San Juan Capistrano, California, United States

1958 Chevrolet Cameo Carrier:
Production of these unique trucks ran from 1955 to 1958, with many collectors who believe the most desirable models are those from “58”, with only 1,405 assembled, and the only year produced with dual headlights. This stunning example has been preserved in its original condition in three personal collections since 1979. With only one repaint throughout its life, on untouched original body panels, the truck is finished in spectacular original two-tone red and white and highlighted by gleaming chrome and stainless trim. The exterior is complimented by a gorgeous red and silver interior with cloth/vinyl seat & door panel inserts. Equipped with the dependable 235 straight six engine, with only 78,400 original miles, and column shifted three speed manual transmission. The truck is equipped with a deluxe heater and original AM radio. The undercarraige has also been kept detailed as nice as the rest of the truck.
This truck is not to be mistaken for a frame off restoration, but rather a true survivor retaining all of the original body panels, all the exterior trim pieces , all glass, all electrical components including controls, wire harnesses and lights, nos shocks, original era "Bedford" 7.10 x 15 tires (spare being brand new), and 99% original nuts and bolts. The truck starts, runs, drives and looks just as it did the day it came off the assembly line, including the original chalk markings on the fire wall from the assembly line inspectors. This rare Cameo is by far one of the most original trucks you will ever see and will make a quite a statement in any museum or a personal collection. Seller reserves the right to end the auction early as the truck is being advertised locally.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have and I will get back to you as soon as time allows.

Why Cadillac thinks it needs to succeed in Europe to sell cars elsewhere
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Ward's Auto has taken an interesting look at the renewed focus General Motors is showing towards Cadillac in Europe. Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe (pictured), says in order for the luxury brand to thrive in China, it first needs to succeed in the old country. The reason? Chinese buyers look to Europe for cues as to what's deemed worthy of the term "luxury." There are hurdles to the plan, however. In addition to the fact that the EU is flooded with high-end nameplates, GM doesn't necessarily have the distribution network in place to put buyers behind the wheel.
Combine that with persistent economic woes and Cadillac's checkered past marred by a lack of diesel engine options and a bankrupt distributor, and the road ahead for the brand looks like less of an uphill climb and more like a straight-up cliff face. But Docherty is optimistic and says she has a plan for the brand. We recommend heading over to Ward's for a closer look at the full read.
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.
