 Here's a story of a lovely lady..... Granny was the original owner and owned this car until 1988. It was barn kept by her son until 2001. I purchased it and drove her occasionally for about 8 years. I began restoring her in 2009. All metal on the car is solid or brand new including floors and fenders. 194 in line 6 Engine and 3 speed (on the column) transmission was rebuilt about 1200 miles ago. All new interior including seat belts with "Body by Fisher" plates on them, new paint (original color/polar white), and complete new mechanical parts all around including steering, suspension, and brakes. all new wiring under the hood including a refurbished original generator (no alternator). This car is totally original all numbers match. I've got parts in the trunk, some duplicates/extras... some need installed on the car. It still needs a few things done here and there including new exhaust, weatherstripping, post rubbers and felts on doors (some parts in the trunk). Passenger window is off track but does go up and down as you can see in the pictures. visors need re-done, antenna needs installed (I have it) hydraulic pump for the top needs hooked up (top does go up and down manually as seen in pictures). There is one small ding in the driver side near the windows but not very noticeable, needs driver side sill plate, and new heater core. Other than those few imperfections and unfinished things, she sure is pretty, and very fun to drive. Very smooth running. I have become sick and had a few surgeries and lost a lot of work and clientele. Time to find this old girl a new home where she deserves to be kept and finished properly as I am unable to do so. The winning bidder will save our family from serious financial difficulties and help us live a bit more comfortably. My loss is going to be your tremendous gain as I already have $20,000 into this beauty. Please come see this car and drive it before bidding. I do not want any unhappy third owner of her. She may not be a show car, but sure will treat you right while you drive her around town or in your local parade. Clear MO title (Originally from PA but was covered or garaged its whole life). Please email with any questions or to set up a viewing, or text me 417-two5two-43two6. No reserve. Car is for sale locally for a set price and could go before auction end. $500 deposit via PayPal at end of auction balance in cash at time of pick up. Will hold car for ten days after auction end unless other arrangements are agreed upon. Should be trailered, but can be driven home! I can pick you up at either Springfield Branson airport for $75 or St. Louis airport for $175 if you want to drive her home.  I am located in Willow Springs MO 65793.

Question of the Day: What's the most irritating car name?

Wed, Mar 9 2016

You hear a lot about how the Chevrolet Nova was a sales flop in Mexico because "No va" means "it doesn't go" in Spanish; in fact, the Nova sold pretty well south of the border, and in any case most Spanish-speakers know that "Nova" means "new" in Latin and Portuguese. However, General Motors doesn't deserve to be let off the hook for bad car names, because the Oldsmobile Achieva— no doubt inspired by the excruciating "coffee achievers" ads of the 1980s— scrapes the biggest fingernails down the screechiest chalkboard in the US-market car-name world. That is, unless you think Daihatsu's incomprehensible choice of Charade was worse. Meanwhile, Japanese car buyers could get machines with cool names like Mazda Bongo Friendee or Honda Life Dunk. It's just not fair! So, what car name drives you the craziest? Related Video: Auto News Design/Style Chevrolet Honda Mazda Daihatsu Automotive History questions car names

The biggest gas-guzzlers of 2024: 'The Meanest List' is the opposite of greenest cars

Thu, Mar 14 2024

In 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
