NO RESERVE!!!!  1955 Chevy Bel Air. This is the 2 door sedan. Its a pretty nice car. It has a 327 and a 4 speed. The car runs fantastic. It drives down the road straight with no rattles or clunks. It sounds fantastic. It is a 4 speed trans and it pops out of 3rd once in awhile. It only does it once in awhile. I have been driving it on a regular basis. All the lights,horn, turn signals and gauges work as they should. It has the factory radio but doesn't work. The car is currently NYS inspected. The motor on the car is a 327. From what I can tell I think its a 327 from a chevelle. It doesn't smoke or knock or tick or anything. It runs awesome!-As for the exterior, It was restored at some point in its life. The paint has a great shine to it. It has some minor flaws but I wouldn't hesitate to take it to shows and cruise ins. I just recently took it to a local show. The body on the car is straight, Not sure what has been done to it but obviously its been painted and redone and would assume it some some fill in it, but it is 58 years old.  . I would say its a strong driver quality. The pics really look like the car. I would say they are an accurate look of the car. The underside----Well I just had the new tires and rims put on the car and it was on the lift so I got a real good look at it. The frame and the floors on the car are really nice. The only issue I found was the body mount in the back by the wheel well had some rot to it. But the actually frame,floors and trunk were great. I took pics of this -Please look at the pics. I was surprised at how nice the underside of the car was. Considering how old the car is. I didn't see any rot on the floors,frame or trunk. They were really clean --The tires and rims on the car are brand new. They are AR Torque thrust D--And they are as big as your gonna get under it. The chrome is excellent!!!!! Both bumpers are mint-The stainless on the car is nice. The interior-----The inside is pretty nice on the car-It could use a carpet kit. It is presentable but whoever put it in cut out around the gas pedal and shifter and could have been done better. Like I said its presentable but you might want to replace it--see the pics--The seat covers look to be new-and look to be professionally installed. The look correct for the car-But I am no 55 chevy expert. When I said the paint had some flaws the inside paint has some flaws. I saw a couple drips in the paint on the trim inside. The door panels are pretty nice-Im sure they were replaced and the headliner looks new. See pics for all this. Im sure I am missing some stuff so feel free to ask questions and ask for any pics you want. -As for the actual car-This is what I found----According to the vin its a VC-which means Bel Air 2400, and according to the trim tag the car is a true 2 door sedan Bel Air,the trim is 513-Turquoise/Ivory the paint code is 612-India Ivory/Regal Turquoise--So whoever restored the car painted it the correct color and did the interior in the correct colors for the car. All in all I would say real nice driver that gets a lot of thumbs up and compliments everywhere it goes. It has driver quality paint and body. Interior is decent and hasn't been chopped up-they did it as factory as they could. Not a perfect car but a real decent driver car. Better than a lot of the cars I have seen on e-bay-We are a NY dealer so Ny residents will have to pay sales tax-I have 100% feedback for a reason and sell a lot of cars on here. I try and be as honest as I can when listing a car. I have seen some of the vague descriptions on here. I feel I have accurately described this cars with its flaws and its good points. This is a no reserve auction-So please read the ad carefully and make sure you want the car before you bid-I require a $1000 deposit immediately following the auction. This is non-refundable. The car is being sold as is with no warranty--Its almost 60 years old!!!!!!  Please come check out the car if you can--or ask questions and I will gladly send any pics you want--I am no 55 chevy expert but I think this is a good deal for the car--

Chevy Corvette gets Valet Mode with Performance Data Recorder [w/video]

Mon, 18 Aug 2014

For the 2015-model-year, Chevrolet introduces Valet Mode for the Corvette, an enhancement to the Performance Data Recorder (PDR) already available and to your peace of mind. The PDR already captures 720p HD video with a windshield-mounted camera, records interior audio with a cabin microphone and gathers telemetry data using GPS, saving the data to an SD card in the glovebox. You can then watch your track-day antics with various information overlays on the center console screen.
Valet Mode will let you hit 'Replay' when your car gets pulled up front smelling vaguely of fricasseed clutch. Turned on by entering a four-digit code, it also locks the interior storage spaces and turns off the infotainment system. It can't be turned off until the code is re-entered. There's a press release below with more information as well as a video that explains how it works, with the obligatory dig at the 'Vette's biggest foe.

Use this PowerPoint when convincing your spouse to let you buy a Corvette

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

When you are not the one in charge of the purse strings, creativity is a must when trying to get the string-holder to bankroll that next shiny object you just can't live without.
When I was a kid, I decided that life wasn't worth living if it weren't in pursuit of owning a GMC Typhoon. My 12-year-old self crafted a fiscal strategy that, when combined with my offer of a 49-percent share of ownership in the car in return for my parents' contribution of 80-percent of the purchase price, would see me behind the wheel of a Typhoon by the time I hit college. They walked away from the negotiating table and, the economic climate of the 8th grade being what it was at the time, another partner wasn't found before the Typhoon was discontinued.
Roy El-Rayes, however, has succeeded where 12-year-old me failed, and he did it by using the sort of professionalism that only a PowerPoint presentation can provide, along with some humor and bold-faced flattery.

More Corvette Stingray Factoids: Vanishing panel gaps and 26-mpg LT1

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

During January's Detroit Auto Show, we managed a longer than expected wandering tag-team interview with C7 Corvette chief engineering exec Tadge Juechter (pictured above), and LT1 engine boss Jordan Lee (pictured below). They are, quite honestly, two of the very nicest bigshot lads to ever walk the engineering corridors of an American manufacturer. Both are enthralled by what they're doing for a day job. So are we.
We've followed the pre-sale anticipation for the Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray like an Oreck vacuum yanking every speck of dirt from a well-trampled carpet. Everything is reportable and contains a grain of further knowledge about this dramatically important and cheered-for car, as it continues to be pressured into representing all that is superior about the American dream. The Corvette wears one heavy cloak.
So, most of what was talked about has been expertly reported already right here on Autoblog. But, looking through our notes again, both Jeuchter and Lee added facts to the buzzing mix.
