1957 Napco Chevrolet 3100 Factory 4 Wheel Drive Big Back Glass With Parts Truck! on 2040-cars
Ottawa, Kansas, United States
|
Up for sale here I have a rare first year factory built 4 wheel drive 1957 Chevrolet Napco 3100 big window truck. The truck was built in the Willow Run, Michigan plant which is where a majority of the Napco trucks were built. It has a clear ks title in my name that matches the body and frame vin. It has a 235 and a 4 speed manual transmission which was the only way you could get a factory built 4wd Chevy in 57. The truck has all its original 4wd parts other than the warn locking hubs were swapped out for new powertrain products hubs at some point. The truck sits just under 7 feet tall. The truck is very solid all around but it has had the rockers replaced and the were installed incorrectly over the top of the step instead of under it. The passenger side lower fender looks to have been replaced as well and it doesn't fit that well I haven't tried to adjust it. There also appears to be some work done over the headlights where most of these trucks rust. The cab corners look nice. The doors appear to be nice and solid and open and close like they should. The steps and floor are very solid with just a few minor pinholes in them. There's no rust in the roof or window channels of the truck. The bed and tailgate are straight and solid but someone removed the wood and metal strips. The rear fenders have very minimal rust and some dings in the but are definitely usable. The front and rear bumpers are straight and usable. The rear bumper is a Redi Fit bumper that wraps around to the rear fenders and the parts truck has a Redi Fit bumper that stops short of the rear fenders so its your preference. The chrome grill has some dings in it and would need redone. The truck has 15" truck rallyes on it with one missing trim ring. The windshield is missing but the tinted big back glass is there and looks pretty good with no blistering or chips. Theres some door glass and vent glass thats in one piece but it is old and weathered and should be replaced. The 235 is disassembled but looks good and complete. The 4 speed shifts through the gears and has a new clutch in it. The transfer case also shifts properly. Theres some extra chrome door glass frames and alot of other loose parts. The truck is missing the seat, the gauges, the 3100 fender emblems, the headlight bezels, and the drivers side exterior door handle but the parts truck has all those parts. If you don't want the parts truck to save on transport costs I'll remove whatever parts you want me to and put them with the Napco. The parts truck is also a 57 Chevy 3100 but its a 2wd and it doesn't have a title or an engine. I can probably get a clear title for it if thats important to you but I haven't done it because I didn't feel the truck was a good builder due to the rust in headliner, windshield and back glass area. This truck has all the typical rust that this model truck gets from the cab forward but the bed and everything attached to it look really good. This auction is for both trucks with all the parts that I have for them and I'm selling them with no reserve. Early Napco trucks restored properly bring $45-$50k when done properly. If you need a shipping quote contact Ryan @ ASAP Transport 913-201-0133. Full payment within 7 days and a $500 deposit due through paypal within 48 hours. Thanks and good luck bidding.
I have a piece of plywood cut for the bed of the Napco so parts can be loaded in it and the parts truck will have tires that hold air for transport. I also didn't mention that I live within an hour of 3 major Chevy truck restoration parts suppliers (Jim Carter Classic truck parts, classic parts and LMC truck) so if a buyer wanted me to pick up parts for them and send them with the truck to save on shipping I can do that. I also get a 10% discount at LMC truck plus no sales tax with my account there. Only reason for selling is to fund my dream car 1967 GTX build. |

Nissan Leaf makes it 19 in a row for record sales; Chevy Volt drops 21 percent
Wed, Oct 1 2014The Nissan Leaf continues its streak of "best month ever" sales with 2,881 EVs sold in September. Compared to the 1,953 sold in September 2013, that represents an increase of 47.5 percent and, as Nissan itself must be tired of saying by now, it marks yet another best month ever, same as last month and now the 19th in a row. Okay, sure, we know, Nissan will tout this run for as long as it can, but we're certainly expecting it each month, so if it ever doesn't happen, it'll be interesting to see how Nissan talks about it. Year-to-date, Leaf sales are up 35.7 percent compared to 2013. In any case, Nissan's director of EV marketing, Toby Perry, sent AutoblogGreen a statement that said, "Nissan Leaf owners have turned into some of our best marketers, and they jump at any opportunity to share their enthusiasm with friends and family. Take National Drive Electric Week – a grassroots celebration of all things EV and the perfect platform for LEAF owners to showcase the benefits of going electric. After celebrating with EV owners in more than 130 cities across the country, we saw a significant increase in Leaf showroom visits with midweek traffic just as heavy as what we see on the weekends." Year-to-date, Leaf sales are up 35.7 percent compared to 2013. Over on the Chevy Volt front, things aren't quite as rosy. After coming off a good August (the best sales month of 2014 by almost 500 units), Volt sales were down to 1,394, a decrease of 21.1 percent compared to September 2013. So far this year, Volt sales are down 13.2 percent year-over-year. It's kind of a stretch, but perhaps people are already waiting for the next-gen Volt, which will be revealed at the Detroit Auto Show in January, to go on sale? Speaking of things we say every month, our in-depth round-up of US green car sales is in process and will be appearing soon. Until then, please discuss how these two long-standing plug-in champs are doing on the sales floor. Green Chevrolet Nissan Electric Hybrid PHEV ev sales hybrid sales
