For Sale:  1952 Chevrolet 3-window 3/4T Long Bed Pick Up truck, (8) lug hubs, 16" steel wheels, heavy duty springs. 

Description:  Our truck is a CLEAN, Excellent running, driving, road worthy truck that was purchased as a "display" truck for my welding business.  The truck is virtually rust free, and when I say rust free, I don't mean the surface rust.  She has plenty of that, but the floor boards, kick panels, rocker panels, cab bottoms, floor, fender wells and the bed itself are beautiful.  She does have some rust-through surface(s) where the upper rear part of the front fenders meet the interior kick panels on the cab, but this is minor and not bad at all.  The pictures in this listing of our truck ARE the pictures of the truck that you will be purchasing.  This truck has a 12-volt battery but the truck itself has not been formally converted to a 12 volt system.  All physical dash indications in the truck work perfectly.  The truck shifts great, starts right up and runs like it's purring.  It could be put to work immediately as is, or restored.  This is really a nice, solid truck.  She was purchased for a promotional vehicle for my welding business, but I get enough referrals via word of mouth, and we really need to purchase a tractor, so the truck is being sold. 

Condition:  The truck has obviously had some bumps and scrapes along it's life.  The driver's front fender was hit and poorly repaired at one time.  The passenger side rear fender had a chain come loose in the snow and damaged the right rear fender at the rear lip as shown.  None of this minor damage described is unrepairable.  The rear bed is complete as it was original, but it is all under a sheet of 3/32" steel that was placed in the bed at some point during the truck's life down here in Texas, (see pics.).  The glass is all there, but it's not all good.  Most of it will have to be replaced.  It's chipped, it's cracked, and it's pitted.  The rubber gaskets around all the glass are virtually crusted completely hard and are unserviceable.  The doors open and close without any sag whatsoever.  I have removed all the old cracked-up upolstry to preserve the seat springs, which are in excellent condition.  The windshield wipers work intermittantly.  The wiring is all original; but she uses a push-button starter switch taped to the steering column to facilitate the starter action on the newer 235 engine.  She has just had a coolant flush, and a fresh oil & oil filter change.

New Parts:  New keys, ignition, locks, Battery, battery cables, positive and negative, fuel pump, fuel tank, fuel cap, fuel line, fuel filter, & oil filter.

Extras:  The was ordered with the radio blank, turn signals, windshield wipers, and a heater.  All of these items are installed and/or functioning in the truck.  The truck will have a complete spare '52 grill assembly that goes with it, a full size mounted and balanced 16" rim and tire, as shown in the bed.  I also have a 4-cross lug wrench and jack that will go with the truck.  The truck has had a professionally welded/extended 12-Volt Battery tray fabricated to use the existing holes for the original, (smaller), battery box in the frame under the passenger side floor board.  The 12V battery itself sits below the original floor board access panel, clearly visitable in the pictures, just like the stock 6 volt battery did.  You can easilly pull the 12V battery up through the floor for removal.  I do have the stock OEM radio blank plate that goes into the dash, which does go with the truck.  I also have a spare door glass that is packaged for shipment.

I will provide DETAILED pictures of any part of the car you wish, before you purchase and/or make an offer, if you're not seeing what you need to see in the pics I have posted.  I will answer any questions completely, before you make your offer and/or purchase.  Please do not hesitate to email me through the E-bay matrix, or simply speed it up by calling:  (254) 368-7399. If you do not want your question posted to the listing, please let me know that in your contact and your contact will be kept private.  Thank you for your interest and best of luck to all interested parties.  The truck IS for sale locally here in Central Texas, Killeen 76548.  The truck is located 55 minutes NNE of Austin City Central, 50 minutes SSW of Waco, TX and 2.5 hours NNE of San Antonio, 4.0 hours NNW of Houston, and 4.0 hours SSW of Dallas, TX.

