1959 Chevy Bel Air 4 door. 283 V-8 with a powerglide transmission. The car has under 40k original miles and was a 1 family owned car before I bought it. The Bel Air was purchased at a local Chevy Dealership and spent most of its life in a garage in Camano Island Wa. I found and rescued the car this past winter about 10 miles from my home where it sat untouched for 8 years. The story i was told by the owner and also the niece of the original owner was that the car was given to her son 14 years ago as her son worked at a body shop and repainted the car at that time. Once the car was repainted he drove the car very little and then parked it in moms driveway while in college, covering the car with a cover for many years. Although his intentions were good, covering the car was not good on the great paint work he had done, as it has blistered in many places on the car. The Bel Air is very straight and all the trim and body lines are nice and has never had any collision work done. It also has rare power steering which makes it very easy to drive! The engine runs great and purrs at an idle, the trans shifts great but does have a small leak from the front seal? The interior has had the seats recovered and the door panels done as well and look great even though not in the original upholstery. The headliner is original and discolored and could be replaced as well as the windlace around the doors. The trunk area has some surface rust but is pretty solid, as well as the spare tire area. I have not removed the carpet to see the floors but they feel solid and see no rust holes under the car. Only one small crack in small window on passenger side back door, even the windshield is good. Please keep in mind that this an old car and will need some tinkering but does drive great and looks awesome going down the road! There is a cd player mounted under the dash and sounds good. The heater and heat controls all function good as well as all the windows and vents. All the lights and wipers work but the fuel and temp gauges do not. This is an honest car and in my opinion can be driven and enjoyed the way it is! The only reason for selling this car is because i just purchased a 59 impala convertible that i have been trying to buy for many many years. I am sure i left some things out so please feel free to ask any and all questions or send your name and # and we can talk.

Pushing Back: GM expanding Chevrolet into Korea, Daewoo out
Thu, 29 Apr 2010Chevrolet Camaro goes to South Korea - Click above for high-res image
General Motors decided several years ago to begin heavily promoting Chevrolet as its global mainstream brand even in markets where its existing brands like Opel and Daewoo were a dominant force. Today, at the Busan Motor Show in South Korea, GM Daewoo president Mike Arcamone announced that the Camaro would lead the way in GM's efforts to market Chevrolet in South Korea.
For now at least Chevrolet and Daewoo-branded vehicles will coexist in the Korean market. However, while we were in China last week GM officials told us that the Daewoo brand, which has been somewhat tainted by past quality issues, would eventually be phased out in favor of Chevrolet. When the new Aveo launches next year it will likely be badged as a Chevrolet even though GM Daewoo is in charge of engineering the car.
2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel destined for Chicago debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.
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.
