OK, first of all so we are all clear, there is no VIN and no Title to this vehicle or its parts.  I'm calling it a parts car or a builder if you have your own title.  This was purchased to be restored and after blasting it we have decided to go in a different direction. It is a California boxed frame car, 1957 Bel Air 2 door hardtop.  The body and all sheetmetal has been professionally blasted and Epoxy primered at a cost of 2,500.  The chassis is original with a very rare 283 not sure if it is original to the chassis, with power steering and power brakes, all these parts are included as well as what is on the pallet in the picture.  Also included is a full new floorpan from Ecklers from rocker to rocker and front to back, this cost 1,200.  You also get a new decklid from Ecklers that cost 1,000 as well as a full left quarter panel from Ecklers that cost 1,000.  That is all the replacement sheetmetal that will come with the car.  No trim is included or windows, all that you get is on the pallet or setting on the car, no bumpers.  The car has some rust, is is all very repairable as you can see, one door has rust inside it at the bottom and should be replaced, both fenders are solid except for at the bottoms where they need patched.  Both quarters have rust under the side moldings and at the bottom.  the hood has rust at the back edge but is repairable.  Right side rocker panel and one floor brace need replacing and that is about it.  The trunk is solid, roof is good and firewall.  Minor rust in trunk gutter and around right front of windshield lower area.  I highly recommend that you look at the car before bidding because I don't want any whining when you see it has some rust.  It will be hard to load on a transport truck due to all the parts so if you intend to ship it you will have to arrange all of that and I will load it but they usually don't like to ship them with that many loose pieces.  Any questions or concerns feel free to call at 972-496-3278 Again, NO TITLE or VIN numbers with this project car.  Bill of sale will be provided. It is not a salvage title but I had to put something on it for ebay.  Also, we can put the body on the chassis before pickup to help out with shipping it.

GM won't sell 2014 Chevrolet SS in Canada

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

Allow us to be the first to extend our condolences to our friends to the north. General Motors has announced the 2014 Chevrolet SS will not be available in Canada. The Globe and Mail reports the automaker has confirmed the high-performance sedan won't hit Canadian dealers, though GM hasn't offered up any reasoning as to why that is.
Buyers here in the US of A, meanwhile, can look forward to getting their hands on the 415-horspower, rear-wheel drive SS by late summer. Something tells us it won't be long after that before Canadian officials start seeing individually imported 6.2-liter V8 four-doors in their neighborhoods. Fortunately, Canadian buyers will still be able to take home the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. The C7 bowed at the Canadian International Auto Show last week, reportedly drawing sizable crowds and interest.

Pure Vision Design TT Camaro has 1,400 reasons to want it

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

We've talked about Pure Vision Design before, a California-based company that made waves at last year's SEMA show with its Martini-liveried, Indy-car-powered Ford Mustang. That same car later starred in a Petrolicious video we showed you just a few weeks back. The company's latest creation is a menacing car it calls the Pure Vision Design TT Camaro. Based on a 1972 model, this car shares the Martini Mustang's clean styling and obsession with details.
Unlike the Mustang, which draws its power from a mid-60s Lotus-Ford Indycar engine, the "TT" in this Camaro's name implies something far more potent. The Nelson Racing Engines 427-cubic-inch V8 has been fitted with a pair of turbochargers, with a claimed output of 1,400 horsepower. That's almost 1,000 more than the Martini Mustang.
A six-speed Magnum transmission dispatches that power to the ground, while Pirelli PZero tires are tasked with (somehow) trying to grip the road. Baer brakes hide behind those HRE rims, while JRI coilovers and HyperTech springs bless the Camaro with some degree of competency in the bends.

General Motors shaking up its marketing... again

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")
