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.

Dodge vs. Chevy tug-of-war taken to the extreme

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues

Wed, 28 Dec 2011

'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.

Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]

Fri, 25 Jan 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?
