You are looking at probably the best 1955 2-door sedan in the country. This car started out as an original 11,000 actual mile car that was purchased by a Chevrolet product development engineer. The car now has just over 12,000 miles. He proceded to take it completely apart, installing a new Del Ray Interior, installing a brand new LS-1 engine (in 1998), Brand new in the wooden crate Rock Crusher Muncie 4-speed, and a Currie 12 bolt rear end. Front disc brakes were added, new lines, fuel tank, aluminum radiator, as well as NUMEROUS NOS GM parts he located in GM warehouses. Some item found were NOS grille, bumpers, windshield wipers, 59-60 Impala 4-speed shifter as well as the M-22 Rock Crusher. This car is unbelievable and even has the original red primer still on the floor pans. The door jams, inside the trunk area, and the firewall STILL HAVE THE ORIGINAL PAINT. Sorry no spare tire or jack. Notice the rivets on the side of the hood as well as the ones on the underside of the front fender well. It was repainted with the original color Lacquer paint and drives perfectly. I have owned this car for over 15 years and only showed it once at Goodguys in Charlotte where it won an award, being picked by one of the track operators as the car he most would like to own. Look over the pictures closely. This is a one of a kind example of a highly collectible 1955 Chevy. Sorry no TRADES. Car is located in NC.

Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts
Wed, 27 Feb 2013There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.
Helicopter crashes on Top Gear Korea set while chasing Corvette ZR1
Mon, 11 Feb 2013The formula of Top Gear Korea is seemingly about the same as it is everywhere else in the world, including the flagship British original: involve interesting cars in fantastical situations with charismatic hosts. That prescription has proved to be pretty reliable over the years, and has lead to some truly memorable and exciting pieces of television.
Something like that was undoubtedly what the Korean producers were after when they lined up this segment - a drag race between a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and an AH1 Cobra military helicopter. The planners almost certainly did not expect the filming of the segment to go quite as wrong as it actually did, with the helicopter actually crashing into the dirt after the "drag race" had been completed. Thankfully, we're told that no one was seriously injured in the crash, but the footage, in the video below, is pretty damn chilling to watch, nevertheless.
Why Cadillac thinks it needs to succeed in Europe to sell cars elsewhere
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Ward's Auto has taken an interesting look at the renewed focus General Motors is showing towards Cadillac in Europe. Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe (pictured), says in order for the luxury brand to thrive in China, it first needs to succeed in the old country. The reason? Chinese buyers look to Europe for cues as to what's deemed worthy of the term "luxury." There are hurdles to the plan, however. In addition to the fact that the EU is flooded with high-end nameplates, GM doesn't necessarily have the distribution network in place to put buyers behind the wheel.
Combine that with persistent economic woes and Cadillac's checkered past marred by a lack of diesel engine options and a bankrupt distributor, and the road ahead for the brand looks like less of an uphill climb and more like a straight-up cliff face. But Docherty is optimistic and says she has a plan for the brand. We recommend heading over to Ward's for a closer look at the full read.
