1951 Chevrolet Pickup 1/2 ton deluxe cab. Fun pickup to drive and enjoy.

This little pickup is a jack rabbit down the road with the five speed tranny and Camaro rear end ('89 which is the proper ratio for the trans). Starts every time with choke. New mags and radial tires (15"), new clutch and pressure plate and flywheel resurfaced, new brakes, hoses, lines, master cylinder is newly rebuilt, drums have been turned, new drive shaft with balance and u-joints, gas tank removed and sealed with new sender, door glasses and windshield glass and rubber replaced, new battery, alternator/cables, new gas lines from tank to carb. Carb has been rebuilt but still not to my satisfaction, blows a little smoke from rich gas, I would replace it.  All new fluids in system, brakes, anti-freeze, oil, trans oil. New tranny mount, new gaskets on oil pan and valve covers. Fresh tune-up with new wires, etc. New spring bushings, pins, and tie-bolts on all four springs. Added turn signals/four way flashers. One key works doors, ignition and glove box.
New headliner, new faces on gauges and some new chrome parts.

Problems:  Front seat has a minor torn seat viewable in photo.  Slight leak in rear main seal.  I would buy a new carb if I was keeping the pickup.
                     Kingpins would  need to be replaced at some point in time.
                     Rust issues:  Minor rust in right rear cab corner and driver's floorboard as shown in pics. Lower front of pickup bed has rust as
                                               most of these old pickups didn't drain well out on the farm.
                     Speedometer needs to be lubed as it makes a bit of noise.

The pickup drives very well but I am very critical and strive for perfection.

We will be glad to store a bit longer if paid within the seven days.  Lower forty-eight states only. Thank you very much for viewing and or bidding on our little pickup.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.

Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes

Wed, 31 Oct 2012

It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
