BEAUTIFUL INDIAN IVORY OVER INDIGO BLUE 1954 chevrolet delray 210 2 door post automobile.......NEEDS AN ENGINE......this car came from the dry area of Utah. It was almost rust free. The only repair for rust was behind the rear wheels and below the trunk.  Paint is fantastic with no waves, dents etc except where I knocked a small amount of paint off of the bottom of the doors with a tow dolly. Interior is all new, very nice, new glass, passenger door glass has a scratch. All new weatherstripping. New headliner and new carpet but the carpet fit was not the best. I restored the car about two years ago. Installed a 70 chevy 283 with a 4 barrel rochester quadrajet, a turbo 350 trans and a 57 chevy rear end with 305 gears. Car ran and drove great. Bumpers were chromed, grille, tail lights etc are original, not perfect but very nice. It all fits better than the aftermarket stuff and is better quality.  The car recently developed a bad miss. A tear down exposed a broken valve. The cylinders have very little wear but have a few good size scratches and evidence of previous rust damage. The engine supposedly only had 30,000 miles on it but had set in an old farm truck for a lot of years.  Heads are the double hump  with the 202 valves. I pulled the engine with the plan of installing a GM crate 350 and then putting it up for sale. I have decided to offer it as is so the buyer can buy it cheaper and install the engine of his choice. If it doesn't meet my reserve I will put in a new 350.'   Just a few extras, true mileage unknown, I have extra indigo blue paint for touch up, dash is beautiful. Radio is face only for looks, does not work, electric wipers, tires have good tread but hoosier quit making street tires ten tears ago. Doors,hood, trunk alignment is very good. Original suspension, drum brakes.  The car is an automatic but column is a converted 3 speed stick shift that works great. I bought an aftermarket aotomatic shift indicator for the column but never installed it.  I will now TRY to upload pictures...my reserve is a secret. NO ENGINE IN THE CAR NOW. ENGINE NEEDS REBUILT IT IS INCLUDED IN THE SALE IF YOU WANT IT ALONG WITH MANIFOLD, CARB, WATERPUMP AND ALL THAT WAS BOLTED TO IT.

Forgot to add that I have pictures of the fenders, doors etc that show the rust free condition. I also forgot to add that I did have to repair a couple of the braces under the car that go from the frame to the body. They were solid but had small holes in them. They collect water and Utah sand.,the car does have all new rubber bushings between the frame and body.  Also all of the stainless is dent free except a small dent in the 6 inch long spear on the right front of the quarter panel. I have a replacement piece to go with this sale. I am sure I have forgotten something. Feel free to ask any questions. Even stupid one, I'm guilty of that sometimes.

GM recalls half-million full-size SUVs to address seatbelt issue

Tue, Aug 16 2022

GM is recalling its redesigned full-size SUV models to address improperly riveted mounts securing the third-row seatbelts that may fail in the event of an accident. The population includes the 2021-2022 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV, 2021-2022 Chevrolet Suburban and Tahoe, and 2021-2022 model year GMC Yukon and Yukon XL, for a total of 484,155 vehicles. "Operators at the supplier’s manufacturing plant may have not properly followed manufacturing processes and inadvertently missed the rivet forming operation," GM said in its defect report to NHTSA. "In certain of these vehicles, the rivet that retains the buckle to the mounting bracket in the left or right side third-row seatbelt buckle assembly may not have been properly formed during the manufacturing process. If the third-row seatbelt assembly is not properly riveted, it may not properly restrain occupants in a crash, increasing the risk of injury." Fortunately, the fix is relatively simple. GM service technicians will inspect the rivets on the rear seatbelt buckle assemblies and replace the entire unit if the rivets are not to spec. Dealer notifications have already been distributed; owners should receive notice start in September. Related video: Cadillac Chevrolet GM GMC Ownership Safety SUV

Recharge Wrap-up: Long Beach ePrix, London's new electric buses

Tue, Jul 21 2015

London will put 51 new electric buses into service. With the addition of these buses, two more routes (in addition to one already in operation) will be all-electric. Transport for London plans to have all of central London's 300 single-decker buses running on electricity or hydrogen by 2020. "The expansion of London's electric bus fleet demonstrates our commitment to reducing emissions from public transport in London," says Deputy Mayor of London for Environment and Energy, Matthew Pencharz. "The Ultra Low Emission Zone that will be introduced in 2020 is the most ambitious measure of its kind taken to tackle air pollution anywhere in the world, and it will transform our bus fleet into a cleaner, greener and more pleasant way of travelling for Londoners." Read more from Transport for London, and from Green Car Congress. The Chevrolet Volt is subject to a tie-rod recall. Along with 10 Cruze vehicles, one 2015 Volt has been recalled because of a tie rod that might not have been tightened to the steering gear correctly, which could lead to a loss of steering control. Chevrolet will replace the steering gear assembly, supplied by Robert Bosch Automotive Steering, for free. There have been no reported injuries from this issue. Read more at Detroit News. The Formula E Long Beach ePrix will take place on April 2, 2016. For the second season of the electric racing series, Long Beach is the only confirmed US host, as the spot on the calendar previously held by Miami still remains to be determined. More than 20,000 fans attended the inaugural Long Beach ePrix earlier this year, where Nelson Piquet, Jr. took first place before going on to win the Drivers' Championship. "It's extremely exciting to welcome the ePrix back to Long Beach for a second year," says Long Beach Mayor Robert Garcia, "and we are hopeful that this demonstration of innovation, sustainability, and cutting edge technology will return to our city year after year."

Overall, 10 venues will host Formula E events, with the 2015-16 season beginning once again in Beijing on Oct. 17.

Chevy reveals Colorado Z71 Trail Boss Edition

Sat, Mar 7 2015

Chevrolet wants to make sure that if people are in the market for a midsize pickup, then there is a Colorado available to fit their desires. For businesses, there's the recently unveiled box delete package and for those looking for a customized look, there's the GearOn Edition. For the latest Z71 Trail Boss version, the automaker is going for folks planning to go off-road. As the name suggests, all Trail Boss versions of the Colorado start with the already off-road-inlined Z71 trim level, including its 305-horsepower, 3.6-liter V6 and six-speed automatic, and the package can be added to practically any body variant: extended or crew cab, long or short bed and rear- or four-wheel drive. To set things apart, there's a locking rear differential, front tow hooks, darkened 17-inch wheels that are shod with Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac tires and on the four-wheel drive models, a transfer case shield. For some extra style, the Colorado Trail Boss wears black parts for the fender flares, side steps and Bowtie badges. The bed also gets a spray-on liner and a few parts from the GearOn accessory catalog, including the tie-down rings, load bar and cargo divider. The Trail Boss goes on sale in the spring, and to add all of this equipment to a Colorado, it costs $3,320 in addition to the price of any Z71 trim model.

It is offered in extended and crew cab configurations, with a choice of a long or short cargo bed and available 4WD. The Trail Boss goes on sale this spring with a starting price of $28,505 plus the package price of $3,320. "The Chevrolet Colorado Z71 Trail Boss Edition is equally at home blazing an urban trail or following one to a favorite remote campground," said Tony Johnson, Colorado marketing manager.
