Vehicle for sale:
This car needs lot of work - much rust. Mostly floor have rusted through in several areas - some worst than others.The rust consist to: small portion of the doors, (very small) quarters (small spots) fenders (left - has significant rust), floors inc. spare tire well (significant to major) and the tailgate (major rust, but can be saved). Any other areas would be minor and should be an easy fix. The moderate to serious area can be resolved with new sheet metal repair panels. The chassis in great condition and very much stock and unaltered. The car comes with the parts shown in the pictures. This vehicle has no motor or transmission. The brake, electrical and fuel systems are highly questionable and probably need replacing. The interior is extremely worn, though more of the trim molding are in good to fair condition.

This is a very desirable car - and it has tons of potential for a street custom rod (most rods replace floor for tub work or other various reasons) or restoration. As to describing the rust areas, I recommend a complete floor replacement, but someone can also patch the existing areas to save money. Dumb (good) metal can always be extended. Another plus, is the dash is very complete - very good point for anyone who'd like to restore vehicle. All the areas where the glass sets is extremely clean with no visible rust at all, with all molding in great shape This also includes the area at rear hatch at roof rails. Roof rail also are very solid. Every place which need addressing can be done so with new part for any 56 Chevy supplier such as Danchuk with no problems, except for the tailgate rust which any good metal tech can solve.

GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles
Fri, 04 Jan 2013As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
Scroll down for the full list of GM's million 30+ mpg cars as well as an informative press release.
Chevy Corvette gets Valet Mode with Performance Data Recorder [w/video]
Mon, 18 Aug 2014For 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.
Tarantino's stolen Chevy Malibu from Pulp Fiction recovered after 19 years [w/video]
Mon, 29 Apr 2013Quentin Tarantino fans will likely remember Vincent Vega's cherry 1964 Chevrolet Malibu Convertible in Pulp Fiction. In a movie drenched in automotive references, the Malibu is very nearly a character in and of itself, and it serves as the subject of Vega's soliloquy about the kind of man who vandalizes another's automobile. It also happened to be Tarantino's personal car when the film was shot, and was apparently stolen shortly after production wrapped. Now police have located the car some 19 years later.
As it turns out, the thieves cloned the vehicle identification number from another '64 Malibu and had the car registered under the new digits. It was then sold to an unsuspecting buyer. Police happened upon the duplicate VINs while investigating another potential theft. Right now, it's unclear whether Tarantino has taken possession of the Chevrolet, if it has remained in the possession of the fraud victim, or whether it's caught somewhere in the gears of justice. Either way, you can catch Vega's memorable thoughts on the car keying in the Pulp Fiction clip below. But consider yourself warned: the video contains explicit language as Not Safe For Work as it comes.
