1952 Chevrolet Truck 3100 Standard Cab Pickup 2-door on 2040-cars
Daleville, Alabama, United States
Up for auction is my 1952 Chevrolet 3100 Pickup. I purchased the truck locally just over a year ago with the intentions of restoring it. When I purchased it the original 216 ran good. It also drove and stopped well. The previous owner replaced many brake and fuel components and upgraded it to 12v. I replace the plugs, wires, fuel pump, rebuilt the carb and put in a new battery. It ran just as it should before I started to disassemble it. This is a project I started but unfortunately due to military relocation I am unable to finish it. The truck really is not as bad as the pictures make it out to be. This is a southern truck so rust is minimal for its age. I started to replace the floor pans (see pics). The cab corners and rockers are original metal and in great shape. There are various dings, dents and minor rust spots throughout the vehicle. Again, understand this is a project! This truck is complete except for windshield and rear glass, tailgate and some bed ribs. I have extra parts including a set of doors, a rebuildable 235 short block and various other parts. I recently had the seat reupholstered (top and bottom). It's sitting on brand new white wall tires ordered from diamondback tires ($849.00 I have the receipt). The steering wheel has also been redone. I have approximately $1000.00 of odds and ends from LMC truck that will also go with in the sale including but not limited to floor pans (the passenger side is almost done). I really hate to sell this project but I know I won't get it done anytime soon. Due to its current state, the truck does not run. It does roll and stop just fine. It may be running in the next couple days if I find time to mess with it. The truck does not come with a title because Alabama does not issues titles for vehicles this old. It is currently registered and insured in my name. All you need is a copy of the current registration, a bill of sale and if your state requires a title, they will be able to issue one. This is a project that could quickly be put back together and on the road within a of couple days. If you have any questions, feel free to email me and I will do my best to answer them. Also, if you would like to look at the truck in person, please contact me and we can arrange a showing. Truck is for sale locally so I have the right to end auction early. Truck must be picked up ASAP after auction. Like I said, I'm moving and it has to go. The truck is located in Daleville AL, approximately 25 minutes west of Dothan, AL Happy bidding. $100.00 NON-REFUNDABLE PayPal deposit due within 48 hrs. I prefer the remaining balance to be paid in cash at pickup. |

Next-gen GM SUVs caught wearing new boxy bodies [w/video]
Wed, 15 May 2013We recently drove the brand-new 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and found it to be vastly improved compared to the outgoing model. And now that The General's pickup trucks have been squared away, it's time to focus our attention onto their passenger-friendly companions, the Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon (above).
Our spy photographers have passed along a huge smattering of photos (and a video), showing the new SUVs out testing. Both the short- and long-wheelbase models were spied, and while the overall shape of the vehicles hasn't changed all that much, we expect the updates to be substantial. In addition to new powertrain options, like GM's new small-block V8, we expect the interiors of both SUVs to get massive makeovers, providing better materials throughout their cabins and quieter, more refined environments. We even hear that some trick new suspension developments may be in store for upper-end models.
Visually, these spy shots allow us to see a couple of new details on the SUVs' front and rear fascias, including LED running lamps on the Yukon and some interesting LED taillamp treatments. Of course, the obvious third party missing from this set of photos is the Cadillac Escalade, but as we reported earlier, GM is working to further differentiate the 'Slade from the rest of the fullsize SUV lineup, and is working to make the new model "much less ostentatious."
Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too
Fri, 07 Dec 2012We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.
GM recalling 118K Colorado, Canyon pickups over missing hood latches
Thu, 20 Dec 2012General Motors has announced a recall of 118,800 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup trucks due to the possibility of secondary hood latches not being installed at the time of manufacture. The affected vehicles are from the 2010, 2011 and 2012 model years, all of which were built between November 9, 2009 and August 28, 2012.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, these trucks fail to "comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 113, 'Hood Latch System.' The hood may be missing the secondary hood latch." In other words, owners of these trucks could find their vehicles' hoods opening unexpectedly while driving.
The official recall campaign is expected to begin on January 17, 2013. Dealers will inspect the affected pickups and if a secondary hood latch is not present, one will be installed free of charge. Scroll down to read the official NHTSA report.
