You are bidding on the best truck I have had it is a 1947 Chevy 3100 Thriftmaster with NO RUST in cab floors. Perfect sun baked paint. If you know these trucks you know most all of them have rusty floors. I purchased this truck to do a rat rod truck and have come to realize I dont have the time or space for it now. So I have decided to sell it. I will be kicking myself once it is sold. The 47 thriftmaster are rare in the fact the tank is out under the box from the factory. I was told they actually used a 1946 chevy frame on the 1947 chevy trucks. The truck is from mid west and has very dry sheet metal. There is rust in the bed from past owner leaving brush in the back of it,a couple very small spots on a fender and on drivers front edge of door,and inside by seam of rear window. All these spots I intended to leave and just put new boards in the box. The dents on the fenders on passengers side would most like be able to be worked out. It is a complete truck. Truck has not ran in 25 plus yard. It looks to have fairly fresh oil in it when I pulled the dip stick. Motor is stuck but would probably not take much to get it running. It will need towed and it doesnt run/roll very good. Clear title. It has the perfect patina to be one of those trucks at a show everyone talks about. Any questions feel free to ask. I can help arrange shipping anywhere in cont US. TX 650,CA800,FL800,etc will need exact zip code to get an accurate quote.

Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]
Fri, 25 Jan 2013The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?

800k car names trademarked globally, suddenly alphanumerics seem reasonable
Tue, 01 Oct 2013What'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.
