Up for auction is a 1957 Chevy 2 Door Hard Top Bel Air.  No engine or transmission.  I do have a 1957 motor 283, but it is not the original engine that came out in the car.  It is still together but would need completely gone through.  If the buyer wants the engine, I will include it with the car. 

My family has owned the car for close to 25 years where it has been kept inside a garage for the duration of this time.  The only thing that we ever did to the car was pulled the bumpers off with the intentions of having them re-chromed - but it never came to pass.  I re-installed them right before I pulled the car out of its resting place and cleaned it up for the pictures shown.

If you wanted to make a driver out of the car, it is in good enough shape.  You would just need to do a motor, transmission, brakes and fuel system.  If you are looking for a show car, this would be an awesome solid start for a complete restoration. 

You'll note from the pictures that this car has fuel injection badges on the front fenders.  That is how we purchased the car.  I can't confirm or deny that it came from the factory that way.

I know it is hard to buy from a picture, so I took a lot of different shots and also made a video.  In my opinion, the car has a pretty solid body - looks like the worst is the bottom quarter panel on the drivers side (right in front of the tire).  The passenger side door has also been scraped and dented.  You should be able to see in the pics that I pulled the seats and carpet out to get some photos of the floor pans so you can get a more clear picture of the condition that the car is in and then of course I reinstalled the carpet and seats as they were.  It will need driver and passenger side front floor pans.  The rear floor pans, trunk pan, and fire wall appear to be very solid.  The front floor pans would be okay if you are just fixing a driver.  It has one front and one rear body mount rusted out on the drivers side and has one rear body mount rusted out on passenger side which should be visible in pictures.   This car would be in rough shape by some peoples' standards, but a great start for others.  We obviously saw something in it to store it for 25 years.

If you would like to come by and look at the car or send an inspector, you are more than welcome.

Fewer than 1 in 3 Chevy dealers earn right to initially sell C7 Corvette

Mon, 01 Apr 2013

Looking to make the launch of the 2014 Corvette Stingray as efficient as possible, Chevrolet will be limiting the numbers of its dealers that can sell the all-new coupe and convertible. According to Automotive News, sales of the C7 Corvette will initially be limited to less than a third of Chevy's total dealership network when the 'Vette goes on sale this summer.
Only 900 dealers out of more than 3,000 locations nationwide will be allowed to sell the new Corvette at first, and the reason for this is so that there are no shortages at dealers that can actually get the cars sold. The article says that the 900 dealerships chosen represented 80 percent of total Corvette sales in 2012.
Some of the requirements dealers had to make to get initial allocation of Stingray sales include having sold at least four Corvettes in 2012 and having a Corvette Stingray specialist who will be required to have gone through a training session costing more than $2,000 per attendee. Once demand for the 2014 Corvette Stingray begins to subside - approximately six to nine months after it goes on sale - then allocation could open up to more dealers, but the report indicates this could happen following the 2014 model year.

LG Chem ready to double workforce at plant that makes Volt batteries

Fri, May 15 2015

With a history that involves paying people not to work, the fact that LG Chem is going to hire more people for its electric-vehicle battery plant in Holland, Michigan is good news on a couple fronts for the Korean company. The South Korea-based LG Chem is holding a job fair at the factory about 30 miles west of Grand Rapids. The company wants to double its workforce this year to "several hundred people." LG Chem, whose factory notably makes the cells for General Motors' Chevrolet Volt extended-range electric vehicle battery, is looking for everything from technical operators to maintenance workers to production supervisors. The company held a previous job fair last September that resulted in about 40 people being hired. The prior year, though, LG Chem gained a measure of infamy after the US Department of Energy (DOE) discovered that workers were, for a time, getting paid to do absolutely nothing because low demand for battery packs made it cheaper for the factory to remain idle. With LG Chem also making electric-vehicle battery components for Ford, Renault, Hyundai, and Volvo, though, those lazy days appear to be long gone. Take a look at LG Chem's press release below. Show full PR text LG Chem Michigan Inc. 2nd Job Fair Will Help To Double Its Holland Workforce HOLLAND, Mich., May 13, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- LG Chem Michigan Inc. (LGCMI) is conducting a 2nd job fair on Thursday, May 14 as part of the company's efforts to double the size of its production workforce in 2015. LGCMI is an air-conditioned, clean room production environment with strong opportunity for career growth. Over 250 people attended the first job fair and the company is looking for more people to help it grow with increased production volume and new models. The company is adding production equipment and new processes and expects to employ several hundred people by the end of the year. Globally, LG Chem has numerous automakers as clients for EV batteries including GM, Ford, Renault, Hyundai/Kia, Volvo, Audi and Daimler etc. The company's push to build its workforce continues on Thursday, May 14 with an all-day job fair at the company's facilities, located at 1 LG Way in Holland. The event will take place from 9:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m. and is open to everyone seeking employment opportunities with the company. Prospective candidates should plan to meet with members of LGCMI's staff to learn more about opportunities available at this market-leading, advanced-technology manufacturing company.
