This is a 1949 Chevy Suburban Carryall with the Clamshell rear doors. I've had it for a while, but haven't done much to it. I have a couple other project vehicles ahead of this one, so it's time to go. The previous owner had it since 1956. The engine runs fine with no strange noises. The oil looks fine with no water, sludge, or condensation in it. The emergency brakes work, but the rest of the brake system needs to be rebuilt. The truck has rust and spots of bondo here and there, but is pretty solid overall for an eastern truck. The previous owner welded sheet metal on the floor boards. The rear floor is not rotted through anywhere, which is rare for this area. Some of the "Battleship" Linolium in the rear is still in place. The truck has a 6 cyl. engine and a granny 4-speed tranny. The tires hold air, but need replacing. There is a modern wheel/tire on the right rear, but there is an original style wheel that goes with the truck to replace it. There is a crack in the drivers side window and one of the drivers side rear sliding windows. The driver and passenger windows roll up and down, but will need work. The passenger side door sags a little when you open it, so it will need hinge work. The original front seat is in the truck and will need complete restoration. The gauges are faded and I'm not sure if any of them work. The cable retractor on the drivers side tailgate needs help to retract, but the other side works fine. The upper hinges on the clamshell will need some work, but it opens and closes fine. This truck does NOT have either of the rear passenger seats included. I have the clear Virginia Title in hand. Most of these trucks I've had in the past were titled by the VIN on the engine, which is bad if the truck had an engine swap. This truck is titled by the VIN on the data plate, which shows it to be a half-ton 3100, built in September 1949. This truck is fairly rough, but would make a great project. You can't fake patina like this. Please ask any questions you have before bidding on this truck. I will tell you the complete truth and not misrepresent it in any way. The truck rolls easily and I will help load for you, or the shipper. This auction may be ended at any time, if the truck sells locally.

Performance cars overpower the Detroit Auto Show
Tue, Jan 13 2015At precisely the stroke of noon on Monday, the 2016 Acura NSX rolled on stage at the Detroit Auto Show amid plumes of smoke and dancing lights. The sounds of the powerful engine revving soared to the rafters. It was the second coming of Acura's iconic sports car, and the reveal had all of the expected trappings. Afterwards, champagne corks popped and the bubbly flowed. It was noon in Detroit, but for the green-car movement, it seemed like the clock had struck midnight. That's an exaggeration, but performance was the overwhelming theme of North America's most important show. Ford – which has helped lead the way in smaller displacement engines and early adoption of hybrid powertrains – had more than 1,500 horsepower on stage one point after it revealed the GT concept, the new F-150 Raptor and the Shelby Mustang GT350R. The NSX is technically a hybrid (it has three electric motors), but with 550-plus hp, there's no doubt this Acura was bred on the track. The theme continued throughout the show at nearly every stand. Alfa Romeo showed off the 4C Spider, which is the open-air version of a car that purports to be the spiritual successor of the high-performance 33 Stradale from 1967. On Tuesday, Cadillac is scheduled to reveal the 640-hp CTS-V with the V8 transplanted from the Corvette Z06, and the Lexus was expected to roll out its own V8-powered beast, the 467-hp GS F. For enthusiasts – especially enthusiasts with money – these are halcyon days. But make no mistake, all of this power has a purpose. Ford product chief Raj Nair said the Blue Oval uses high performance cars to develop technologies, like aerodynamics and materials, which are then shared across its lineup. "It's another proof point about how serious we are in developing innovation through performance," he said. Ford, which is rolling out at least 12 performance cars by 2020, said the sporty cars attract younger and more influential buyers to its fold, which can help burnish its image beyond adding sales volume. Toyota is taking a similar approach, senior vice president Bob Carter said, noting the Lexus RC coupe draws people into showrooms and gets them excited about the brand, even if they don't end up buying one. "They provide an aspiration and a halo that provides the attention that gets you noticed in a cluttered market," he said.
Next-gen Chevy Cruze caught cruising in the cold
Wed, 13 Feb 2013Spy photographers have caught what looks like the next-generation Chevrolet Cruze out on snow patrol. The camo could be tricking our eyes, but it look like it has an even tidier, more rounded front end and even lower fenders in relation to the top of the hood. And either a chunk of camo has been wedged between the side mirrors and the doors, or the mirrors are up for revision, too.
The door handles have been moved up the side of the car, leading the way to a rear end that grows a bit in length. If the rumors are true, the coming second-generation Cruze sits on the new D2XX platform that will replace the Delta and Theta platforms at General Motors. A global architecture, the Cruze will be the first to get it, but it will underpin everything from next Chevrolet Volt to the Equinox and could be responsible for 2.5 million units by 2018. The next Cruze is expected to begin production in GM's Lordstown, Ohio plant in the third quarter of 2014.
