1955 Chevrolet 3100 Pickup Truck First Series Short Stepside Original on 2040-cars
Kalama, Washington, United States
|
Up for sale is the very last of the First Series Chevrolet 3100 half ton short step side pickup trucks. 1955 was a split year for the Chevrolet truck. The first half of the 3100 model line of 1955 production was called the 'First Series'. At the mid point of Chevrolet's 1955 truck production they switched to an entirely different 'Second Series' truck, called the 'Task Force' series. This 1955 half ton 3100 model is a very nice find in that this truck is very rust free for a non restored vehicle. In the state we live in the roads are not salted in the winters. Therefore this truck does not have enormous amounts of rust usually found in other vehicles from states that do salt the roads in the winters. BOTH doors open and shut as flawlessly as the day this truck was built with ZERO slop at the hinges. The cab corners are absolutely rust free, as are the floorboards and the bottoms of the doors. There are dings and small dents in several places throughout, but as you can see from the supplied pictures these are minimal. Comes with stock seat, the original tin wraparound panel at the bottom of the seat, stock steering wheel and column. The stock gauges are all in place and the dash is uncut and undamaged in any way. All the wheels are stock 16 inch and it comes with three original hubcaps and even the spare tire and spare fender mounting rack. I have loaded as many pictures as eBay allows me to (24 in all) to assist you in deciding if this truck is right for your plans. Missing engine and transmission. Someone removed the steering box but we have loaded, unloaded and moved this truck around the shop by adjusting the wheels by hand while we move the vehicle wherever we need it to be. The vin plate is in place, is clearly marked with its serial number and has never been damaged in any way. Truck comes with a clear Washington state title. It is NOT a salvage or reconstructed title. If you have any questions please email us and we will find the answers for you as fast as possible. $500 NON-REFUNDABLE deposit required within 48 hours of close of auction. Full payment required within 7 days of auction's close. Winning bidder must arrange shipping but we will assist with loading the vehicle at time of pick up of this truck. Vehicle is sold as is, where is with no warranty either expressed or implied. Good luck on the bidding!!

Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.
Chevrolet Malibu gets across-the-board price cuts, hopes to dig out of slump
Mon, 11 Feb 2013To say that things aren't going well for the newly redesigned 2013 Chevrolet Malibu is a pretty sizable understatement. Reports have been swirling about the Malibu getting an emergency design refresh, less than a year after its introduction, as well as having its production at the Fairfax Assembly Plant halted twice already this year for excessive inventory. Now, Motor Trend is reporting that the midsize sedan will be receiving price drops across the board ranging from $300 on a number of models up to $770 on the 1LT trim; offsetting some of MSRP drop, though, the destination charge has increased from $760 to $810.
Without destination, the entry-level Malibu LS now starts at $21,995, which is still about $300 more than a Honda Accord and about $300 less than the segment's top-selling Toyota Camry. This new pricing also drops the price of the Eco, 2LT and 3LT trims by $300. The LTZ trim has dropped by $415, meaning that the Malibu's top dog now starts at just under $30,000, excluding destination.
Here are the new starting prices for all eight of the Malibu trim levels compared to the previous prices for the 2013 model year (including destination):
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.
