                                                                         52,000 original Miles!!
Selling my awesome 1950 5 Window pickup. Truck is a real 3100 series half ton with the rare and desirable 5-Windows. These trucks are harder and harder to find in this condition with 5 windows. The truck is pretty much all original with no alterations, cutting, or bondo etc. Was a 1 owner that was well taken care of and maintained. This is pretty much a rust free vehicle that is very solid. Looks like a couple paint jobs over the years but no rust through spots anywhere, just surface underneath, yet still solid and some on the running boards,(which have replacements), and a couple nicks etc., that you would expect. I would call it a "5 Footer". 

 Truck is still equipped with it's original motor (216-hp),and drive train, which operate flawlessly, and the exhaust is new stainless from motor, all the way back. Shocks were also replaced. Brakes were checked and are fine. Replaced the water pump and rebuilt the generator as well as putting some tires on. Included with the truck will be a brand new set of running boards and a bed kit with stainless strips, still in boxes. (close to 2K in parts). Presently, there is a metal plate in the bed that works fine for now.

 This truck is super solid, virtually rust free and un-touched. Your call whether to keep it so original or hot rod it. You will not find a better one in this part of the country and actually if it was a southern or western truck you would not know, due to the lack of rust. Floors are solid. Only thing I can see changed was the foot starter was replaced with a much more user friendly ignition switch on the dash. Naturally, a vehicle this old is sold as is with no warranty.

  Please note that the great State of CT does not issue tiles for vehicles this old, as is the case with most states. You will receive a CT Bill of Sale and a copy of the present registration. Please check with your DMV before bidding. Will sell to and ship anywhere but buyer is responsible for payment. I will gladly help load etc., but do not want to be held up with international shippers. (I checked "clear" for title, because you are forced to list one of eBay's categories, since there is no option for "none".) Will accept Pay Pal for deposit but if you want to pay for the truck using Pay Pal, I need to pass their fees unto you as I can not afford to absorb them, sorry. Vehicle is listed for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time should it sell.

 If you have less than 5 positive feedbacks, you need to make contact prior to bidding or I will cancel the bid, as I have had too many less than honorable jerks ruining auctions, sorry. 

 I will answer all questions and if you want a phone conversation shoot me a phone number. Good Luck bidding on this great old Truck!!

Audi S4 drivers are the most accident-prone, insurance report says

Sun, Jun 25 2023

Culling data from more than 4.6 million automobile insurance applications, researchers at the Insurify insurance comparison marketplace picked a winner — or more to the point, a loser — in its determination of the car model with the most accidents so far in 2023: the Audi S4. Why does the sporty, luxury-class German sedan rank so high (or so low)? The organization found that S4 drivers, piloting a car with almost 350 horsepower, are among those who collect the most speeding tickets, and that they get into accidents at a rate 54 percent higher than the national average. If the S4 isnÂ’t a surprise with an at-fault accident rate of 11.7 percent, consider the “family friendly” brand that appears three times on the Insurity list: Subaru. It is represented by three models, including the turbocharged WRX and XV Crosstrek, and at the better-performing bottom of the list, the Subaru Impreza, with an accident rate of 10.3 percent.  In 2023, 7.6 percent of U.S. drivers were involved in at least one at-fault accident in the prior seven years. For drivers of cars on this list, the average at-fault accident rate was 10.5 percent, meaning these drivers are 1.4 times as likely to have an at-fault accident on record. According to its statement, the Insurity data science team explored key safety features, driver behavior, and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) evaluations to pinpoint possible reasons behind these carsÂ’ high accident rates. Following is the list, counting down to the models with most reported accidents: 10. Subaru Impreza (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.3 percent; MSRP base model): $19,795) 9. Kia Niro (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.4 percent; MSRP base model): $26,590) 8. Chevrolet Silverado LD (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.4%, MSRP base model): $34,500) 7. Subaru XV Crosstrek (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.5 percent, MSRP 6. Subaru WRX.(percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.7% MSRP base model): $29,605) 5. Toyota GR86 (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.8 percent MSRP base model): $29,900) 4. Hyundai Veloster N (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.9 percent; MSRP base model): $32,500) 3.

Weekly Recap: Geneva's splendor reflects growing demand for ultra-luxury cars

Sat, Mar 7 2015

Geneva is one of the most glittering auto shows in the world, but the list of high-powered and bespoke luxury cars was decadent this year even by the rich standards of the Swiss exhibition. It's great for enthusiasts to revel in the flame-throwing Aston Martin Vulcan, the racing-inspired elegance of the Bentley EXP 10 Speed 6 concept and the insane performance of the Lamborghini Aventador LP 750-4 Superveloce, but there's a reason for all of this opulence: the luxury market is big business. And it's growing. IHS Automotive forecasts that so-called ultra-premium sales will nearly triple this decade from 123,000 to 353,000 units around the world. The estimate includes brands like Aston Martin, Bentley, Ferrari and Rolls-Royce, but doesn't count BMW, Mercedes and Audi, which offer less expensive models in addition to their high-end flagships. Though IHS includes Porsche and its relatively large volume in the study, the ultra-premium segment is still set grow at about the same rate, even without the German automaker's figures. So what is propelling all of this growth in the most expensive segment of the auto industry? Put simply, there's more rich people. IHS Automotive principal analyst Tim Urquhart pointed to economic expansion in China, market recovery in the United States and a surge in the lucrative technology sector as contributing factors. This dovetails with a research report by UK-based Oxfam, an international relief organization, which found the world's richest one-percent owned 48 percent of global wealth in 2014, and it's expected to increase to more than 50 percent by 2016. View 17 Photos Carmakers are moving quickly to capitalize with new products, expanding their portfolios with low-volume speedsters like the 800-hp V12 Vulcan at Geneva, and plans to enter new segments, like Rolls-Royce's strategy to make an SUV. "Ultra-premium carmakers are looking to explore ways of growing their product offerings, and thus their bottom lines, in this most potentially profitable of segments," Urquhart wrote in a report on the Geneva show. In a nutshell, there are more choices for people with more money. It's a good time to have expensive taste. Other News & Notes 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata production launches It won't be long now.
