1957 Chevy Belair Wagon

Heres a chance to buy a nice original Tri 5 Wagon thats been off the road
here in AZ for many many years, just aching to be someones next project !
Sure its not a Nomad, but thats great because its more affordable AND
easier to get the family In and Out of the car on cruze nights with 2 extra doors !
1957 is still the best looking yr wagon GM built , until 59 :)
THIS ONE  with NO RESERVE 

OBVIOUSLY THIS CAR NEEDS A FULL RESTORATION FRONT TO REAR
BUT I WILL TRY TO DETAIL OUT SOME INFO THAT CANT BE SEEN IN 
THE PICS BELOW.

This car was owned by Copper Electric out of Bisbee AZ for as long as we
can track it prior to us acquiring it a few weeks ago. Seeing the cars past
has been in AZ probably its whole life, it is a low rust vehicle compared to
most its age, but no one ever removed the plastic floormats over the yrs
so the lower parts of the floorboards did get rust from the inside out mostly.
It has some rust in a few other areas, but its still far much cleaner then most
out there. The OTHER thing is the car appears to still be wearing whats left
of its original paint on all the original sheetmetal. Looking all over the car I
didnt see any signs of previous repairs or overspray or repaint.
For alot of restorers and builders who know what they want, thats a big 
thing for them.
LUCKILY Im pretty sure just about every part needed for this car is now available
making restoration easier by just having to pick up the phone and order what
you need.
IF you look closely though, you will see there are alot of loose parts that are
not shown ON the car but look to be INSIDE in various areas.
SORRY for not prepping this car and at least trying to clean it out as much as
possible prior to listing it, but under the circumstances this week I didnt have
the time or facility to do so this week. Im going to try to clean it out by the
weekend and itemize whats there and toss all the trash out if I can and update
the pics by Monday nite. (so keep checking back for updates..)
As for glass on this car, I think the only 2 PIECES NOT broke are 1 of the vent wing
windows and the very back. Side Doors all open and close fine and dash looks
to be uncut around the radio.


OUR 100% feedback speaks for itself 
and many of our feedback are from about 15 cars we sold just this past
year here on EBay. We put more time and effort into our ads making it much
easier for the potential buyers to bid with confidence.
NOT MANY OF THESE CARS WHERE MADE BACK IN THE DAY and we all know
NOT MANY ARE EVEN LEFT ON THE ROAD ANYMORE.


DRIVETRAIN: no motor or trans BUT at least this car was originally
A V8 car with what I think may of been a 3 on the Tree. Build it 
anyway you want, and if you do it right youll never lose a dime on 
it when it comes to reselling it.  REAREND looks to be original.
Car rolls and steers making shipping a little easier. 3 tires hold air
for a bit, 1 tire is beat. I can try to get it so all 4 tires hold air
long enough for shipping still on the stock rims.


INTERIOR: obviously needs a total restoration, but looks complete
and all the main stuff there. Seats, dash, glove box etc.
Some misc small stuff like handles are missing. Spare tire well
is very dry and rust free too.

EXTERIOR: body for the most part, really straight, but there
is a dent by the LR 1/4, mild rust on the rockers. Hood is not
currently bolted down. Some side trim is missing, but there 
are some loose pieces in the car. Front bumper and grill are
missing.

SUSPENSION: basically all stock and original and probably
very worn out and ready for a nice Resto Mod restoration.
Rear shocks almost look to be original haha.

This car is not your typical 90% rust free Arizona car but it is
a car that needs some rust repair and still better then one sitting
near the coast or in the rust belt.

These cars rarely even come up for sale in this condition, which is
affordable to almost anyone wanting a project wagon.
Check out ALL the pics below ----->

it may take a full minute for them all to load if you have a
slow connection, so be patient AND looks for the extra scroll
bar on the right side.
Az gets maybe 12" a yr of rain and Az very dry climate.
more info AFTER the pics etc. There are 100 large pics.

