Guys.... here is your chance to get a very solid unmolested '53 2 door post. I had great intentions, however health issues forces me to sell off my cars. I'm a straight up "old" rodder and no B.S. on this end. I will reply to all questions ASAP...I have taken excellent photos for you to view (non of those faraway dark photos you see out there). The car is from Kansas and it has the DMV pink, original keys (locks work) no plates.  This is one of the straightest, solid, nearly rust free '53's you will find. Surface rust on the hood and top, see pics inside and inside trunk! I don't see any rust out other than the pic that shows a very small rust out area (easy fix) behind the pass rear wheel. There was packed mud in that area when I got it. As you can see from the pics the body is near mint.. and the stainless trim is aswell other than one piece above the rear pass window (see pic) I also have a near mint driver side front fender trim to replace the original which has a small dent The rock gaurds are not perfect but very good. Nice straight grill and bumpers. (see pics)  glass is good, frt/rear windows great, drivers side front is cracked. Near mint steering wheel, uncut dash, all interior handles are there, The front door panels were rough but the chrome original trim on them is mint, front door panels are in the trunk for temp plates (see pic) also very nice arm rests all 4.also door trim. Visors are intack. This car had 70's shag carpet when I got it.. you talk about ugly........ Interior is original and complete for temp plates and re-doing.Original chevy hubcaps and wheels, matching spare in trunk, rubber mat is still in trunk. Spare tire slot is not rusted out in trunk (rare). Motor is complete other than plug wires and I bought a set for the car (pic) The heater tubes are intack (rare) I have not tried to start the car, cleaned the tank or anything. The car has a broken hood spring, I bought one and it is with the car. The owner said it ran a few years ago when parked.? we have all heard those stories, however, from the looks of things I would bet that this ole' girl would fire with the typical, oil changed, tank cleaned, plugs, H2o, carb cleaned, a 12 pack of beer.... and alot of LOVE. However, a 350 would be alot nicer. Guys this is a great find and if you consider how straight this body is, and what it costs to have body work done, you see the advantage to a straight and complete car. I's a great classic to own and a affordable build... rat, restored or rodded, a cool ride.

 Here is the deal......... no surprises  (see all the pictures? I'm selling this car at a very affordable price considering it's condition.You know what'a out there. Go to a car swap and look at the crap that comes in on trailers for 5k and up. I believe a guy could get this car running and actually drive it in it's present condition with some mexican seat covers or whatever, a little brake work etc. clutch? 4 doors are going for this much "molested".  Solid '53 ....very cool!

 

The car is on my private property, and safe while waiting to be picked up. Easy access for loading. I will hold the car for 14 days unless other arrangements are made with me by the buyer. Pay pal is cool for the deposit and final payment. The fees suck, but I am willing to pay the 3% fees unlike others who add the % on to the buyer. A $1000.00 non refundable deposit is required within 24 hours of the end of auction. Real simple! if you buy it, pay for it! I have 500 100% feedback rating, old ebay member. If you have no feedback ..do not bid unless you write me. Actually I don't think this car will last long for the opportunity to have a bidding war.

Good luck and thanks for viewing!

Corvette Z06 and Viper TA square off at the strip

Wed, Jan 21 2015

There are many long-standing grudge matches among automobiles: 911 vs GT-R, Mustang vs Camaro, Ferrari vs Lamborghini... but as far as high-end American metal goes, it doesn't get much more legendary than Viper vs 'Vette. So after Chevy released the new Corvette Z06, we knew it was only a matter of time before it would have to square off against the Viper TA. And what better place to pit these two parallel pillars of American performance than on the drag strip? Fortunately that's just what we have here. In one corner, the 2014 Dodge Viper TA, with its 8.4-liter V10 pumping out 640 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque. In the other, the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06, the supercharger on its 6.2-liter V8 more than making up for the discrepancy in displacement and cylinder count to produce 650 hp and just as much torque. But numbers don't tell the whole story, so watch the video clip to see which reaches the end of the quarter-mile first.

What car should James Robertson buy to drive his famous 21-mile commute?

