I'm selling a beautiful 1959 Chevrolet Brookwood 2 door station wagon project car. I've been restoring this car for the last 4 months but am unable to continue doing any more because we will be relocating. I know I will regret selling this car because it's very rare and just so cool. There is so much potential with this car, it's unbelievable. There were only a couple thousand made. This was a Missouri car. It has a beautiful running 350 Chevy engine and automatic transmission out of a Nova. Not everything is hooked up. It has brand new dual exhaust with glass packs. It has a very nice set of Cooper radial tires (not new) but with plenty of tread. Excellent set of Cragar SS wheels. The rear end of the car needs to be rebuilt (but rolls)--I have another rear end out of another Brookwood for it that should be good--however, I was going to put a limited slip rear end in it but never got around to it. There is no drive shaft for it. The brakes need to be done. The shocks are bad. A lot of people end up putting airbag suspensions in these cars. I'm sure the front end is going to have to be gone through. Frame is excellent--straight and rust free. All the wiring will have to be hooked up. The body is 99% rust free. Has brand new back lower quarter panels (a prior owner cut the original panels out--not because of rust--but to make room for fat tires.) I put in all new floor pans. I have all the glass for it except for the rear passenger window. The glass is not perfect but decent. The seats are ok but should probably be reupholstered. Needs a headliner and interior door panels. The car is just in primer and it looks pretty cool just as it is, however, it is not totally ready for a fresh paint job. I pretty much have everything for it--missing one chrome strip for the front fender and the other one is dented. The rest of the chrome is decent--needs to be polished. Just keep in mind this is a project car and there is still plenty to do on it. There is no title. Have a VIN tag and can provide a bill of sale. Any questions please call Rob (218) 269-7592

2014 Chevrolet Corvette C7 Convertible offers a few more views before reveal
Mon, 04 Mar 2013Over the weekend, Chevrolet released its first images of the new 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Now, ahead of the droptop's official introduction tomorrow at the Geneva Motor Show, the automaker has given us a few more shots of the softop C7 showing off the car's rump albeit from a high, strategically positioned angle.
From this angle, it's hard to get a sense for how long and flat the decklid really is, but we can easily see that, like the rest of the C7's design, the new convertible's decklid and tonneau cover are far more detailed than the current car. We also get a better look at the rear haunches sans brake vents, which have apparently been moved to underneath the car in order to accommodate the top's hard cover.
As for the overall styling of the C7 convertible, with the top erected, we get some idea of what a coupe design (as opposed to the Stingray's fastback shape) would look like on this car. The C5 Corvette most recently had a coupe model that did away with the large glass hatchback, and we recently reported on a low-cost "coupe" model potentially being added to the C7's repertoire.
GM throttles back Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse production over swollen inventories
Wed, 06 Feb 2013As inventory of the Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse continues to pile up, General Motors will be idling its Fairfax Assembly Plant for two weeks, according to Automotive News. This move comes about a month after the plant was shut down for three weeks in late December and early January for the same reason. As of January 31, the GM had a 94-day supply of Malibu stock while the LaCrosse was a little worse with a 117-day supply.
Just last week, GM announced that it would be investing $600 million in upgrading this plant, but it's unclear what future plans the company has in store for Fairfax considering slow sales of both the plant's models. We do expect a refreshed and more luxurious LaCrosse shortly and an early design update for the Malibu to be announced at some point this year, although we have had no official word as to when either will happen.
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.
