This is a really nice and solid 1956 Chevy BelAir 2 door sedan. Someone started the restoration on this car and ran out of money and room to finish it. The car has been completely stripped to bare metal, new rockers put on, new lower front quarter sections, body work done and put in DuPont hot rod black primer sealer. What's nice about the primer sealer is if you like the old school gasser look or the rat rod look you can just leave it. Or about 90% of the body work has been completed and just needs final blocking and prep to paint it the color of your choice. All the body work was done by a professional restoration shop and I can provide a detailed invoice of all the work completed to this point ($5,700.00 alone) and then there is the price of the small block and 4 speed, and then the value of a very solid 2 door BelAir. The reserve is more than fair and reasonable just to move it to a good home where the car will be finished and appreciated.
Under the hood has all been done in chassis black and a small block Chevy and 4 speed has been installed. I don't know anything about the motor and trans other than that but it looks really good under the hood and looks like what is there would be good to go and just needs to be finished. The motor turns over good.
The car has the very desirable and rare "California" one piece frame that is 100% rust free and stock and unmolested.
The dash in the car is perfect and unmolested. The car comes with a real nice correct front and back seat for recovering. The floors and the trunk are real solid and are what I would say are as rust free as you will ever see. The rear tail pan does have a hole about the size of a silver dollar on each end and the inner rocker have a couple holes on each side, nothing that would need replacing just some patch work would do the trick and on the inner rockers someone has cut out the bad areas and started making the patch panels and I will include them. The floors on the car are excellent but the floor braces do have some rot in them but included with the sale of the car is brand new floor braces, just drill out the spot welds and tack the new one's in, a real simple job and cheap since it comes with $400.00 in new braces.
The vin tag and trim tack are in there original location and have never been tampered with and I have a clear title in my name.
I have a very good friend who is a car shipper that I have used on several occasions without any trouble at all and I can arrange and setup shipping anywhere in the country at a very reasonable cost. (your cost)
What we have is a very desirable and rare TRUE BelAir 2 door with the one piece "California" frame that someone started the restoration and just lost interest and ran out of money and room. All the hard and expensive work has been done and it wouldn't take much time or money to finish it. This could be on the road and ready for this summer really easy without out a lot of time or money.
If you have any questions or would like anymore information please feel free to ask? Thank you.

GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech
Tue, 24 Dec 2013The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.
Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism
Mon, 07 Jan 2013Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.
