Up for sale is my 1952 Chevrolet 1/2 ton pickup, North Carolina Truck from Burlington, NC (near the center of the State of NC), super solid all the way around, with loads of patina. Door bottoms, fender bottoms, cab corners are super solid. Very well preserved over the years, no evidence of accidents or body damage, doors and hood close beautifully and evenly. Truck is very original carrying its factory 6 volt system, vacuum windshield wipers which work! and mechanical oil pressure gauge (which also works!). Bed is solid and wood is in good shape; looks like the tail gate was left open to hang upside down and water settled in the top part of the tailgate which rusted out the top ridge of the tailgate. Tailgates are readily available or this one can be fixed relatively easily. I have taken over 125 pictures and posted them to this link:

When the truck came in, it was given a thorough power wash to remove the 60+ years of grime and grease that had accumulated underneath the truck. All 4 brake drums were totally disassembled and rebuilt with new brake master cylinders, shoes, brake lines and hoses. New rear drums were also put on the truck. All of the old metal brake lines were removed and stainless steel brake lines were installed along with a new brake master cylinder and clevis and pin. New points and condenser and 6 volt battery in the truck and fresh gasoline were added. The truck runs beautifully, shifts well and starts right up with a pull of the choke and engaging the starter with you foot. It roars to life and you are ready to drive it after a short warm up. New 16 inch Firestone tires were installed on the correct 16inch wheels with new stainless steel hubcaps. Here is a video of it going down the road:

So, how do you actually pronounce that automaker's name?

Thu, Jan 21 2016

You probably have that friend who always says Porsche wrong, or maybe it's someone who keeps reminding you it's actually two syllables. Whichever side of the pronunciation debate you fall on, you'll find someone to root for in the video above. And before you ask, this was all the video team's idea. So don't get mad at me for being the voice of reason. BMW Chevrolet Hyundai Nissan Rolls-Royce Videos Original Video nissan qashqai

It won't be long now before Nissan Leaf finally overtakes Chevy Volt

Thu, Dec 25 2014

The two best-selling plug-in vehicles ever are the Chevy Volt and the Nissan Leaf. When the two vehicles launched in late 2010, the plug-in hybrid Volt quickly outpaced the all-electric Leaf and, despite lots of ups and downs since then, continues to hold on to a cumulative sales lead. This will change in 2015. Cumulatively, from November 2010 through November 2014, the Volt sold 71,867 units while the Leaf trails with 69,220. That's a difference of just 2,647. Based on current trends (with the Leaf selling around 2,500-2,700 a month and the Volt at 1,500-1,700) we expect the Leaf to take over either in January or, more likely, February when the Leaf takes over as the most popular plug-in car in America. Perhaps even March, depending on how low the numbers are for January and February, which are always slow sales months in the US. Of course, once it takes the crown, the Leaf can't expect to easily hold on for long. A new Volt is coming in the second half of 2015, likely beating a new Leaf to market. The question is, then, how well the Chevy sells with all of its new bells and whistles. Do you think the Volt will be the comeback kid once the 2016 model becomes available?
