Up for auction is my '66 Belair 4dr with a strong running 283 V8. If you're looking for a car that's two tons of fun to drive or try the car show/cruise lifestyle, this is a perfect way to get in without dropping a bunch of cash. That's why I bought it and I had a blast! Now I'm ready to step up a level. The car never left me stranded. The body has filler and rust underneath (please see pics), but most of the mechanical items have been serviced or replaced (list is below). That's why I'm listing it as a driver, however I've recieved many compliments on it. You let go of the wheel and it goes straight down the road.
It has approx. 98,500 miles on the odometer (I'll update with actual miles tomorrow-haven't been in the garage in a couple weeks.) There are documents that show the engine was replaced at 86,280 miles with an engine that had 39,000 miles on it so real miles are around 51000-52000. Some interesting items included with the car are the original protecto plate, original owner's manual, 1966 Featured accessories book, and build sheet that was found under the rear seat. Decoding the VIN will tell you that it was built in Flint, MI as the 99,664th unit, it's a 4dr 6 pass. sedan with 119" wheelbase, 17 3/4' overall length, 78.6" wide with a 195HP 283V8 engine. Original Paint code is KK (Med. Turquoise/Artesian Turquoise). The current exterior is a flat version of that but interior paint is the original color and looks excellent.
Some of the items replaced/added just before I bought it a year ago include: Headlights, tail lights, tires, shocks, springs on all 4 corners, new gas tank/sending unit/and straps, front and rear brake lines, sway bar end links, water outlet/thermostat, fuel pump, filter, cleaned & rebuilt 2bbl carb, plugs, cap, rotor, wires, belts, hoses, clamps, K&N air cleaner, ceramic coated headers, custom dual exhaust w/flowmaster mufflers, dip stick, repainted valve covers and new gaskets, one new brake drum and 2 wheel cylinders. Since I've had it, the front driver's side of the bench seat has had the panels replaced and new foam underneath. Pretty much all the stuff that goes bad when a car sits has been addressed.
The interior is in very nice shape and is unmolested in the dash area. The glass is also in very good condition. It has power steering and manual drum brakes. The doors shut solid and all the windows roll up and down. All the door locks work. The spare tire in the pic was horrible so currently there is a 15" Z28 wheel and BFG tire in its place as I was eventually going to put 15" wheels on it. If I've forgotten anything, please ask questions and I'll add to this if I have more info. I'll be away 3/1 to 3/3 so if you post a question then, please be patient. I'll probably be able to answer from the road. Please bid smart and for the right reasons. The car is so much fun to drive and reliable but it is what it is. It has bondo and rust but I've had it garaged since I bought it and if anything, there is less rust on it now as I've touched it up underneath every time it was on the lift for an oil change. Please look at the pictures, they tell more than I can write here.
There is a $500 non refundable deposit due within 72 hours of auction end. I hate to do it, but I've had time and money wasted tending to buyers in the past who have outbid other bidders and defaulted. Balance of payment and pickup is due within 2 weeks of auction end. Balance of payment due in cash. Deposit can be paypal or money order as long as I can recieve it within 72 hours. In the event of inclimate weather or special circumstance, alternate pickup may be negotiated but payment is still expected within 2 weeks. If you are local and would like to see the car in person, drop me a line but remember, I am not near the car on March 1-3. The reserve is set to a much lower figure than my total investment in the car so it will definitely be a good deal for whomever gets it! Thanks for taking the time to read my ad.

2014 Chevrolet C7 Corvette wastes no time zooming into Jay Leno's Garage
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Where else would you expect the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray to show up first? Although this time it isn't exactly in Jay Leno's Garage, Leno instead playing an away game at Brown's Classic Auto in Scottsdale, Arizona. Nor does Leno drive the car, instead taking an 11-minute walkaround of the new American sports car with General Motors design head Ed Welburn, the same man who recently brought by a string of classic Corvettes to the talk show host's California compound.
It is, admittedly, a love-fest for the American sports car now featuring 450 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque, but one that also features admissions about previous Corvette seats like "they were kinda rough," and the explanation that labeling the coupe "Stingray" means not having to call it "the base Corvette." On top of that, Welburn also explains the proper application of the term "dashboard." You can watch it all in the video below.
Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard
Tue, 19 Mar 2013Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.
Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16
Wed, 06 Feb 2013The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.
