1959 Chevrolet Brookwood Wagon Show Hot Rat Rod Original Pro Touring Air Ride on 2040-cars
Smyrna, Tennessee, United States
For Sale By:Dealer
Engine:283
Drive Type: 2WD
Make: Chevrolet
Mileage: 100,001
Model: Impala
Trim: Brookwood
This is a very solid Brookwood that is ready to go. It appears to be wearing its evenly weathered original paint and the trim is all there. There is not a much cooler wagon than the 59-60 Chevrolets! This one has had a professionally installed air ride system from Ride Tech installed. It consists of a 4 gallon pancake tank, Viair 480, valves and gauges that have all been hidden with the exception of the control panel for that killer stance. It also sports a set of staggered Billet Specialties with 18x8'' fronts and 20x10'' rears. The 10'' rear looks killer! This wagon has also been treated to one of our full custom interiors as you can see. Everything was completely gutted and removed for cleaning and all panels were replaced with custom fitted ABS panels. They were then wrapped with custom sewn panels made from some of the best vinyls that feel like leather, but hold up and wear better than leather. All of the metal trim in the interior was also color matched and painted for that contemporary look that is so popular right now. All of the electrical has been gone through and checked and is in working order as it should be. The drive train consists of a 283 3speed on the column that is matching to the car from what we can tell. It had a little rust in the pans on the driver side (have pictures) and we replaced them with new ones so that the floors are super solid. We have the panel for the rust in the rear quarter but we chose not to replace it at this time so that we wouldn’t harm the original patina. We can install this if the new owner chooses. This is a great car to continue restoring while you drive for a show car, or leave as is for a great looking updated original. Give us a call and come and see it for yourself! If you're unable, feel free to have someone inspect it for you. Call Brian @ 615-220-9000 for any further details. This is an auction style listing so please don't contact me for the reserve. Bid to own it.1959 Chevrolet Brookwood Wagon

Why the Corvette is Chevrolet's billion-dollar baby
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Edmunds has worked up a piece that tries to figure out just how much the global Chevrolet Corvette economy is worth, a spitballed guesstimate putting the number at more than $2.5 billion with the proviso that the number is probably low. It starts by taking Corvette's new car sales of 14,132 units last year, which would equate to $714,725,900 (including destination) assuming ever car sold was a base coupe with no options. In the final tally, a little extra padding gets that number up to $750,000,000.
But that's not all. Consider this: Many of the almost 1.4 million Corvettes produced over the model's history are still on the road. There are new parts being produced and aftermarket companies like Mid-America Motorworks deaing business, that single Illinois company doing more than $40 million a year in sales. There are the Corvette events large and small, restorers who do nothing but Corvettes, salvage yards that deal only in used Corvette parts and the Corvette magazines where owners find all this stuff.
And then there are the Corvette-themed tchotchkes, every single one of which provides a tiny contribution to the huge licensing royalties that General Motors collects every year. The article admits there's no way to come to an accurate number, but it just goes to show how valuable one specific model can be to a company.
Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels
Thu, 24 Jan 2013The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.
Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard
Tue, 19 Mar 2013Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.
