1953 5-window Chevy Pickup- Rust Free So. Ca Survivor!! on 2040-cars
Brooklyn, Connecticut, United States
|
We have here a great little rust free survivor just shipped in from Southern California. This is a rare 5 window model 3600 with the original 235 CU motor and 4 speed tranny on the floor. Vehicle starts right up and runs awesome. Rust free with only light surface or "patina". Bed appears to be either custom built or factory option and is real nice. Underside as clean as the top. Starts first time every time. Use on the farm, as a rat rod or find a cheap bed and restore, either way this is a great place to start with a rust free 5 window! Owner who shipped it in, could not do a stick shift, due to a bad back. His loss is your gain!.
There are a couple cracks in a couple of the original windows, but they are all flat glass and an easy fix. Needs headliner and side panels but as a kit they sell for around $35.00. Dash is clean and un-cut. Everything works as it should, right down to the horn and lights etc., so bid to win and have fun! Please Note that if you have less than 5 positive feedbacks, you must contact me prior to bidding or I will cancel your bid. Sorry, but too many jerks out there ruining auctions. This stuff costs money and I have no time to play. Vehicle should be shipped, due to it's age but that is your call and responsibility. I will be happy to help load up etc., and could deliver within a 100 mile radius for fuel costs. International buyers are welcome but please have your shipping details prior to bidding because I do not want to wait weeks for you to make arrangements. MY mind reading skills are very poor, so please ask questions. I will answer them all and gladly have a phone conversation, if you send me your number. Thanks for looking and good luck with this great little truck! Vehicle is sold with a clear California title and CT Bill of Sale. Pay Pal will gladly be accepted but buyer will be responsible for the eBay fees, which run about 3%. I just can't absorb them, sorry. |

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.
PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]
Wed, 19 Jun 2013PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