Danica Patrick hands over keys to first 2016 Chevy Camaro

Mon, Nov 9 2015

When he headed from Kansas to northern Texas to take delivery, he was pleasantly surprised to see Danica climb out of the car to hand him the keys. Though she may have raced under Honda power during her IndyCar days, Danica's NASCAR stock cars have always been powered by Chevrolet. She even drove a Camaro in the Nationwide Series. The smile on Turk's face ought to last him the nearly five-hour drive home to Wichita. For everyone else, deliveries are set to commence in earnest in the middle of this month. The first models to be delivered will be V6 coupes. Convertibles and turbo-four models will start shipping early in the new year. Customers will be able to choose between six powertrain combinations, made up of the 2.0-liter turbo four, the 3.6-liter V6, and the 6.2-liter V8, each available with a six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic. Pricing starts at $26,695 for the base 1LT trim and extends up to $37,295 for the 1SS.

"This whole experience was surreal," Boyacioglu said.

Camaro driver clocked at 171 miles per hour

Wed, Apr 13 2016

Chevy's 2016 Camaro SS is a fantastic piece of automotive engineering. It is also, apparently, very, very fast. This latter fact was perfectly illustrated when, on April 8, a Camaro SS driver was nailed in Two Harbors, Minnesota for doing 171 mph. According to WFAA, the unnamed speed demon was flying down Highway 61 near Two Harbors when Hermantown, MN Deputy Police Chief Shawn Padden clocked him at an eye-watering 171 mph. He then recorded the speeder at 168 and 141. At the time, Deputy Chief Padden was working with Minnesota State Patrol on an anti-DWI program called "Toward Zero Deaths". Padden, who was interviewed by the Duluth News Tribune, said he was surprised at the driver's sheer speed. "When he went by me, it was a blur," Padden told the News. "You get used to seeing people going 65 or 70 and what that looks like. But I've never seen anything like this. It's like a rocket on wheels." Fadden chased the Camaro down eventually, but it took some doing. To catch the Camaro, he pushed his Dodge Charger Pursuit to 135 mph just to get into range so the Camaro could see his emergency lights. The speeding driver was ticketed for careless driving, but may lose his license due to a Minnesota law that gives courts the option of revoking licenses for drivers caught doing more than 100 mph.

Porsche 911 tops a list of must-have classics, but No. 2 is more of a surprise

Wed, Aug 9 2023

No surprise here: In Europe, the Porsche 911 is the most sought-after classic car. Surprise here: Slip-streaming the 911 in the most sought-after chart compiled by the Car & Classic marketplace is the Ford Mustang. Using the Google search engine as a means to pick the winners, as well as the average prices achieved on the “Car and Classic” website, the venerable 911 was tagged 1.45 million times per month according to data stretching back 15 years. The number of 911Â’s sold though the C&C marketplace was 21,141, at an average price of 58,409 pounds, or $74,300. FordÂ’s pony car, still a popular choice for buyers in Europe, placed second on the list with 1.2 million monthly searches. The average sales price over 15 years was 31,107 pounds ($39,570), and the number of older Mustangs sold reached a total of 8,332. Models that also finished among the charted top 10 include the Land Rover Range Rover, the Corvette, the ultra-classic British favorite Jaguar E-Type and the BMW 3 Series. “Whilst a 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 RS could set you back the best part of GBP500,000 ($636,000), there are many more affordable models, which bring the average sale price of a 911 on Car & Classic to GBP58,000 ($73,800) – the third highest average selling price of any make and model on the site,” explained Dale Vinten of Car & Classic. According to the site, the Jaguar fetched the highest average selling price: a whopping 89,000 pounds, or $113,000. But thatÂ’s peanuts compared to a Series 1 Roadster in excellent condition, said Vinten. For that, “you can expect to spend up to GBP250,000 ($318,000), A Series 2 or 3 will cost less, as they are not as desirable, but in decent condition you can expect to pay around GBP40,000-GBP50,000. Even a barn find 1969 E-Type Series 2 Roadster can set you back to the tune of GBP33,000 ($42,000)." Launched in 2005, Car & Classic is among EuropeÂ’s most popular classic car clearinghouses. It also runs a stand-alone auction site.
