Up for auction is my 1956 Chevrolet Nomad. I've owned the car for over 5 years now and took it from a primered hulk to a nice cruising machine. It's an original power pack car (265, 4bbl, dual exhaust) that was Turquoise and White. Excellent condition, runs and drives great.
What's new: Vintage Heat/AC, PDB, 3.55 posi rear, suspension (rear leafs and shackles, front springs, ball joints, front sway bar) lowered 2" all around, detailed undercarriage with red oxide primer floors, 17x7 AR Salt Flat wheel/tire combo, lots of new chrome (way too much to list), liftgate professionally straightened and the torsion bars in the roof removed/gas struts installed to prevent future bowing, new windshield, door vents, and door glass. Padded dash, new dash trim, Raingear electric wipers/washer, Kick panel and rear seat speakers connected to an AM/FM/Ipod ready radio. Engine is now a SBC 350/TH350 combo (stock except the intake), Edelbrock triple-98 setup, March Polished Front Runner serpentine system, Pertronix Ignitor, 1 wire alternator, 4-core Desert Cooler radiator, electric fan, 2.5" Corvette Rams horns with a Flowmaster exhaust system and stainless tips, 58 Impala steering wheel, and an Ididit tilt shift column. Tons of new parts, and all receipts. A nice cruising Nomad and a multiple first place winner that's driven regularly. Not a trailer queen, as I drive it regularly. Clear TX title with no issues. Multiple first place wins last year including the Autorama in Houston.
The car is sold as-is, where-is, with no warranty expressed nor implied. Call me to discuss my Nomad and I'll be more than happy to answer any questions you may have. (281)-660-6069 I'd consider trades for a C1 or C2 Corvette convertible, 68-69 Charger R/T, or an A12 as that's the only reason for the sale is to fund the next dream car. I've had my fun with it, now it's someone elses turn! I don't mind selling to overseas buyers and can help with delivery to the docks here in Houston, but the funds must clear my account before the vehicle leaves.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
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.