Evatran, Bosch will sell wireless home charger for as low as $1,998*
Mon, Jan 6 2014At the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas today, the big news for plug in vehicles is that they can now start to ditch the plug. As expected, the system costs around $3,000 and is available for both the Nissan Leaf and the Chevrolet Volt. For the first 250 customers, though, Evatran is offering $1,000 off the standard price, a 30 percent discount. Deliveries start next month and Evatran says it expects the discounted units to all be snatched up in the first half of the year. The wireless charger charges as quickly as conventional corded systems. Called the Plugless Wireless EV charger, the 240-volt station will be installed by Bosch and needs a specific adapter to be used with the Volt or the Leaf (the Leaf version costs $100 more). So, any two-EV families out there will need to pony up double if there's a Chevy and a Nissan in the garage. Of course, since the Plugless system only works with older Leafs (2010-2012 model years - but with any Volt), any late adopters will not be able to take advantage of the new technology, for now. Evatran says the wireless charger "charges the Volt and Leaf as quickly as conventional corded systems and all vehicle features, such as charge-timers and phone applications, can be used seamlessly with the Plugless system." After the first 250 units, standard prices for the wireless chargers take effect again: $2,998 (Volt) and $3,098 (Leaf). Evatran says it will announce wireless chargers for additional vehicles and model years later this year. Evatran and Bosch offer Promotional Pricing as low as $1,998 to first 250 PLUGLESS™ Wireless EV Charging Customers LAS VEGAS, Jan. 6, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Evatran Group, Inc. ("Evatran"), in partnership with Bosch Automotive Service Solutions, announced today at the 2014 Consumer Electronics Show that it is offering reduced promotional pricing to the first 250 customers who opt to Go PLUGLESS with their electric vehicle ("EV") experience. The PLUGLESS system offers a convenient, wireless charging alternative to the repetitive process of unplugging and plugging-in electric vehicles. The reduced pricing includes all charging hardware and is as much as a 30% discount off the system's standard MSRP. The discount is available only to the first 250 customers. Initial shipments of the PLUGLESS system, the first wireless EV charging product in the world available to individual EV drivers, will begin in February 2014.
Recharge Wrap-up: BMW cars to share i tech, Jordan to build solar EV charging network
Wed, Jan 14 2015Jordan is looking to promote EVs and build a solar charging network. The country is waiving import tariffs on electric cars, and is spending $120 million on solar chargers. It plans to build 3,000 charging stations, along with 30 MW of solar power. Some chargers will be powered by solar canopies, while others will get electricity from nearby solar farms. Jordan's solar plan should also help to lessen the amount of energy it needs to import from nearby countries. Read more from Navigant Research, or at Green Car Reports. BMW's mainstream cars will benefit from technology borrowed from the i3 and i8, according to BMW sales head Ian Robertson. In an interview with Automotive News, Robertson said that next-generation cars will use carbon fiber more extensively, and that more cars will get plug-in technology. He said that about half of i3 buyers opt for the range extender and added that it is incorrect to refer to a range-extended electric vehicle as a plug-in hybrid. Read more at Automotive News. The ethanol market should remain healthy despite falling oil prices. While cheap oil could drive down ethanol prices, demand still remains due to the federal biofuels standard. Additionally, ethanol producers may find it cheaper to ship their products as domestic oil production drops and railroad shipping opens up. Ethanol byproducts like distillers grains continue to sell, and foreign demand continues as other countries impose their own renewable fuel standards. Read more at Yahoo News. Via Motors will launch the production of an electric Chevrolet Silverado. The company will convert the pickups into range-extended EVs at its assembly line in Mexico, near GM's Silverado plant. Via has the capacity to produce 10,000 vehicles per year at its Mexico facility. Via Motors Chairman (and former GM Vice Chairman during the early days of the Chevrolet Volt project) Bob Lutz wants to help make EVs mainstream in America, and believes that requires electrifying pickups and SUVs. Read more in the press release below.
