1956 Chevrolet Bel Air 4 Door Sedan
235 CI Straight Six Powerglide Automatic Transmission This car is in great running and driving condition. It is a pleasure to drive and just wants to cruise. It is not super fast or loud. It has plenty of power to keep up with traffic. It stops well with the drum brakes. Everything works on this car with the exception of the shift indicator in the dash, windshield washer and clock. This car is fully documented California car with some good options. I have book with many 50's, 60's, 70's and current receipts. The original manual and accessories is in this book. There is also the letter to the owner for buying the car. The paperwork in this car is unexpected and very nice to have. You can see where the new owner made notes about maintenance on the car. Pretty cool. Engine and drive train I believe the engine is low miles 105,000 original, Very clean and strong. I upgrade the ignition to HEI and put a new carb on it. New wire, plugs, oil change, and all the fluids. It starts, idles and runs like new. The transmission shifts great and very smooth. OEM Starter and Generator. New battery cables and much more. Stock radiator with no leaks. Full coolant flush. All fluids changed front to back. Suspension and Steering It needed all the rubber replaced, idler arm, all the bushings, shocks. All this made it drive like is should. It's the little things no one wants to change that make it drive right. Receipts included. Tires New Diamond Back Extra Wide Radials. Super nice tires from Toyo. Wheels OEM - Notice the original spare with Jack and instructions in the trunk. It even has the sticker on the tire. Very nice. Interior One small tear when you get in. Otherwise I think this is the original seat covers. The carpet may have been replaced but is in good condition. Headliner is good. All the gauges work with the exception of the clock. The shift indicator needs the cable reconnected. The wiper are electric and work well. New wiper blades. The washer needs repaired. The dash and everything else is awesome. Horn works. Someone put a retro radio in and some kick panel speakers. This was a radio delete car and the delete plate is in the glove box. The floor mats are new and matching color. Seat belts have been added for safety. Exterior It looks to have one re-spray and is in fairly good shape. It still shines but has some nicks and scratches. There is some areas on the passenger side down low where the paint is beginning to bubble. See photo. The only rust I can find on this car is where the paint is bubbling. There is also some surface rust under the OEM mat in the trunk. See photo. This cars seems to have all its original sheet metal. To make this show quality, you would need to fix the few small rust spots and put a show quality matched paint. I would just drive it as is. The chrome bumpers are in great shape, but the hood ornament and a few pieces are beginning to pit. The pieces that were cast and not steel. The stainless is complete and looks great. Exhaust Good condition front to back. OEM rear tail cover. Glass and Doors The vent windows and the rear glass are original EZ View. The side and front glass are Shat R Proof. It is all in good condition and all the window works well. The doors shut like a safe. Included are the documents and receipts, OEM Carb, OEM Distributor I took out.

GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices
Mon, 21 Oct 2013The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.
General Motors shaking up its marketing... again
Wed, 13 Mar 2013One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")
2014 Chevy Silverado priced from *$24,585, V8 gets better economy than Ford EcoBoost V6
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Chevrolet has thrown down the next hand in the pickup truck poker wars and revealed at least a couple of potential aces - depending on which numbers matter most to you. The 2014 2014 Silverado 1500 with its 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 gets 335 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, is mated to a six-speed automatic, can tow 11,500 pounds with the optional Max Trailer Package and costs the same as the outgoing Silverado, $24,585 (*including $995 destination fee). Chevy says the Silverado also stands atop the fuel economy charts when comparing any competitor with a V8 engine - and some competitors with V6 engines. The two-wheel drive model returns 16 miles per gallon city, 23 mpg highway, 19 mpg combined in two-wheel drive guise and 16 mpg city, 22 mpg highway and 18 mpg combined as a four-wheel drive.
For context around those numbers, the most fuel efficient V8-powered 2013 Ford F-150 pickups lose about two mpg in every metric compared to the Silverado, the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost returning 16 city, 18 highway and 22 combined in two-wheel drive. However, that EcoBoost does have 365 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque. You can get a Ram 1500 with a 3.6-liter V6 that gets 25 mpg highway, but it has 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque. The 2013 Ram with the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and its 395 hp and 407 lb-ft drops one mpg in every category to the Silverado. Its tow rating is 200 pounds beyond its nearest competitor, the F-150 with the Max Trailer Tow Package.
Elsewhere, the new Silverado gets a quieter cab with a redesigned interior, a new bed with improved load-management possibilities, disc brakes all around, tweaked steering and suspension, along with free standard scheduled maintenance for two years or 24,000 miles.
