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 fair 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.

It has been brought to my attention that I missed to note the positive aspect of this project. This is a very desirable car - only 8,530 made in 55, 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 and complete. 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 55 Chevy supplier such as Danchuk with no problems, except for the tailgate rust which any good metal tech can solve.

Supercharged 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 takes the C7 beyond the ZR1
Mon, 13 Jan 2014
The Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
After a bright-yellow false start, here is the real thing: the fourth-generation, 2015 Corvette Z06. If Chevrolet makes a ZR1 version of the C7 Corvette, it's going to be absolutely mega, because the Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
New Chevrolet Silverado to be revealed on Facebook on Thursday
Tue, 11 Dec 2012There'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.
