I'm selling my 1957 Chevy 210 2 door wagon. Its a beautiful deep deep red paint with red and black interior.  It is an original 283 car, but it is not the original motor in it. The 283 in it is out of a Chevelle. I converted it to a 4 barrel with a holley 600 carb. The transmission was originally a 3 on the tree, but is now a turbo 350 automatic (with transmission cooler located in front of the radiator) with a Lokar shifter on the floor.  I have a small block 400 with a mild cam and a 700r4 with a shift kit I was going to put in the car, but never got around to it.  Both 400 and 700r4 will go with the car if the buyer wants them.  The car is wearing the Nomad trim as just a dress up.  The chrome all the way around the car is gorgeous!  It is in really excellent shape.  There is no rust in the car.  It has been babied the whole time its been with me.  I have added a lot to this car to keep it updated while maintaining its classic look.  Some of the items I have purchased for the car have not been installed yet, but will go with the car.  I have added 5 seat belts in the car to make is safer to ride in for my kids.  Ok, now on to the list of goodies.  I have installed 4 KYB gas adjust shocks all the way around the car.  I installed both front AND rear heavy duty sway bars to help in handle, which it has.  I have a brand new complete front end rebuild kit to include, tie rods, ball joints, poly-bushings etc. I have brand new heavy duty front shocks. The brakes are power disk brakes. The rotors are slotted and cross drilled. It stops on a dime, but I have gone ahead and bought I new dual diaphragm brake booster with proportioning valve and lines.  I have changed all the door locks out for a ONE KEY lock. Meaning all the doors, glove box, tail gate and ignition all work by the same key, and I have two keys.  I have installed a brand new Spectra gas tank, gas lines, and mechanical fuel pump. The car has a brand new Be Cool 2 row aluminum radiator and the car runs really cool. On average around town, it hangs around 175 to 185 degrees.  The car has been completely re-wired with an American Autowire kit. I have purchased a new Rain Gear wiper system, but just have not installed it.  It is the two speed system with a delay.  This car was one that was ordered with a padded dash.  I have a NOS black padded dash that goes with the car. I also have a new 15" factory style steering wheel.  It looks exactly like the factory 18" wheel.  I have 5 brand new Autometer Phantom gauges with the adapter.  The gauges are a 5" meachanical speedometer, gas gauge, water temp, oil pressure, and volt meter.  The car already has a white face tach I installed on the steering column.  The car's heater core is no good, so I bought a brand new aluminum heater core with copper valve and new GM stamped hoses and clamps.  The car is rolling on Foose wheels.  The wheel sizes are 17x7 in the front and 17x8 in the rear.  The tires only have about 2,000 miles on them. Their sizes are 225/50/17 front and 255/45/17 rear. They fit real nice and don't rub at all.  I do have a set of 15x7 ralley wheels with the trim rings I will be sending with the car as an extra set of wheels and tires.  The windows have been tinted only 20%. They are not that dark but it does help with keeping it cool in the summer.  If you have anything you want to ask about the car, feel free to message me.  I am open to offers, but NO TRADES!!!

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.

GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles

Fri, 04 Jan 2013

As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
Scroll down for the full list of GM's million 30+ mpg cars as well as an informative press release.

Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction

Sun, 17 Feb 2013

It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
