hello! this is the last of my project type cars. i have been moving a number of them in the last year and half. this is a great 59 wagon that be restored to original or make a great rat rod wagon. honest barn find here in ohio but was driven from 0klahoma in the early 80s. it has sat quite awhile, needs total restore but great bones and very complete except for minor things. first off let me say importantly that the car will need floor pans obviously. but i have taken much time to scrutinize all the rust issues on the car, and the outer body,doors, rockers and inner rockers,floor supports,core support,rear wheel wells and lips, inner and outer quarters are all incredibley good. it has one small rust area in the spare tire well at the forward dip, see pics. there is minor rust out under the rear seat reall just needs minor patching.that pont forward is what needs replaced as you can see in the pics. the supports where the pans set are excellent front and back, and where the pans meet the inner rockers are also perfect. it will be very easy to make your own for a quick job or lay new ones in and will be hard to even notice. the tailgate is excellent. the hood looks good from the outside but typical bottom lip is going.battery box area rusted but overall very nice inner fenders, air ducts etc. the interior is still pretty nice, typical front seat, but very respectable door panels, this is a 9 passenger and the jump seats are super nice. the bottom of the extra seat is there but the top is missing. even the original cardboard headliner isnt too bad. decent tinted glass all the way around,crack in left vent and left rear side. roll up and down great. the the right door has obvious damage but should be pulled out with out major effort. 332 auto condition unkown. pulled the plugs and oiled her up, does turn over by hand, at the least the trans stays in park very well i think f you had a rust running 59 4 door would be a good way to do the car, or a late model crown vic etc. it can go rat rod on a cheap budget as the outer body is fine as is.or a good car to restore to original. the mettalic blue was sprayed right over top the original wedgewood blue and is cooly flaking off in various places. there appears to be no previous body work any where. only known missing parts is hubcaps,wiper motor and air cleaner that i see. the sill plates where bad. ask any questions you have. this will make a neat car, the real main effort is the floor pans. will help with loading here. overseas buyers fine. 0 and lower negatives contact first or i will cancel bids if i smell a rat. thanks!

Which car companies are creating new jobs in America?
Fri, Sep 22 2017Since January, automakers have announced investments totaling $9.5 billion in U.S. plants, creating or retaining more than 12,000 jobs. Some of those companies have yet to announce just how many jobs will be created given their investments, with the location of many of those jobs still to be determined. Specifically, the 4,000-job Toyota-Mazda joint venture plant still hasn't announced its location, with numerous states jockeying for it. Hyundai has plans to invest $1 billion but has not announced a jobs number yet. And likewise Ford is investing $1.2 billion in Michigan without specifying a number of jobs. Volvo this week announced plans to add a second line to its factory under construction in South Carolina, spending another $500 million and adding 2,500 jobs to the 2,000 it was already trying to fill. Then Thursday, Daimler announced a $1 billion expansion to its facility in Tuscaloosa, Ala., to produce EV batteries and electric SUVs, a move that will add 600 jobs to its hiring this year. Above, we've created a handy pie chart showing you which companies have announced new jobs and how many there will be.

The biggest gas-guzzlers of 2024: 'The Meanest List' is the opposite of greenest cars
Thu, Mar 14 2024In some circles — especially some automotive circles — bigger is better. This explains the Hummer, for example. In its so-called “Meanest List” of a dozen models, the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) makes no apologies for berating “the worst-performing mass market automobiles” sold in 2024 in the U.S. The most diminutive car on the list is a Chevy Corvette Z06. At the top of this particular heap is the Mercedes-Benz AMG G63, a gas-powered SUV that the environmental agency says was “the worst-performing vehicle of the more than 1,200 models assessed by Greener Cars and has an annual fuel cost over $4,000.” Not to mention its MSRP of around $184,000. Rank Make & Model Powertrain Green Score MSRP Estimated Annual Fuel Cost* 1 Mercedes-Benz AMG G63 Gas 20 $184,000 $4,242 2 Ram 1500 TRX 4x4 Gas 22 $98,335 $3,819 3 Ford F150 Raptor R Gas 24 $79,975 $3,777 4 Cadillac Escalade V Gas 26 $152,295 $3,388 5 Dodge Durango SRT Gas 26 $74,995 $3,332 6 Jeep Wrangler 4dr 4X4 Gas 27 $35,895 $3,260 7 Jeep Grand Wagoneer 4x4 Gas 28 $91,945 $3,058 8 Mercedes-Benz G550 Gas 28 $143,000 $3,186 9 GMC Hummer EV SUV EV 29 $98,845 $1,746 10 GMC Sierra Gas 29 $37,700 $3,069 11 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Gas 30 $114,395 $3,169 12 Mercedes-Benz Maybach S680 Gas 30 $234,300 $3,031 *ACEEE analysis using EIA data of the annual cost of driving 15,000 miles In terms of numbers, the dirty dozen of the meanest includes seven SUVs and three trucks. Lonely at the middle of the list is the sole electric, the GMC Hummer EV, which weighs in at 9,000 pounds. The council notes that “though EVs have lower emissions than similarly sized gasoline models, the Hummer demonstrates that size and efficiency, not just fuel source, are important factors in a carÂ’s environmental impact.” ItÂ’s also worth reminding prospective buyers that the average fuel cost of a vehicle on the “Greenest List” eats up only a fifth of the fuel cost of a vehicle on the Meanest List, “showing that greener options can also be more affordable.” The ACEEE also put out a "Greener List" of efficient gasoline and hybrid cars that don't require plugging in. By the Numbers Green Cadillac Chevrolet Dodge Ford GMC Hummer Jeep Maybach Mercedes-Benz RAM Emissions Fuel Efficiency Green Automakers Truck SUV Electric Hybrid