2016 Technology of the Year Finalist: 2016 Chevy Volt

Tue, Jan 5 2016

The 2016 Chevy Volt is in all ways an improvement over the Volts that came before. It's got a new powertrain, a new look, and new (and better) fuel economy figures. What's not to like? For the second generation, GM used the last few years of automotive battery improvements and customer data to deliver a car that took what people liked about the first Volt and offered up more of that. This means a longer all-electric range (from 38 miles to 53) and better gas-burning fuel economy (37 miles per gallon up to 42 mpg – oh, and you're not required to use premium any more, either). All of this for less money than the outgoing 2015 Volts. Chevy's new plug-in hybrid will start at $33,995, which is not only lower than the 2015's MSRP of $34,170 but it's also just a few hundred dollars higher than the average new car price in the US. In other words, the new Volt (and many other plug-in vehicles) is not out of the price range for most car shoppers. The interior has been updated as well, losing some of the oh-so-futuristic touch-sensitive center stack in favor of more realistic tactile buttons. This along makes the new Volt better than the first generation, but when it's wrapped up in the new exterior design, it just feels more appropriate for a car that's not trying to be from the future. Instead, the new 2016 Chevy Volt wants to be the best plug-in car for right now.

UAW rejects GM contract proposal but makes a counter offer

Tue, Oct 1 2019

The United Auto Workers union said a new comprehensive offer made by General Motors Co late Monday to end a two-week-old strike was not acceptable and said it had made a new counterproposal. UAW vice president Terry Dittes said in a letter to members "there are many important issues that remain unresolved." The union is awaiting GM's next proposal. He said GM's offer came up short on many issues.  Dittes said GM made a "comprehensive proposal" at 9:40 p.m. Monday. "This proposal that the company provided to us on day 15 of the strike did not satisfy your contract demands or needs. There were many areas that came up short like health care, wages, temporary employees, skilled trades and job security to name a few." Dittes is the union's vice president for GM relations and the UAW's lead negotiator in these contract talks. "We have responded today with a counterproposal and are awaiting GM's next proposal to the union," he wrote. "Regardless of what is publicized in print or social media, etc., there are still many important issues that remain unresolved." The strike, in its third week, has cost GM more than $1 billion, according to J.P. Morgan analyst Ryan Brickman. He said the cost per day in potential profit is $82 million. However, another analysis, by East Lansing-based consultant Anderson Economic Group, put the losses at $25 million a day. And the effects of the strike are expanding. GM said Tuesday the strike has created a parts shortage that forced the automaker to halt production at its pickup and transmission plants in Silao, Mexico, temporarily laying off 6,000 workers. Silao is where GM builds its highly profitable four-door crew cab Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups. The strike has also forced GM to idle some Canadian workers, and many suppliers have been forced to halt operations. About 48,000 UAW members went on strike on Sept. 16 seeking higher pay, greater job security, a bigger share of the leading U.S. automaker’s profit and protection of their healthcare. 

Reuss says GM diesel plans are still on pace

Fri, Oct 16 2015

General Motors is not going to let Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal ruin its plans for a new line of efficient, torquey oil-burners, the company's Executive Vice President Mark Reuss said at a recent press event. "No way," Reuss responded when asked about cancelling the upcoming diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze and other vehicles. "The Cruze Diesel is too good not to do it." Slated for 2017, the compact is just the latest member of a diesel offensive that initially kicked off with the first Cruze Diesel and most recently saw the introduction of the oil-burning Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon. Reuss also reassured those in attendance that there was "no delay" in development of Cadillac's diesel lineup. Cadillac is working on a line of four- and six-cylinder turbodiesels for Europe. They'd make their way into the US market, too, eventually. "It's a question of timing," Reuss said, according to Car and Driver. Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal has caused automakers across the globe to at least reanalyze their diesel strategy. Jaguar Land Rover, which is preparing several diesel-powered models for the US market, went on record late last month to reaffirm its commitment to diesel.
