This 1961 Chevrolet Bel-Air Bubbletop is the first year of the Fifth Generation Chevrolet Bel Air body style. Everything about his car evokes pure Americana! Finished in black exterior with black bucket seats and a 4 speed. Offering you the options you want at an affordable price. A majority of bubbletops out there have commanded price tags in the $30,000-$60,000 dollar range and have reached the stratosphere in pricing. It is rare to find an example that is affordable and completely drivable. What sets this car apart is its drivability, options and color combination. Making this Bubbletop a solid investment as a car you can enjoy and watch it appreciate in value as the years continue. This 61 Bubble top has been well cared for and slightly upgraded over the years to house a WK code 1969 350 small block with solid lifters and shifted by 4 Speed transmission. It is obvious that over the years a lot of time and effort went into the build of this car, keeping with the Bel Air theme but upgrading it with things like Impala bucket seats out of a 1964. Ultimately, making this original grandma car a heart stopping Bel Air as any Hot Rodder would have liked back in the day. To note this Bubbletop has great sounding rumble and is extremely fun to drive! The 61 Chevrolet Bel Airs were a totally new body for GM not just new sheetmetal although the wheelbase stayed the same at 119in but its length was reduced slightly from previous years. The Bel air 2 door “bubble top” design has been the highlight for collectors with minimal production numbers compared to other GM makes and models with only 8,671 6cy and 9686 V8’s made. Although, not a fresh restoration this 61 Bel Air has a very sharp flare to her. No need to do any restoration work as she all the work has been done to make her an eye catcher and quality driver. Paint appears to be a few years old with normal wear that you would expect, for example a few scratches near the hood area and some wear at the extreme corners. The interior is finished very nicely with an Impala Steering wheel and bucket seats all of which are in great condition. The exterior trim does have a few nicks and dings but what shows the most wear on the whole car is the front bumper does show hazing and the wind wings glass is original and starting to delaminate. Rubber front and rear window trim does show cracking from age and could easily be replaced. Engine compartment and trunk are absolutely amazing.

GM plans new car family for global markets, $5B investment
Tue, Jul 28 2015Globalization remains all the rage in the auto industry, as manufacturers scramble to develop single vehicles that can easily be adapted to the world's disparate market places. Ford has been a champion of this movement, with its One Ford mandate, but now, its cross-town rival is getting in on the action, albeit on a smaller scale. General Motors has announced a $5-billion investment to develop a new Chevrolet-badged family vehicle for global growth markets, including Brazil, Mexico, India, and importantly, China. With the PRC listed as a target market for the new vehicle, it's no surprise that GM is teaming with its Chinese joint-venture partner, SAIC Motor, to develop the vehicle's architecture and engines. The first vehicles should be hitting dealers by 2019, with GM expecting to eventually move some two million units per year. "With a significant majority of anticipated automotive industry growth in 2015 to 2030 outside of mature markets, Chevrolet is taking steps to capitalize on that growth," GM President Dan Ammann said in the attached statement. "Strengthening Chevrolet's position through this major investment is consistent with our global strategy to ensure long-term profitable growth in the markets where we operate." GM is quite focused on developing markets for a new vehicle, going as far as to say that "mature markets" like the US aren't currently being considered for the new family vehicle. As for where it will be built, the press release specifically says it won't be exported to the US, meaning it will very likely be built abroad using parts from local suppliers. Read on for the official press release from General Motors. Chevrolet Strengthens Position in Growth Markets with $5 Billion Investment 2015-07-28 All-new vehicle family tailored to local customer requirements General Motors and SAIC Motor partnership further enhanced DETROIT – Chevrolet announced today it is investing $5 billion to strengthen its business in global growth markets through the development of an all-new vehicle family that will meet the rapidly changing demands of customers in these markets. "With a significant majority of anticipated automotive industry growth in 2015 to 2030 outside of mature markets, Chevrolet is taking steps to capitalize on that growth," said General Motors President Dan Ammann.
2016 Chevrolet Camaro: Everything we know so far [UPDATE]
Fri, May 15 2015UPDATE: We fully expect the floodgates to open as facts and photos leak throughout the day. Watch this space for more information as it breaks, including these leaked photos, and some new powertrain speculation. Chevrolet has made a grand production of teasing the all-new, sixth-generation Camaro. That slow trickle will become a deluge this weekend, when the 2016 model hits the stage on Detroit's Belle Isle as part of an all-day Camaro-palooza. Considering you're likely to hear plenty about the next-gen muscle car in the next couple days, we figured now is the perfect time to sort out all the facts and rumors we've heard about the next-generation coupe that's coming this weekend. Here's everything we know about Camaro Six. What Will It Look Like? Arguably the easiest Camaro question to answer after all the teasers and spy shots, General Motors' design team favored evolving the current car's retro design language while retaining the same basic shape. The long hood will carry on, joined by an even shorter, wing-topped rear deck, giving the 2016 an almost fastback-like look. The greenhouse is still slim, but lateral visibility may improve slightly owing to the larger quarter windows. We can only hope. The rear end looks to have been rounded, while Chevy's own teaser shows off larger, more prominent taillight housings than the simple rectangular lights on today's car. Expect quad-tipped exhausts to be offered on at least one version of the Camaro. Judging by the single teaser of the car's profile, the rear haunches will be larger and more chiseled. The muscular aluminum hood and its accompanying power bulge are more heavily styled than on today's car, although it looks largely similar in terms of size. It sits atop an even slimmer upper grille that's barely big enough for Chevy's Bowtie logo, with most of the visual mass moving to the gaping lower grille. One of the more tantalizing rumors surrounding the new Camaro focuses on its roof. As evidenced in a rather bizarre round of spy photos, it almost looks like Chevy is considering a removable panel, a la Corvette Stingray. T-tops are also a distinct (and more probable, we hope) possibility. The new shape will result in a more aerodynamic car, and Chevy claims the 2016 Camaro spent 350 hours in the wind tunnel. Overall lift has apparently been cut by 30 percent, thanks partially to a new, smooth underbody panel. Chevrolet has been far less forthcoming with information on the new Camaro's cabin.
