Here is a really cool truck!!! It is a 1952 Chevrolet Advanced Design 3100 half ton. It is mainly original with a few mods. The engine has been upgraded to a 235 stovebolt with an external oil filter; the rear end has been upgraded to a 10 bolt open drive with 5 lug wheels all around; power disc brakes on the front with a modern two stage master cylinder; electric is 12 volt; wipers are electric instead of vacuum; turn signals have been installed; new front shocks. Tires are nearly new and all match with a set of rally wheels. The body is in good condition and is original, no cuts or mods. Interior is in great shape and is original as well. The bed floor is decent, but not original. Glass is good. What it needs: transmission leaks at rear seal if parked on an incline. Parking brake does not work. Rally center caps are pitted. Heater core leaks and has been bypassed. That's about it. It also comes with an original Fulton sunvisor. I used to carry this truck in an enclosed trailer behind my motorhome, but my wife wanted a newer car instead. It has been a great vehicle and always gets looks and "thumbs up" wherever we go. Delivery may be an option if our travels match your needs, please inquire if you may need transport. I will also assist in a commercial transporter picking up the truck. It is located in northern Alabama. $500 deposit within 48 hours, balance within 5 days of auction close. Please email any questions, I will try to post more pics asap. Thanks and Good Luck!!

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues
Wed, 28 Dec 2011'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
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.
Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]
Fri, 25 Jan 2013The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?
