       I am offering my 1957 Chevy 210 2dr sedan project car for sale.  This is a restoration that I started and also collected a good amount of new parts for.  The car has a clean transferable NEW YORK registration in my name. (There are NO TITLES on NEW YORK CARS IN 1957, the regi is the LEGIT ownership. PAPERWORK CLEAR).

     This is what has been done.  The body was media blasted to the bare metal and put into epoxy prime.  What you see is what it is.  The passenger side has new sections welded into place as well the inner/outer rocker panel.  The car is still going to need metal work.  I have brand new front floor pans, brand new center hump for transmission as well as inner/outer rocker for driverside. The floor braces will need some attention.  The car DOES have the original floor in it for the most part but just like any typical 5-6-7 they have problem areas that need attention! Parts are very reasonable for these and this car is an easy fix, not a basket case. Chassis is great front to back.  Has original 3.56 ratio open rear (car was manual 3 speed 6 cylinder when new).

     I have purchased automatic brake pedal as well as brand new front tinted windshield, new sheet metal (as mentioned), front coil springs, 4 tubualr complete control arms (loaded), brand new green tint 6 piece side glass kit, se dan glass felt kit, brand new disc brake conversion kit, and new front splash pan.

      This translate to THOUSANDS in new parts.  My goal here was to go all modern RESTO MOD. The "BUY IT NOW" price includes the gold I purchased for it.  I have a 2007 Chevy SILVERADO 4.8l LS series V8 with matching 460LE automatic 4 speed transmission . COMPLETE with ALL and I do mean ALL accessories, wiring harness and computer.  This set up is worth $4000 plus on it's lonesome.  I have odometer statement from LATE MODEL Southern salvage yard that states it's original mileage at 73,xxx.  Engine/Trans looks as if it's day one from GM. THIS ONLY GOES WITH CAR FOR BUY IT NOW PRICE. DOES NOT GO WITH CAR JUST HITTING RESERVE.

        I have the original rear seat redone in black vinyl.  I also have an OLDS Cutlass interior in the car for the meantime . I was planning to use the more modern 60/40 G body seats and have made to match the rear. 

       There was going to be no expense spared the way I was going.  There ARE NO front fenders with this deal.  They were cut up for a flip nose and were tossed. There are no bumpers, the rear was missing the front was junk.  Each and every part is made new for these cars! IF you don't have the wallet for new there is plenty of good useable items that can be found on E Bay to make this complete.

       The steering column and box were tossed with the intention of rack and pinion steering.  I do have an 80's tilt GM column that goes and can retrofit. 90% of the side stainless I do have.  Missing a few pieces, again no big deal it's all made new and there is plenty of good used out there. I am including 4 steel 14" GM disc brake wheels as well as what is on the car. The car will be loaded with all brand new/used parts with great care. 

    YES, I do have the doors.  They were off to be redone.  They are very very nice.  NO HOLES in them.  Very clean bottoms as well.

     The only reason I stopped is because I have a ton of money in my NOVA that is near complete.  I have not touched this car in a year. I'm looking to pass it on at this point.  I want to see somebody else enjoy it.  In the event it DOES NOT sell I don't plan on relisting it.  I already have much invested plus my time.  Not thrilled bout letting it go but if the money is there it is going to go.

      I am in CONGERS, NY 10920. That is where the car will have to be towed from.  IF you aren't coming yourself keep in mind that you are responsible for all fees to transport this vehicle. I DO NOT live on a major road.  A HUGE CAR CARRIER CAN NOT go down my street.  I have a friend who has a home on a main road and is in the towing business.  It will be responsibility of owner to pay him his fees to tow car at his home and store.  If you are coming with a small rig or a trailer there is no issue.

        The car is priced in it's market value.  NO MATTER what it is "THE HOT ONE" a 57 Chevy.  That can't be taken from it.  Many may not know what to do or have forsight.  The vision I had was an easy $50-75k car when finished.  I've been in this my whole life and done many, sadly time becomes an issue.  These days I don't have the time.  Just looking to clear it out so somebody else can enjoy it.

 

  PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS IF ANYTHING IS UNCLEAR.....

 

 

  I AM MAKING THIS CLEAR IN WRITING I HAVE NO TIME TO PLAY GAMES. THE PRICE YOU BID IS WHAT YOU PAY.  THE ONLY FORM OF PAYMENTS I ACCEPT ARE CASH, TRANSFER OR BANK CHECK.  NO I O US, NO CREDIT CARDS, NO PAY PAL!!!! (THAT IS ONLY FOR $500 deposit).  If you are one of those guys who is scared to do E bay transactions and have to ask your wife, this isn't for you.  I have purchased many cars off E bay and zero issues getting the people paid I purchased the cars from so the same should apply to the buyer of this car.   Thank you in advance.

