  This is a 1956 Chevy 2-door Belair. that was originally Blue and White. As you can see from the pictures it needs re-done but is pretty complete. It has a 350 with a turbo 400 automatic transmission. Both motor and tranny work well. I did drive this one home and everything worked ok except the heater. The signals work but the lever is coming lose. It's loud and noisy with a exhaust leak in the dual pipes. Radio didn't work. It's a aftermarket tape player. May not be hookd up. I have repaired  the rust by the hood hinges and  the bottom of the front fenders behind the front tires. They both have headlight caps. It has new outer rockers and lower rear patch panels that were put on 20+ years ago. The trunk and rear floors are good. The fronts floors need replaced .The inner rockers have been patched. It needs inner rockers and all the floor braces need the outer ends repaired or replaced. It needs the rear tail pan. With all that being said it has a decent driver interior. It runs and drives decent for a old hot rod. Hard to find this complete. The glass is all good except the windshield is old and smokey along the bottom. I am a Kansas dealer so Kansas residents need to pay 8.8% sales tax to me. Other states pay in you home state. A non- refundable deposit of 500.00 is due within 48 hours and the balance within 7 day's. I prefer a wire transfer or cash on the balance. The car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to sell at any time. I am moving from Hiawatha to Kansas City,Mo and have the car in Kansas City now. You can look or pick it up from either place. Thanks. Call Scott 816-506-3789        I looked today and the toe boards are decent and the right front brace is good. The drivers rear floor is intact but weak on the outer edge. Both front floor pans need replaced. It was loud inside because the right front floor has a 6 inch hole in it and the tailpipe on the right side needs re attached.   Added 12/17/13    I replaced the starter and it works fine. The flywheel does have some worn teeth.  Also the motor is a later model 350 I believe as the oil dip stick is on the right side. I have removed most of the yellow paint. I'm still thinking which way to go on the floor.  Thanks, Scott    I can bring it to the Wichita, Kansas swapmeet Friday Feb 7 [if the weather isn.t to bad ].I have to work my part time job Saturday so I'll only be ther Friday.

Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506

Thu, 02 May 2013

With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.

Camaro-based Trans Am SE Bandit Edition borrows Burt Reynolds

Tue, Mar 29 2016

For some reason, modifying modern Chevrolet Camaros into the lurching, reincarnated shells of the Pontiac brand is still a thing. If you're the perverse sort that likes this kind of thing, you should check out the latest product from the Trans Am Depot, which comes complete with an endorsement from the star of Smokey and the Bandit, Burt Reynolds. Yes, the new Trans Am SE Bandit Edition has been signed and endorsed by the man himself, but what's important here is not the signature on the dash, it's the bits of Camaro that have been modified. Aesthetically, that means a Bandit-and-Frog-approved set of T-tops, a front-opening hood with a very large, prominent shaker scoop, an equally large and prominent screaming chicken, and Trans Am-inspired front and rear fascias. And naturally, Burt Reynolds' signature adorns the dash. There are plenty of reminders in the cabin about this car's Hollywood inspiration, too. Bandit decals can be found on the front headrests and center console lid, there are chicken wings on the Camaro-spec plastic door inserts, and the black-and-tan color scheme matches nicely with the exterior look. And power? Well, Sheriff Buford T. Justice would have a lot more trouble keeping up with this Trans Am than he did with the original. The 7.4-liter LSX V8 has been paired with a 2.9-liter supercharger which is good for 840 horsepower. It's fast and loud, and even if you can't get behind the look (we can't), at least this Camaro-in-Trans Am's clothing can impress with its performance. The Bandit Edition is limited to just 77 units with prices starting around $115,000. You can check out the official video from Trans Am Depot, which comes with a decent helping of Burt Reynolds, up top. Related Video:

J.D. Power study identifies top seats for your tush

Tue, Aug 29 2017

File under News your fanny can use: The seating systems in the Ford Escape and Edge, the Audi A3, Chevrolet Cruze, Kia Cadenza, Porsche Cayenne and Toyota Tundra received top marks in a new J.D. Power study on seating and seat belt quality and satisfaction. The J.D. Power 2017 Seat Quality and Satisfaction Study asked more than 77,000 new owners and lessees of 2017 model-year cars and light trucks to rate their vehicle's seats and seat belts within the first 90 days of taking ownership. The survey is broken up into seven vehicle segments and scored on total seat problems per 100 within each segment, with awards presented to the seating system supplier. Canadian auto supplier Magna won three of seven first-place awards for its seating systems in the A3, Escape and Edge. Ireland-based Adient got top marks for its seats in the Cadenza and Cayenne. Lear Corp. won for the Cruze, and Avanzar Interior Technologies scored highest for seats in the Tundra. J.D. Power says its study is intended for automakers and suppliers with quality and satisfaction information to be used in developing and marketing seating systems. "But the results are just as interesting to a consumer audience," the company says. "After all, some drivers spend a considerable amount of time behind the wheel, and it's helpful to know which vehicles offer the most comfortable seats for those long commutes." Ain't that the truth. Ford was the only automaker whose seat systems, both manufactured by Magna, received top honors in two segments: the Escape for mass-market compact SUV and the Edge for mass-market midsize/large SUV. J.D. Power says it used 22 attributes to measure seat quality, three measures of seat belt quality and 12 to measure satisfaction. Awards were presented to the seating suppliers.
