1956 CHEVROLET PICKUP / 3100 SERIES BEAUTIFUL TRUCK ...JUST TO DRIVE, OR CONTINUE VERY MINOR, REMAINING RESTORATION!! THE INTERIOR , EXTERIOR and WOOD BED, WERE ALL RESTORED ABOUT 6-7 YEARS AGO! THE TIRES AND RIMS ARE LIKE NEW! This is a STOCK vehicle except the 6cyl was replaced with a350 V-8, 4 barrel carb., dual exhaust and wheels and rims. Whoever did the change over did an excellent job. I Purchased this truck just two years ago, on "e-bay", and have had the following repairs done by local "Certified" Mechanics: "REBUILT TRANSMISSION", Rebuild and Re-Wire Starter, Replace Valve Seals, check over clutch assembly, check and re-pack front wheel bearings, and check all brake pads. When I purchased this truck, I was told that everything worked except the horn! When it was delivered, I found that it would not shift from gear to gear without major "GRINDING"....I took it to a mechanic, who specializes in older transmission, and had it rebuilt. He indicated whoever had worked on it, forgot to put the "snap rings" back in place when they assembled the Transmission! I REPLACED ALL BEARINGS and checked all gears and of course had the snap rings installed! The clutch assembly was also checked at this time and was in "very good" condition. The truck, also had a major problem with valve seals, which I had both banks replaced. The starter had problems as well, and needed to be re-wired due to "black electrical tape" type of connections. "Front Wheel Bearings" were checked and re-packed, all brake shoes were checked , and are in good condition. OVER ALL CONDITION OF THIS VEHICLE IS EXCELLENT, IN MY OPINION. The only two things that do not work are the horn and the radio. The radio is not original, but I do have the "original Radio Blank" insert included. There are a few additional minor repairs that I would do if I was to keep this. The doors need to be re-keyed (the keys that I received with the truck fit the ignition and glove box, but not the doors. The heater (which I have never used) should really have the cable assembly , and fan switch replaced or repaired, someone just put an external toggle switch on the fan. UNLIKE THE PERSON THAT I PURCHASED THIS FROM, I HAVE DISCLOSED ALL PROBLEMS, AND OR REPAIRS THAT YOU MAY CHOOSE TO DO!! This truck runs great and is fun to drive, now that I have fixed these items! THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAVE WITH IT, IS I FEEL AS THOUGH I AM IN A PARADE WHENEVER I TAKE IT OUT FOR A DRIVE! IT IS REALLY, A VERY, VERY BEAUTIFUL TRUCK, AND ATTRACTS A LOT OF ATTENTION! The only reason I am selling it is, I just don't have room to store it at my home, and that makes it seldom used. I have 4 other vehicles and have to sell at least one!! This truck wants to be driven!!! THERE ARE NO "DENTS OR SCRATCHES" OF ANY KIND ON THIS TRUCK!!! The ODOMETER READS 35,168 .......I HAVE NO IDEA WHETHER THIS IS ACCURATE. This truck has only been driven about 60-70 miles by me. I have stored this inside a warehouse / covered the past two winters. |

Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard
Tue, 19 Mar 2013Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette C7 Convertible offers a few more views before reveal
Mon, 04 Mar 2013Over the weekend, Chevrolet released its first images of the new 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Now, ahead of the droptop's official introduction tomorrow at the Geneva Motor Show, the automaker has given us a few more shots of the softop C7 showing off the car's rump albeit from a high, strategically positioned angle.
From this angle, it's hard to get a sense for how long and flat the decklid really is, but we can easily see that, like the rest of the C7's design, the new convertible's decklid and tonneau cover are far more detailed than the current car. We also get a better look at the rear haunches sans brake vents, which have apparently been moved to underneath the car in order to accommodate the top's hard cover.
As for the overall styling of the C7 convertible, with the top erected, we get some idea of what a coupe design (as opposed to the Stingray's fastback shape) would look like on this car. The C5 Corvette most recently had a coupe model that did away with the large glass hatchback, and we recently reported on a low-cost "coupe" model potentially being added to the C7's repertoire.
Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16
Wed, 06 Feb 2013The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.
