Condition:Used

 This upper tailgate is off of a 1966 VOLVO 122  AMAZON wagon. This tailgate will bolt up to any year 122 wagon however, the stay supports are different on the earlier pre-1965 wagons. This tailgate is off of a west coast car and has been inside my shop for decades. The over-all condition of the tailgate is very good. There is some deep pitting along the edges of the seams however, all the seams are solid and strong. The track molding is straight and solid. There is a slight "ding" on the top edge as shown in the photo. More than easy to fix. The tailgate metal needs to be sand blasted on some of the edges before any primer. The right side tailgate stay post needs to be brazed. Nothing is bent. It just needs to be brazed or welded to locate it. When surfaced properly, this will end up a very solid and excellent tail gate. NOTE-I have the tail gate listed as local pick-up however, I will ship it and the cost will be determined by the destination point. Obviously shipping from ME to MA is very different than from ME to CA. I will use UPS Ground for shipping. Purchase the item and request an invoice with shipping included. Any questions call 207-882-5033 daytime M-F.

‘Big Red London Bus’ returns

Sat, 13 Nov 2010

The 21st Century 'Routemaster' Double-Decker Bus will be in service by 2012 I doubt we can speak for everyone who visits London. But from our perspective London is a poorer place now the iconic Routemaster red buses are relegated to the odd heritage route and pay-to-see tourist trip (and we’d have to say the same about Mercedes Taxis – nicer places to be but they don’t look right). What’s needed is a 21st century version of the Routemaster (and the Black Cab – but that’s another story).

Hyundai ix35 – UK details

Mon, 07 Sep 2009

The Hyundai ix35 will launch at the Frankfurt Motor Show But now we have more Euro details from Hyundai on the ix35 which will officially launch at the Frankfurt Motor Show next week. The new ix35 is longer and wider than the outgoing Tucson but is actually 20mm lower, although headroom is unaffected. As we already know, the ix35 is a pretty close call for the ix-onic concept we saw at Geneva, and features Hyundai’s new hexagonal grill.

Whos Where: Pierre Castinel is Head of Design at Tata

Wed, 02 Apr 2008

Indian automaker Tata has been front page news often in recent times, first because of the impressive one-lakh Nano, which changes the automotive industry playing field, and most recently because of its acquisition of Jaguar and Land Rover from Ford's Premiere Automotive Group for the tidy sum of $2.3 billion - less than half what Ford paid for both companies in 1989.  At the helm of Tata's design efforts is Pierre Castinel, Head of Design. Though only officially announced in March this year, Castinel has been active at Tata since he left Renault in summer 2007, a company he worked at for 20 years. Castinel started as a modeler for Peugeot and worked there for three years.
