1957 Chevrolet Pickup in excellant shape, the truck was painted in 1998 The paint on the outside looks fantastic other than the clear coat pealing in sections, inside the cab is pealing from the primer. The entire underneath was stripped, painted and new springs and shocks. The engine compartment was painted black. It has a 350 Cid engine that was rebuilt in 1999 it has an accel coil, torker intake, carter carburetor, headers, etc. Turbo 400 transmission was rebuilt with a shift kit and star floor shifter. The rear end is solid, the truck RUNS really, really good.
The body and chassis on this truck is in excellant shape, the lower rockers had been repaired, the cab and cab floors, steps, bed and bed steps, tailgate, hood, grill, bumper are all original and in excellant shape. the entire bed is almost mint, tail gate is like new. No rear bumper but I have the original brackets and flat bar hitch. I think the rear tail lights are aftermarket? All the other lights are original. The bed wood will need a few pieces shown in picture, a piece of plywood and new bed mat was put in to preserve the floor. The original owner had put fiberglass front fenders, he was going to tilt the front end and never did anything else; I didnt even know they were fiberglass untill he pointed it out. I think they are nicer than the original steel fenders. The glass looks original, no chips or cracks. The seat was completely redone and still in great shape.
All the factory gages, dash tach all work and look great, The front lights work and rears dont, I will look at the wiring or bulbs. The wiring should be cleaned up a bit.
I have tried to describe the truck as accurately as I can. I was going to just drive the truck and work on it in my spare time, my body guy was going to repaint the engine compartment and inside the cab and re-clear the truck and it would really be a nice ride. I just dont have the room to park all my projects and decided to sell a few.
The rims and tires are in good shape and i have four extra steel rims that go with the truck, the rears are extra wide and skinnier fronts, they looked really good on the truck but the tires were shot.
Feel free to call me with any questions or e-mail through e-bay; NO TEXT....

GM execs fired over fraudulent India emissions testing
Mon, 29 Jul 2013General Motors hadn't had a recall in India since 1995. That changed when it was discovered that certain employees were playing tricks with local emissions testing in order to ensure passing grades for engines. More than ten GM Powertrain employees in India and the US have been let go over the ensuing emissions flap, including Sam Winegarden, VP of global engine engineering, a man who has been with the company since 1969, leading development of some marquee powerplants.
According to Automotive News, an internal investigation revealed that employees "violated testing procedures," sometimes swapping specially prepared low-emissions engines during testing regimes for the Chevrolet Tavera SUV equipped with the 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter engines. Employees were also manipulating weights in order to get vehicles placed into different emissions categories. The discovery has led to GM recall the 114,000 Taveras produced over an eight-year period and halting their production and sale.
The Economic Times of India reports that the issue is due to "a faulty component." GM has developed a solution to the issue, and once it is validated in testing and approved by the Indian authorities, the recalled vehicles will be fixed at dealers and production will resume.
Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]
Mon, 27 May 2013If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues
Wed, 28 Dec 2011'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