GM posts $4 billion third-quarter profit thanks to trucks and SUVs

Thu, Nov 5 2020

DETROIT — General Motors is posting huge third quarter numbers, pulling in $4 billion in profit over three months after losing money due to the virus outbreak. GM's adjusted earnings were $2.83 per share, easily outpacing Wall Street's per-share projections of $1.43, according to a survey by FactSet. Revenue of $35.5 billion also edged out most expectations. Shares jumped almost 6% before the opening bell Thursday. The company swung back from a $806 million loss in the second quarter, when it was restarting factories shuttered for safety during the early stages of the pandemic. The Detroit automaker joined most global automakers in reporting better-than-expected earnings from July through September as sales across the globe started to rebound from coronavirus lockdowns, especially in China. GM sales in China jumped 12% in the third quarter, with sales of its Buick and Cadillac brands both rising more than 25%. In the U.S., GMÂ’s most profitable market, sales fell 9.9% in the third quarter compared with a year ago, but were a dramatic improvement over the 34% drop in the second quarter. Sales improved sequentially each month, the automaker said, an encouraging trend. GMÂ’s profit was boosted by higher-priced pickup trucks and large SUVs, which have seen strong sales in the U.S. through the pandemic. It was the best quarter on record for GM's Chevrolet Blazer. Sales of the Cadillac XT6 spiked 45% in the U.S. over last year. Large pickups also sold well. GM also said it was pumping $2 billion into its Spring Hill, Tennessee manufacturing plant to push its transition to produce electric vehicles. Last week, crosstown rivals Fiat Chrysler and Ford reported strong third-quarter net income. FCA said it made $1.4 billion for the period, while Ford earned $2.39 billion.

New Corvette Feature Keeps An Eye On Valets

Wed, Aug 20 2014

Face it. If you own a luxury or sports car, whenever you hand the keys to a valet, you imagine the car going on a high-speed joyride like the Ferrari in the 1980s cult movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off." Now, General Motors has an option on the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette that takes those worries away. The latest version of the sports car, due out in September, has a feature that records where the car goes with a camera mounted in the windshield trim. It also captures audio in the cabin as well as speed, engine revolutions per minute, gear position and G-force. That all helps the car tattle on any valet who doesn't take a slow, direct route to a parking space. GM says it's the most extensive attempt by an automaker to thwart valet joyriders, although it's not the first. The automotive website Edmunds.com says Hyundai and Mercedes offer "geofencing," a feature that sets a perimeter and then notifies the owner's smart phone if a car goes beyond it. Chrysler has a valet mode that caps engine speed and horsepower, while Audi lets owners limit engine speed for valets. With the Corvette, once the owner activates the feature with a four-digit code, the touch screen tells the driver it's in Valet Mode. But it doesn't warn the valet that he's being recorded. The feature also locks the glove box and a storage compartment in the dashboard and shuts down the infotainment system. Valet Mode started off as a performance data recorder for those who take their Corvettes on the racetrack. GM engineers quickly figured out that it had more uses. "Think of it as a baby monitor for your car," Corvette Product Manager Harlan Charles said in a statement. "Anyone who has felt apprehension about handing over their keys will appreciate the peace of mind of knowing exactly what happened while their baby was out of sight." Data and video from the valet mode can be viewed instantly by the owner on the car's 8-inch color screen when the car is parked, or it can be downloaded to a computer. The system could go into more mainstream models if feedback is good on the Corvette, GM spokesman Monte Doran said. The feature is paired with a navigation system and costs $1,795. A 2015 Corvette starts at just under $54,000. Chevrolet Technology Gadgets

Steve McQueen's last movie car, now Pawn Stars-owned, up for auction [w/video]

Sun, 03 Feb 2013

The last car Steve McQueen ever drove in a movie is officially up for auction. The 1951 Chevrolet Styline DeLuxe Convertible you see above is now owned by none other than Rick Harrison of Pawn Stars fame, but once ferried McQueen around the set of his last film, 1980's The Hunter. That flick saw the Bullit star play a bumbling bounty hunter and didn't exactly set the box office on fire. McQueen bought the car after production wrapped, and four years later it sold at his estate sale at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas.
Flash forward to 2003, and the convertible received a full restoration back to near-stock specifications. Hagerty Insurance estimates the car to be worth around $45,000 without the significant providence. Given its ties to one of film's most popular gearheads, the old Chevrolet could fetch up to 10 times that when it goes under the gavel in Ft Luaderdale, Florida on March 22. You can head over to the Auctions America site for more information. You can also check out the trailer for The Hunter below.
