Selling my 1968 Chevrolet Caprice. Rebuilt 396 with a Comp Cams 280h, domed pistons and 049 open chamber heads. Rebuilt th400 transmission. Holley 770 carburetor. Has an original corvette open element air cleaner and new chrome gm style valve covers with oil drippers. Headman headers and new dual exhaust with v - force mufflers. Runs great and sounds even better. The cam sounds great. Has a newer replacement 4 core radiator and has the correct original big block fan shroud as well as the correct big block power steering and alternator. Car has a new vinyl top, headliner, carpet and package tray. The front bucket seats were redone with new reproduction covers and foam. The rear seat is original. The front and rear glass were removed and resealed and the top of the dash was also repainted. The console is in very nice condition. The deluxe Seatbelts were cleaned and a nice front set were put together. The rear belts are in the car but some of the buckle hardware needs some attn. Car has brand new 20" boss 338 wheels. 9" in the front and 10" in the back and nice new tires. Suspension is stock with cut coil springs and lowered shocks so could be returned to stock height easily. Brakes work great and all the turn signals, brake lights, reverse lights and marker lights work. I don't have any front door panels but do have the other rear panel but it is in poor condition. The dash is overall pretty nice but the pad does have a crack in it. I reset the odometer to zero when I put the car together and it now reads approximately 200 miles. Car does have the usual light rust in the quarters which I posted in the pictures. The body mounts in the trunk are also in need of some help, also pictured. This car overall is a great car with some cool options and awesome patina. Is a great cruiser that gets tons of attention and has all the hard expensive work done.

800k car names trademarked globally, suddenly alphanumerics seem reasonable
Tue, 01 Oct 2013What's in a name? This cliched phrase probably gets tossed out at every marketing meeting that happens when a new car gets its nomenclature. We know the answer, though: everything. The name of a car has all the potential to make or break it with fickle customers that are more conscious than ever about what their purchases say about them.
That's giving headaches to marketing folks across the automotive industry. "It's tough. In 1985 there were about 75,000 names trademarked in the automotive space. Today there are 800,000," Chevrolet's head of marketing, Russ Clark, told Automotive News. Infiniti's president, Johan de Nysschen, echoed Clark's sentiment, saying, "The truth of the matter is, across the world, there is hardly a name or a letter that hasn't already been claimed by one car manufacturer or another. You can go through the alphabet - A, B, C and so forth - and you will quickly see that almost all available letters are taken."
What has that left automakers to do? Get creative. In the case of Infiniti, it made the controversial move to bring all of its cars' names into a new scheme, classifying them as Q#0 for cars and QX#0 for SUVs and crossovers. So the Infiniti G, which was available as the G25 and G37, is now the Q50. The FX37 and FX50 are now the QX70.
Why Cadillac thinks it needs to succeed in Europe to sell cars elsewhere
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Ward's Auto has taken an interesting look at the renewed focus General Motors is showing towards Cadillac in Europe. Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe (pictured), says in order for the luxury brand to thrive in China, it first needs to succeed in the old country. The reason? Chinese buyers look to Europe for cues as to what's deemed worthy of the term "luxury." There are hurdles to the plan, however. In addition to the fact that the EU is flooded with high-end nameplates, GM doesn't necessarily have the distribution network in place to put buyers behind the wheel.
Combine that with persistent economic woes and Cadillac's checkered past marred by a lack of diesel engine options and a bankrupt distributor, and the road ahead for the brand looks like less of an uphill climb and more like a straight-up cliff face. But Docherty is optimistic and says she has a plan for the brand. We recommend heading over to Ward's for a closer look at the full read.
