Up for auction is my 1955 Chevy Bel-Air 4dr sedan project car. This is a real bel-air, not a 210 or 150.  The car was taken to the next level by me, it's now time to take a major loss and pass it on for somebody else to take off where I left off as I don't have the time to put into it.

  Here are the facts.... 1968 chevy 307 V8 cleaned up and installed. It was from an old man Impala with bout 80k on it.  I also replaced the heads with 64-66 Chevy 283/327 heads.  It needs another day or so to be made to run.  New starter as well. Fuel line has to be ran . (I have a new fuel tank not installed). Obvious adjustments of carb and timing.

  Transmission is a mid 70's known good TH350 shorttail.  It's installed using a modern SPEEDWAY cross member.  I also have purchased the shifter rod to make it work with original column (not connected)

 This car is a rare 1955 POWER STEERING CAR.  Everything is intact! Hooked up to original generator unit that is worth $400 alone.

  Clearly seen this car IS NOT for somebody who cannot do their own welding and body work unless you have cash to pay somebody to do it.  3 of the 4 doors already are just about finshed. The forth one was started and not finished. The hood is sandblasted and is alone with $500 if not more, it's just about MINT, perfect corners and NOT ROTTED. The trunk lid also is sandblasted and needs minor work.  Floor work was done already, needs a little more here and there (nothing major).  I installed correct driverside floor pan and brace under it as well as two outer rocker panels.

    The rear as clearly seen has already been cut out to be replaced.  I have $400 of new sheet metal that needs to be welded for the back, including last 8 inches of inside of trunk and the actual outer panel.

  I have a one piece original rear bumper that is powercoated silver, I have an original front bumper that needs to be painted or tossed in favor of something else.

  The original wiring is in the dash and excellent.  I also put new wiring under the hood. Did you notice the headliner??? That 's all brand new with windlace costing me $700 to do so....

  As far as seats I have an original seat that is complete and needs to be redone as well as a mint set of 2003 Monte Carlo bucket seats.  You are getting BOTH!  I have the original top half of rear seat but not the bottom .  The seat I purchased was for a 2 door (the bottom section is slighly different)  Sold that and found that lower halves for 4 doors are out there and rather reasonable.

    Again, my loss your gain.  I will never get out of this what I've already put in.  IT is now 2013, 2 and 4 doors are very close in value. A correct finished 55 Bel-Air 4dr is in the 26,500k spot according to the latest KRAUSE price guide as a 2dr sedan is at 32,000..... Eyes closed any really decent 4dr goes for $12-18k.

    This is the ultimate car for somebody who is handy and can take it to the next level.  It's an easy money maker if you are a car flipper.  I think this actually should be of interest to the SWEEDS.

     I am going to be loading this car chock full of parts, parts and more parts.  You are getting more than your moneys worth and beyond here!!!! I have some doubles of items , all is going!!!! I am also going to be bolting the hood, doors, and trunk on for transport purpose.

CAR also sports original NOTCH wheels that are worth about $300-400.  Excellent bias ply tires of the day

 

  DON'T THINK BOUT bidding on this car, just bid on it and have the funds ready to go.  I am in NY 10920.  I DO NOT HAVE time to waste with dreamers.  I am taking a loss and will consider a "BUY IT NOW" as long as your funds are where your offer is.

     CLEARLY STATED, this VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE PAPERWORK.  I will write out a written bill of sale.  I can aquire paperwork @600, e-mail me if you wish to have me handle it, or handle it on your own. THE VIN TAG is present and can be read.

   Catch me while I am hot to lose this. IF I put one month into to and little cash it will run and drive being worth $6000 unfinished easy.  My reserve is a joke and I hope it goes up above and beyond it.  If not....well it's going anyway.  CAR LISTED TO SELL IT, not to waste time.

 

  TERMS OF SALE.... AS IS/WHERE IS IN NY 10920.  Funds in cash if local or, direct deposit, or last option bank check.  NO PAY PAL, no personal checks. NO TRADES. Must be paid in 7 days of auctions end.  All ZERO bidders are going to be deleted if they  NOT contact me to verify bids.  Anybody shady is also going to be deleted. I have a local man who can haul within 400 miles.  If you are beyond that then find a transporter.  Going easy you are spending $1000 if not more coast to coast , so again don't waste my time if you don't have the funds to make the deal.

 

Thanks and best of luck.

GM recalls Chevy Express, GMC Savana over rollaway concern

Mon, 21 Jan 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall notice for a small number of General Motors fullsize vans due to possible rollaway concerns. On certain 2013 Chevrolet Express and 2013 GMC Savana models, it is possible to remove the key from the ignition without the shifter being in park.
Only 980 total units are being affected by this recall, and GM is fixing the issue by replacing the ignition cylinder and associated keys. Affected Chevy vans were built during most of November and December while its GMC counterpart was only built for a week in November. The recall goes into effect on January 23, and to find out if your vehicle applies to the recall, the GM and NHTSA contact numbers can be found on the official recall notice, which is posted below.

Chevy confirms Corvette Stingray Convertible for Geneva

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Want proof that General Motors has increased global ambitions for its 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray? It's staging the world premiere of the model's convertible variant at the Geneva Motor Show early next month.
As previously rumored, the droptop rendered above will debut at the Swiss show, making its first appearance anywhere on March 5. According to Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet, the location makes sense because Corvette "...is an icon that has long been recognized and admired even in countries where it's never officially been offered."
While neither Chevrolet nor the Corvette has a major sales presence in Switzerland, the Bowtie's European headquarters is located in Zurich (about three hours to the northeast of Geneva) and GM has made it clear that it wants to build the Chevrolet brand up across Europe.

Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes

Wed, 31 Oct 2012

It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