Thu, Feb 5 2015

The Internet has been abuzz this week with the story of Detroit resident James Robertson, the 56-year-old factory worker who has walked some 21 miles to work for the last 10 years. The Detroit Free Press brought Robertson's story to the fore, helping an online fundraising campaign to generate more than $275,000 (as of this writing). The original goal was just $5,000, or about enough to replace the used Honda that died on Robertson back in 2005, and left him walking. So, newly flush with funds, what's the perfect car for Robertson to buy? Let's look at the specifics of his situation, and try to pick out the best options. Here's what we know: Robertson's commute is (famously) 21 miles; he lives in downtown Detroit (for now) and seems pretty humble, so something very flashy is probably out; former Honda aside, his ties to the city (and statements about being a Ford fan) seem to indicate a Detroit Three company product is best; he's a single guy with a girlfriend; he's got to deal with Michigan weather, and the sometimes fickle snow removal processes in The D. Here are some choices: Ford F-150 Robertson is on record as being a Taurus fan, and after a decade of walking I've no doubt that the big sedan would offer a cozy respite. Still, as a car guy and a student of the industry, I'd have a hard time recommending a sedan so clearly in need of replacement. Especially when The Blue Oval has such great stuff within the rest of its roster. The 2015 F-150 seems almost perfect for Robertson. Opting for either of the new EcoBoost V6 engines should help keep fuel bills in reasonable check, while healthy ride height and four-wheel drive will get him to work on time even during the snowiest of snow days. Better still, with a fat options sheet and car-like ride quality, Robertson can have just about every amenity he might want, in a package that won't disrespect his blue-collar roots. Chevrolet Colorado You guys saw this one coming, right? The smaller footprint of the midsize Chevy pickup, relative to some of the other options here, should be an advantage for urban parking and driving. And again, 4x4 is an option for the nasty weather, the running costs should stay pretty low and there aren't many tech/luxury features that can't be had in-cabin. I'd go ahead and splash out on the Crew Cab bodystyle, too, just in case Robertson feels like starting a carpool.

Recharge Wrap-Up: LAPD gets Zero MMX, Chevy's new inverter, Hyundai Tucson's new powertrains

Wed, Jul 16 2014

Some police in Los Angeles will be riding Zero MMX electric motorcycles on duty. The LAPD is adding the fully electric police/military all-terrain bikes to its patrol fleet. According to Officer Steve Carbajal of the department's off-road unit, "It costs less than 50 cents to charge compared to using gallons of gas, maintenance is simple, and the community appreciates how quiet they are." The electric bikes, with their lack of noise and a headlight the rider can turn off, also have the benefit of stealth, giving the officers what Carbajal calls "an added tactical advantage." The MMX also has swappable batteries, is designed for quick ignition and has power reserve capabilities so the rider won't be caught with a dead battery while chasing down a perp. Read more at Ride Apart. Remember when it seemed like we'd never run out of oil, and giving your buddy five bucks for gas was actually a worthwhile gesture? Drivers of classic cars in Detroit were able to fill up their tanks at gas prices corresponding to their model year, thanks to a promotion by Hagerty Insurance for National Collector Car Appreciation Day on July 11. That meant prices from 21 to 90 cents a gallon, as the cars that showed up ranged from the years 1929 to 1989. That's about as affordable as charging your EV. Head over to Autoweek for more details and some photos from the event. The next-generation Chevrolet Volt will likely benefit from a new inverter being developed by General Motors. GM is about two-thirds of the way through the development of the new inverter, which should be ready in January 2016. The inverter, which has a peak output of 55 kilowatts a continuous output of 33 kilowatts, will be adaptable for use in other GM vehicles. Chevrolet is working to reduce the Volt's production costs by $10,000 per vehicle, which should make it more affordable, and the new inverter could help reach that goal should it make its way into the car. Read more at Green Car Reports. Hyundai is likely planning some interesting powertrain changes for the 2016 Tucson, says Green Car Reports. Plug-in hybrid? Maybe. Diesel? Probably not. "We are covering the waterfront on all alternative fuel strategies, from standard hybrid, to plug-in, battery-electric, and fuel cell," says Hyundai's US Chief Dave Zuchowski.
