Benton Harbor, Michigan, United States
See Description below for over 75 Full size Pictures of a complete frame off one of a kind Classic 1937 Chevrolet Pick-up. A little History; The 1937 Chevy half-ton pickup was not only the first pickup truck to be designed from the ground up, but it was also among the first to offer a full body instead of just the chassis and front cowl. Instead of relying on private body makers and even local lumber yards to provide the beds for their commercial chassis, Chevrolet created its own bed styles. This began a trend of American automakers handling all aspects of design and bodywork for their light and medium-duty trucks, one that continues to this day. The steel cab provided a modest level of comfort.

I purchased this Pickup in 1997 from the man who built it in 1993-94 This Truck runs and drives great . I have hauled everything from Pumpkins to my swap meet stuff to the Street rod Nationals. With a 20 Year old Build the paint and body are great. There a few
chips and scratches in the Tilt bed area and a small chip on a door hinge pin.
Also a small chip in the passenger fender under the bra it can be seen in the newest pictures at the end a tiny star in the front fender you have to look hard to see also crack in
the driver door window behind decal. (Vacuum Wiper works) (needs arm and
blade) The hydraulic bed cylinder Works great I installed a new line on the 21st, fluid and breather cap. Note: see pictures toward the end. I installed Air
shocks on the rear with separate air intakes to adjust ride height because one
rear leaf spring seems a little weaker than the other. The shocks help see new photo at the end also I have put a video at the end of all pictures. It shows the Hydraulic bed working and it was a cold day, you can hear it run both on fast idle and off. Sorry for the shakiness video, my hand shakes the more I hold the camera. Thanks.. ( If the video won't play I can e-mail you one. ) Please see all the pictures, and if you have any Questions or additional pictures please let me know.

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
Watch this creative way to pull a truck's engine
Fri, 08 Mar 2013Living in an apartment complex has its benefits, but for shade-tree mechanics who like/need to work on their own cars, it definitely has a number of disadvantages. Relatively simple tasks such as brake jobs and oil changes are difficult when you don't have dedicated driveway space, to say nothing of more in-depth repairs... like pulling an engine, for example.
For these types of challenges, a little ingenuity and plenty of muscle are needed to get the job done. Scroll down to watch these four men snatch the V8 out of a Chevrolet K1500 using nothing but a chain, landscape timber and good ol' fashioned brute strength. Good work, gentlemen.
