1955 Chevrolet -two Door Sedan, Equipped With Ls2 & 4l60e on 2040-cars
Johnson City, Texas, United States
|
Selling my 1955 Chevy 150 Sedan. A previous owner put Bel-Air trim inside and out so I left it as is. If only they had known! This Tri-5 Classic can be driven anywhere. The 2006 LS2 & 4L60E drive train make this little sleeper fun, dependable, economical and very fast. The patina paint and powder coated bumpers make it easy to clean. With Power steering(605), Power disc brakes up front, Tilt Chrome column, Vintage A/C-heat-defrost with controls in stock position(new Sandon 508 AC compressor), Front stabilizer and low stance, it is a pleasure to drive. It handles like a sports car, stops on a dime and gives you instant response when you press on the pedal. "Classic Instruments" gauge panel in the stock bezel keep you informed of all critical operation. Stock electric 2-speed windshield wipers. The front seats are 67 GTO w/new seat covers. The rear is a stock 55 Chevy that is rolled and pleated vinyl as are the door panels. The carpet is adequate, not great, but presentable. I removed all the seats and carpet when I installed the new seat covers. I installed hush-mat insulation from the firewall to and including the trunk. I built a console to store the engine and gas pedal computer. The console is divided so there is room for other storage as well. The cover can be quickly removed for maintenance or inspection. The glove box is shallow due to the AC unit, but there is room for storage. There is also a spacious storage console/2-cup holder mounted between the seats. It still has the original headliner,sun visors and glass. The glass has some bubbling and scratches, but no cracks. The felts and rubbers are good, not new. All door handles and window cranks work properly. Door locks have key and work great. The rear windows are stationary and there is no window hardware on this model. New wiring harness front to back. Head lights(high-low),tail lights(LED's),turn signals,back-up lights,stop lights, dash lights work properly. Floor interior lights on a toggle switch.
Engine: Stock 2006 LS2, 6.0, all aluminum 400HP Fuel Injected motor. 21 MPG Highway. Stand alone, engine harness and drive by wire accelerator pedal harness where built by Speed and Performance. Test receptacle under dash. I was told by the previous seller that Speed and Performance installed the drive train and electronics as well. There name and there serial number are on the computers. Coated headers w/sensors move the exhaust. The accessories turn via a serpentine belt system w/chrome mounting brackets and pulleys. Huge 2 row/1" core crossflow radiator and a 16" Electric fan keeps everything cool. The fan is also on a toggle switch. I have not needed to use the fan in the winter. Transmission: Matching 4L60E from same donor car. The quicker you mash the pedal, the quicker it shifts. The differential is an 8.5 10 Bolt Chevy with 3:73 gears. Traction bars and mono-leaf Fiberglass rear springs help launch this old shoe-box with little hesitation. Chassis: Stock 55 Chevy w/stock front suspension. New upper and lower ball joints, A-arm bushings, stabilizer bar, front disc brake conversion(drums on rear) and 2" dropped spindles. Front tires are 215/60R/15, rear are 255/60R/15(biggest I could get in stock wheel welds) on Wheel Vintiques wheels. Small spare in trunk w/small floor jack and lug wrench. Extra serpentine belt(just in case). Tried to show a picture of a dent in the lower passenger side door. It also exposed some body filler. It can be repaired but I was reminded that this is a nostalgic driver and no one will notice anyway. New trunk mat installed after installing hush-mat insulation. A previous owner cut the dash where the radio goes, so I put a Sony AM/FM/CD/Cassette player in the hole. Kenwood speakers are mounted in the rear deck.I didn't install an antenna because I prefer to pick my own music. Floor pan on passenger side has an amateur repair job, but it is sturdy and insulated. Installed a new cigarette lighter receptacle with correct knob to charge cell phones and other accessories. Sure I forgot something. Emails OK, but I prefer to talk in person. So please call with any relative questions @512-466-5307. All "REASONABLE OFFERS" considered. I am negotiable, but not desperate. Not interested in any trades. Need the room for other projects. Can send other pictures if necessary NO SCAMMERS, TIRE KICKERS, THIRD PARTY SELLERS, GAME PLAYERS. If you DO NOT have the funds to close the deal immediately, DO NOT BID! Your adherence to this request will be greatly appreciated. That said, GOOD LUCK, GOD BLESS & HAPPY BIDDING.

Kurt Busch to shake and bake (again) in Ricky Bobby car at Talladega
Sat, 19 Oct 2013Kurt Busch will channel Ricky Bobby for another NASCAR race, this time driving a Wonder-sponsored Chevrolet SS, in this weekend's Camping World RV Sales 500 at the Talladega Motor Speedway. Unlike past tie-ins, though, there's actually an element of sponsorship here (the "Me" car was done when Busch was running on a team without sponsorship).
It was arranged by Flower Foods, the new owner of the Wonder brand. Wonder was part of the bankrupt Hostess company, which temporarily exited the US market 2012, and set off the Great Twinkie Shortage.
Busch has made something of a habit of channeling characters from famous racing movies, most recently running Tom Cruise's City Chevrolet livery from Days of Thunder in a Nationwide Series race earlier this year. Busch kicked off his movie-inspired antics, though, at Talladega in 2012, when he raced El Diablo's ("It's like... Spanish for like a fighting chicken") "Me" car complete with a cougar on the hood. He even went so far as to channel the lovable idiot that is Ricky Bobby during the race, dropping a few catchphrases about macchiatos and slingshots.
GM already raising prices on 2014 Silverado and Sierra pickups
Mon, 14 Oct 2013General Motors must be pretty pleased with sales of its two newest pickups, the GMC Sierra and Chevrolet Silverado, as it's announced price hikes for both models, as part of a planned price tweak.
Prices will be bumped by as much as $1,500, although weirdly, they'll be offset by as much as $1,500 in cash-back offers through the end of October. Fox Business reports that GM spokesman Jim Cain said of the price hike, "With the sell down of the '13 models nearly complete, this price adjustment was planned and is a normal part of business."
The move, as Fox is quick to point out, is an interesting one, as sales of the twin pickups struggled last month relative to the Ford F-Series, while both of GM's crosstown competitors have been aggressively undercutting Silverado and Sierra prices. The F-150 starts at $24,070 and the Ram 1500 comes in at $23,600, not counting any cash on the hood. A base Silverado, meanwhile, retails at $25,575.
2015 Chevy Tahoe gets Police Patrol Vehicle treatment
Thu, 07 Nov 2013That was fast. Mere days after showing a Police Concept based on the 2015 Tahoe at the SEMA Show, Chevrolet has announced that it will build a PPV model based on the SUV to do battle with the Ford Police Interceptor Utility (Explorer) and Dodge Durango Special Service.
You'll recall that the Tahoe has been police staple for several years, predating both the Explorer and Durango police variants, so the fact that the new model would spawn a police variant is hardly surprising. Like the civilian model, the 2015 PPV benefits from a more efficient 5.3-liter, direct-injection V8 that pumps out 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. It also features more high-strength steel, offering better crash protection, on top of optional safety items like lane departure warning, forward collision alert and a Safety Alert Seat.
The press release is rather light on police-specific items, aside from the auxiliary battery, which keeps the myriad of electronics in a modern police car running even when the engine isn't. Lightbars, 17-inch steel wheels on Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires and a push bar round out the mods for the Tahoe PPV. The cabin features a revised center console and room for laptop and other equipment mounts.
