Wow. Southern California AAA Emergency Service Patrol Truck. Painstakingly detailed to original specs from photos and information provided from the archives of the SOCAL AAA Club. Nothing was overlooked and no expense was spared during the 2 year frame off restoration of one of the most popular and iconic trucks GM ever made.
Most sought after options: 265 V8, Hydramatic, power steering, and rare power brake option.
0 miles since finished, you can see from the pictures that everything has either been replaced, rechromed, rebuilt, painted, buffed, polished or shined. Even the spare(not shown) is a brand new matching wide whitewall bias ply tire.
Records provided to the owner show that only 12 of these trucks were specially outfitted to the requirements specified by AAA. We are not sure if this was one of them but it could be. The L in the VIN denotes the Cameo was built at the Los Angeles factory. The serial #'s of those special trucks were never recorded so no one will ever know for sure. For more info just Google Chevy Cameo AAA.
And now a little information about the owner/restorer. Dave Smart is well know in the area as the go to person when it comes to 1955-57 Chevy/GMC trucks. He has personally restored several models from that era and this one happens to be his 3rd 1957 Cameo project that he has been involved in. You can be assured of the quality and correctness of his work.
Bidders, it is safe to assume there will never be another opportunity to buy a truck like this again. So don't miss out, especially since the high bidder could own her for as little as the opening bid, $30,000, since this is a NO RESERVE AUCTION!!! Far, far below the cost and time of the restoration. Of course at that low price the Cameo will need some minor adjustments such as final adj. of the doors and fenders, tune up, wiper arms installed, and electrical connections to the lights.
Full payment is due via bank wire or cash in person within 72 hours, time being of the essence, or the Cameo will be relisted. There is no deposit.
And finally. I am listing this Cameo for Dave. If you have any questions please call him @ 603-234-6798. DO NOT email me as I will not be able to answer any of your concerns.

Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing
Tue, 21 Sep 2010Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.
Next-gen Chevy Cruze caught cruising in the cold
Wed, 13 Feb 2013Spy photographers have caught what looks like the next-generation Chevrolet Cruze out on snow patrol. The camo could be tricking our eyes, but it look like it has an even tidier, more rounded front end and even lower fenders in relation to the top of the hood. And either a chunk of camo has been wedged between the side mirrors and the doors, or the mirrors are up for revision, too.
The door handles have been moved up the side of the car, leading the way to a rear end that grows a bit in length. If the rumors are true, the coming second-generation Cruze sits on the new D2XX platform that will replace the Delta and Theta platforms at General Motors. A global architecture, the Cruze will be the first to get it, but it will underpin everything from next Chevrolet Volt to the Equinox and could be responsible for 2.5 million units by 2018. The next Cruze is expected to begin production in GM's Lordstown, Ohio plant in the third quarter of 2014.
