Year:1959
Mileage:61299
Location:
Jonesville, Michigan, United States
Before I
begin, I would encourage all serious buyers to contact me directly at 1-517-990-2646
with any questions or concerns. This
auction is for a 1959 Chevrolet Belair 2-door 1 family owned since new. I apologize
in advance for the long winded story but this car deserves it. 1959 is said by
some to be the best year, for
the second time in as many years, Chevrolet again came up with a totally new
car. From the front or rear the 1959 Chevrolets resembled nothing else on the
road. From the headlights, placed as low as the law would allow, to the
cats-eye tail lights, the 1959 Chevrolet was a brand new car with all new sheet
metal, a new frame, and even new series names. The most visual new change was
the flat, wing shaped tailfins. The
'59 Chevy was the last car that Harley Earl designed for GM before retiring,
and his flamboyant style was very evident. It’s
in great condition throughout! All the
mechanics work properly, looks great and is fun to drive!
This very rare 59 Belair is in nice original condition everywhere you
look with only 1 re-paint to the original color. This car is a one family owned
car I bought it from the niece of the original owner we have a folder full of documentation
of ownership including the original title in his name. ‘59 model year and is a
very rare to find one for sale, let alone one that is in the original condition
this one is, this car may be the one you can own at a great price. This car is
a rare find with being one family owned since new with docs and the fact that
it is all original with only one repaint and a new headliner. The miles on the
odometer show 61,299 and are original to the car. The engine bay is original,
when the car was passed down in 2005 the motor was completely rebuilt we have
the receipts also, the paint was also done at that time, still looks nice but
not perfect, they added power steering for ease of driving there were older at
this time also, every piece of chrome and stainless is very nice with the exception
of the bumpers they had them painted with a special chrome paint and they said
it looked good at the time but after almost 10 years they need to be re-chromed.
Turn over the 283 V-8 engine and quite rumble from the exhausts hits a sweet
tune. Driving it, you will appreciate the ride and handling characteristics.
The optional 2-speed auto transmission shifts smoothly, the power brakes stop
the car quickly and securely. It’s is a blast to drive!
The body is in nice condition. The metal is clean and straight with no
signs of damage. We have pictures of the car in 2005 before any work was done;
it still was all original everywhere but the tires. All the glass is in great
shape with no chips or cracks. The original bias-ply spare tire and all the jack assembly is all there,
the original paint under the deck lid and original jack instructions are still
there with the original trunk mat. The underside is
very solid the original owner had the car rust proofed new and then had it done
a couple more times over the years just to make sure the car would last.
Overall this is a rare
opportunity to own a true piece of American history of the automobile industry,
how many 59 Belair’s do you see at your local or national events across the
country? I welcome overseas buyers please feel free to call me at 517-990-2646.

Callaway showed off its first tuned version of the 2014 Corvette Stingray at the National Corvette Museum last week, giving the rampant enthusiasts of America's sports car a look at the roughly 620-horsepower, supercharged rocket.
Unlike the Corvette SC610 we showed you back in January, this Stingray packs a fair bit more oomph. Horsepower is only up ten ponies, but torque has jumped from 556 pound-feet to "at least" 600 pound-feet. Neither horsepower nor torque is official quite yet, although Callaway is expecting to know just what its creation can do once testing and validation is completed later this month.
The 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 now boasts a new, three-element intercooler, which Callaway claims only allowed the inlet air temperature to increase by ten degrees Fahrenheit during dyno runs. Previous designs saw a 35-degree-Fahrenheit jump. The exhaust system has also been fettled with, and now is even less restrictive.

The next Chevrolet Cruze isn't set to go into production for about another year, and we're just now seeing prototypes of the new compact running around here in the States. Not much more has been revealed since we saw the car blasting through the snow in Europe, but we can still clearly see new design elements like the larger grille, slimmer headlamps and redesigned taillamps.
Our spy photographers worked up a composite image of this Cruze prototype alongside the current model, and here, we can clearly see some big visual changes are in store for the new model. The 2015 Cruze's hood slopes downward more dramatically, the windshield is more heavily raked, and the roofline looks more fluid overall. The next-generation Cruze will ride on the new global Delta platform that will also underpin other General Motors vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt and Equinox.
As for what's under the hood, we expect the normal range of gasoline four-cylinder engines (both naturally aspirated and turbocharged), and the compact's new turbodiesel four should carry over, as well. Have a look at the full brace of spy photos in the gallery above.

Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
