally, suddenly alphanumerics seem reasonable
Tue, 01 Oct 2013What's in a name? This cliched phrase probably gets tossed out at every marketing meeting that happens when a new car gets its nomenclature. We know the answer, though: everything. The name of a car has all the potential to make or break it with fickle customers that are more conscious than ever about what their purchases say about them.
That's giving headaches to marketing folks across the automotive industry. "It's tough. In 1985 there were about 75,000 names trademarked in the automotive space. Today there are 800,000," Chevrolet's head of marketing, Russ Clark, told Automotive News. Infiniti's president, Johan de Nysschen, echoed Clark's sentiment, saying, "The truth of the matter is, across the world, there is hardly a name or a letter that hasn't already been claimed by one car manufacturer or another. You can go through the alphabet - A, B, C and so forth - and you will quickly see that almost all available letters are taken."
What has that left automakers to do? Get creative. In the case of Infiniti, it made the controversial move to bring all of its cars' names into a new scheme, classifying them as Q#0 for cars and QX#0 for SUVs and crossovers. So the Infiniti G, which was available as the G25 and G37, is now the Q50. The FX37 and FX50 are now the QX70.
2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut
Sat, 16 Feb 2013Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.
Supercharged 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 takes the C7 beyond the ZR1
Mon, 13 Jan 2014
The Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
After a bright-yellow false start, here is the real thing: the fourth-generation, 2015 Corvette Z06. If Chevrolet makes a ZR1 version of the C7 Corvette, it's going to be absolutely mega, because the Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
