 I am selling my 1988 Monte Carlo SS. I got this car last summer to work on and finish but ran into a speed bump when the windshield flew up while driving. This has custom chameleon paint, custom rebuilt engine and transmission. I have every receipt from everything that has been done to the car and the engine. This car is sweet and just needs a few more things to finish it. With a few finishing touches this thing will most likely push 400-450hp. It has multiple thousands of dollars put into it. 4 Speed 350 turbo tranny with a B&M pro ratchet shifter. Aftermarket Grant steering wheel. It has an aftermarket stereo in it that could use some rewiring. It is fast and fun but like I said the hood flew up while driving and did some damage. It is a true SS with a built 350. Has aftermarket cam, pistons, lifters, MSD ignition and much much more. The interior is in amazing shape. Has no a/c. It only has 2,753 since the engine rebuild. Fan is run off switch as well as ignition. Stock SS gears. Shorty headers with custom exhaust.  I did not rebuild this but bought it from the person who did. I do not have the time to finish her and I know with the right person she will be a great car!!

800k car names trademarked globally, suddenly alphanumerics seem reasonable

Tue, 01 Oct 2013

What'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.
