Here we have a very solid 1946 Chevy half ton pick up truck. I have my own restoration business and am selling this for an older friend who is not able to use a computer. He has owned the truck for 20+ years. It was driven lightly and always put back in the garage. The truck is believed to have 56,000 miles but this CANNOT be verified. Looking over the truck it is very solid. I could not find rust anywhere, even on the underside. Someone did a quick paint job way back and it is not very good. Almost looks like it was done with a spray can. There are not many dings or dents. The worst of it is on the passenger rear fender but it is something that could definitely be fixed. The interior is very clean. The seat has been recovered and is in excellent condition. The bed of the truck has new very nice looking boards, however the metal strips in between look like the paint job of the rest of the truck. The chrome is not in very good shape. Its either been painted or it has dents, such as the chrome bumpers. The grill has been painted silver. The truck has the original in line 6 engine and manual transmission. I have driven the truck and it runs great. Fires right up every time and goes down the road with no problems. All of the wiring is in good shape but most of the lights such as turn signals and brake lights have been replaced with cheap units. They do work though. There is a small oil leak when it sits. Looks to be a rear main seal. Pretty typical of these old trucks. This truck also comes with a couple boxes of original parts such as the heater and spot lights. The thing I was most impressed with was how beautiful the doors close. Very smooth. Keep in mind this is a low mileage truck but over the years things small things have been modified. This truck is by no means %100 original. Cool little truck though. Any questions call Dave, 6082898189. Best of luck.

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.
Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept blends the past and the future
Wed, 19 Nov 2014The Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo is the rare concept car that salutes a seminal moment in history, yet also borders on science fiction.
Revealed Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the concept uses the name of one of Chevy's historic racing partnerships, with Chaparral Racing, which dates to the 1960s. Chaparrals raced successfully at a range of levels, including IndyCar, Trans-Am and SCCA competition.
But the history ends there, as the concept's main purpose is as a racecar in a downloadable update for the PlayStation 3 game Gran Turismo 6.
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.
