This is a very original, rare, and solid Chevy 210 series two door hard top. Out of approx 62,000 + hard tops built in 1953, only 14,000 or so 210 series cars were produced. The rest were Belairs. It only has 92,634actual miles on it. Very solid and straight body car with no signs of rust repair that I can see. All original body panels, floor pans, rockers, body mounts, fenders, door bottoms, etc. with no rust or repair work. The underside of this car looks to have been sand blasted to bare metal and painted black. Very nice job. See pics. ( the brown spots are just mud splatters from a country road with mud puddles ) The one re-paint is very shinny, smooth, and in great shape. Looks to be a single stage urethane enamel job. All of the stainless trim is in great shape. Chrome is presentable, but I would re-chrome both bumpers and grille. The grille is in great shape but it was painted chrome for some reason? I have both front and rear Chevrolet hood emblems that were removed. Both need re-chroming and new plastics if put back on. The hood bird is new reproduction. Have original in trunk also. Also have like new fender skirts and sun visors. New tune up items, belt, hoses, battery. Included is original wheels and hubcaps, and a power assist rack and pinion steering set-up for it, including the frame bracket. Suspension is all new including shocks. It was lowered the right way with dropped spindles and rear spacers. ( see pics ) New shocks, exhaust, brakes, Wide White Wall tires, etc. The wheels are rare and "REAL" original E T uni-lug all aluminum wheels. This car sits right, looks right, drives right, and stops right. You can drive it anywhere and get back home. All lights work. All gauges work. Radio and wipers do not work. Seat covers and door panels appear to be all original and still very nice except for some age stains. Headliner and carpeting has been replaced with new. Still has that great old car smell every time you open up a door. Glass is all good and rolls up and down as it should. Even the trim around the glass is in very good shape. The original 236 engine was completely rebuilt. The 3 speed transmission shifts great. Has a new clutch. Original spare still in the trunk.   


This car could very easily put back to totally original condition for the purist. 

Car runs out really well. Fly in and drive it home. 

All in all, this is one of the nicest rust free cars of this style that I have come across for many years, and when was the last time you seen a 1953 Chevrolet 210 series 2 door hardtop for sale?

2020 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra recalled due to faulty brake component

Wed, Mar 11 2020

General Motors is recalling 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 pickups to fix a defect in the trucks' brake system. Certain Silverado and Sierra pickups were produced with brake-caliper bolts that were not heat-treated. Without heat-treating, the bolts are weaker than they should be, and there is a risk that they could fail, which would affect the trucks' braking performance, possibly leading to a crash. In total, 20,352 vehicles are affected. Owners of affected trucks will be contacted by GM. Dealers will inspect the bolts and replace those that are defective. Related Video:      

The Corvette Museum sinkhole has been filled

Wed, Feb 11 2015

After swallowing eight of the most prized pieces of the collection from the National Corvette Museum, the massive sinkhole from a year ago is rapidly becoming nothing but a bad memory. Based on the museum's weekly construction update, you can barely see the remnants of the 25-foot deep hole once in the floor. The Corvette Museum's Skydome was not always going to look like this. The original hope was to keep the sinkhole there as a tourist attraction. That plan eventually fell through, though, and instead it was decided five of the less-damaged Corvettes would remain unrestored. Progress has been moving fast to get the repairs done. Even a month ago, the hole was still very visible, and the construction company used remote-controlled Bobcat loaders to fill it in. Now, the museum has launched a contest to guess how many tons of stone it took to fill in the massive crater. The winner gets a print of the 2009 Corvette ZR1 Blue Devil being lifted out.

Jay Leno gets pulled over while roaring in a Corvette Z06 convertible

Tue, Jan 6 2015

No one is above the law, even if that person is a certain silver-haired auto enthusiast with a popular weekly video series about the cars in his garage. This week, Jay Leno experiences the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z06, but he also gets to have a meeting with some of California's Finest immediately after a high-speed blast. As opposed to the full-bore Z06 coupe with the seven-speed manual, Leno gets behind the wheel of the slightly heavier convertible version with the eight-speed auto. Being a droptop doesn't bother him too much, but Leno makes it obvious he wishes that he could be shifting for himself. Even if the auto is technically quicker, Leno says that swapping gears gives him something to do while driving. Of course, one of the major advantages of the convertible is the ability to listen to the Z06's thumping V8 unimpeded. With 650 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque from 6.2-liters of supercharged muscle, it already puts down impressive numbers, but the sound might just be the best part of all. Around town, the 'Vette is quiet enough to easily blend in with the rest of traffic. However, tip the throttle down and the valves in the exhaust open up to turn the engine into roaring monster. Be careful where you make this thing howl, though, because it's pretty easy for the police to take notice. The host finds that out the hard way in this week's episode of Jay Leno's Garage.
