UNMOLESTED 1957 Chevrolet 4 door post Bel Air - Original - GREAT BARN FIND

This 1957 Chevrolet 4 door post Bel Air, is now up for sale. It has been in the Garage most of the time since 1973

a Daily driver prior to that. Has been undriven and stored for 40 years. I bought this car due to the fact of how solid it is.

This is a dry climate Bel Air and it shows. It is a total project and needs everything under the sun, but

you've got a great base to start.

It is originally a 283 V8 small block with three speed transmission on the column. (Three on the tree)

This is a Dallas Texas car originally sold at Vandergriff Chevrolet.

The Mechanic's:

It does come with the original 283 motor that I pulled from the car. Needs rebuilding. Does not run. Comes with the car.

I have three speed transmission that I got with the car. It was already removed.

The only damage to the car is before I got it, someone cut the floor for a floor shifter (in the tunnel)

and a small dent in right rear quarter, by the bumper, both are an easy repair, and a small scrape under the rear passenger

door on the rocker molding. ( see pictures )

I did replace all ball joints in the front end as well as all the "A" frame bushings. This is the only work I have done.

I believe to have all the car except the radiator, Dome lens, one hub cap, and a headlight. ( this is all I can remember not having )

The Body:

Originally a Black painted car with a white painted top all patina is original. Also original Red and black interior.

The carpet is gone. The original floors and trunk pan are intact throughout. Drivers Floor pan has worst corrosion.

(see Pictures with a bolt) Spare Tire sump in the trunk has rust ( see pictures ) the rust u see in the trunk corners

is not in the metal, just crumbs on top, easy vacuum clean.

The glass is also original and intact throughout. But Two windows are Cracked, Driver Passenger door, and Passenger Front door. Still

intact just cracked not shattered.

All of the glass rides on its window tracks. Roll up and down, Vent windows roll as well. The doors, hood and trunk line up straight.

The title for the car is a small green title last transferred March of 1966.

These pictures were taken a couple weeks back when I pulled it from the barn to get more light for the pictures to take well,

and to get good pictures under the car as well as of the car. I did put it back in the barn. where it has been.

Way to much to list, call if interested for more details.

Are you the 2014 Corvette Grand Sport?

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

When are stripes more than just stripes? Follow up question: Is the product development team at Chevrolet really cocky enough to hide the next C7 Corvette variant in plain sight? This very recently spotted, and ostensibly obscured C7 asks a lot more questions than it answers, but there's at least some evidence to support that it might be the next Corvette Grand Sport.
The first and most obvious tip-off that something is up with this 'Vette revolves around those silver stripes. Obviously the stripes themselves don't necessarily denote a new model. However, when Chevy recently launched its "colorizer" website for the Stingray, there was no provision made for racing stripes - solid colors only.
Grand Sport exhibit number two is actually an incriminating lack of badges. The production Corvettes we've seen to date have all carried Stingray badges on their fenders, just behind the vent. The car seen in these images has no such badges, which is an intriguing omission on an car that looks like a production-spec vehicle otherwise.

GM takes heat for aborted Silverado riff on 'Boston Strong' at World Series

Thu, 31 Oct 2013

During game five of the World Series, Chevrolet was set to do a spot of marketing for the 2014 Silverado - fans at Busch Stadium in St. Louis would hold up placards that spelled out the words "Silverado Strong," a theme that Chevy has been promoting since the Silverado's launch with the song "Strong," by Will Hoge. The St. Louis promo was ultimately called off, though, over concerns that it'd be insensitive to the visiting Boston Red Sox. (You can see the image of what the stunt would have looked like above, courtesy of one timely Reddit user.)
Now, the Busch Stadium stunt might not have been a big deal, had the St. Louis Cardinals not been playing the Boston Red Sox. Following the tragic events in Boston during the marathon back in April, the phrase "Boston Strong" gained traction among the city's citizens, especially at sporting events. So, you can imagine that Chevy's appropriation of the phrase might not sit well with some fans.
The stunt was ultimately shelved after images of the signs went viral before the game, leading to a bit of a public backlash. Chevy spokesperson Michael Albano said of the promo that it was meant to show the brand's "commitment to baseball and its fans." But after the images went viral, the company "realized there was the possibility that we may offend some of the very fans we were trying to honor," Albano told Automotive News via email.

New Chevrolet Silverado to be revealed on Facebook on Thursday

Tue, 11 Dec 2012

There's not much to see here, but if you're one of those waiting for the reveal of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, above is the teaser image that Chevrolet posted on its Facebook page. We've seen the truck in form-fitting camo before, and even less can be made out here beyond those seriously punchy Silverado-esque fenders and the knowledge that the projector-beam headlamps teased previously do indeed work. We'll have to wait until Thursday for a full perusal of the "bold exterior design" and "careful attention given to every detail" we've been promised.
Gathering intel and rumors, magnesium and aluminum contribute to the Silverado's weight loss plan, the purported "High Country" top-tier trim will contribute to luxury pickup truck competition and profit margins and the next-generation small-block V8 will contribute to improved fuel economy. On the engine note, there have been rumors of available V6 engines, and when Facebook user John Jones asked "Where's your answer to that EcoBoost Chevy?", the Bowtie replied "stay tuned on the 13th. We think you'll be pleased...".
Along with the "Raise the Bar" tag, Chevrolet says of the Silverado, "You asked, we delivered." You can watch the reveal live on Chevrolet's Facebook page at 9:30 am EST, this Thursday, December 13. The GMC Sierra 1500 will also be there, and we'll see both in person at the Detroit Auto Show in January.
