1957 CHEVY 1/2 Ton Pickup
A Nice Survivor of its Era
Vin Body tag matches title

This truck is a good true survivor which sits straight and looks right.  It even has its original wiring that is NOT all butchered.  A great canidate for a complete restore or drive it now like it is.

This has an Original 235 6-cylinder motor (not 1957) that is a few years newer. However, if you are looking for the original motor that came out of this truck I do have it available. (see notes below on Original motor)

3-Speed transmission with overdrive. Shifts good. (see notes on transmission below)

This is not a shortbox or a longbox.  It is the in-between that most talk about that is used for the Cameo conversions. 48x90 on the interior.
New Doug fir wood in bed.

Glass is all new or good except the wing windows that have some bubbling.

Body looks like someone has done some restoration on it years earlier.  Hood has some bondo on it.  Any body work that was loose I removed the bondo.  .  Some rust in typical places.

Doors need adjusting as they sag some.  I think they need new hindge pins.

New Rebuilt seat

Windshield wipers work.  
All lights work.
Original gauges work except there is a hole in oil sending line, so it needs replaced.

New fuel tank and sending unit
New rebuilt carburator
Fresh tune up with new points, rotor, condenser, cap, wires and plugs.

New master cylinder. Brakes are a little soft. I think the wheel cylinders should be replaced eventually.
Needs heater core.

NOTES:
I also have the Original Motor - Needs rebuilt, good rebuilder with no ridge on cylinders, crank looks good, bearings look good, needs head gasket, rings are ceased from not being started in a lot of years.

Transmission- It is all there including the original wiring except theres a linkage that goes from the accelator petal to the transmission that is missing.  Should not be hard to find.

Actual mileage unknown on vehicle.

This vehicle runs awesome!

Chevrolet SS previewed by Holden VF Commodore SS V show car

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

It won't be long before we see the official, production-ready Chevrolet SS sedan (hint: it will be revealed this weekend). And to tide us over until all of the official details are released about the US-spec version, we have this: the Holden VF Commodore SS V show car, a performance-oriented brother to the Calais V that debuted earlier in the week.
What we really want to know about the SS V is what lies underhood, but General Motors' Australian arm is keeping that under wraps until the Chevy model breaks cover this weekend. Nevertheless, it's obvious that the SS V will be a serious performer, with all sorts of aggressive cues driving that home on the car's exterior. Take a look at those 20-inch billet aluminum wheels that hide big Brembo brake calipers up front, the sculpted hood and front fascia, the wide air intakes with LED running lights and the quad exhaust pipes out back. It's like the Pontiac G8 GXP never even left us.
Inside, there's a sporty-looking interior with aluminum accents that mix in with black leather and suede surfaces, all tied together in the middle with an eight-inch MyLink touchscreen infotainment system. It looks great, and again, while we don't know anything regarding powertrain details, it makes us oh-so happy to see a manual shifter smack dab in the middle of the center console.

Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

When it comes to technology used in racecars, we generally expect it to trickle down to production cars, not the other way around. Well, Pratt & Miller has developed a new rear-facing radar that operates in a similar fashion to what we're used to in modern blind spot detection systems, only it is also capable of tracking cars as they approach and relaying vital information to the driver via a large display screen.
The innovative radar system debuted at last weekend's 12 Hours of Sebring for Corvette Racing, and this system makes perfect sense for endurance races like this since the cars sometimes have to drive through the night and in poor weather conditions.
The radar can detect cars even with poor visibility, and uses easy-to-distinguish symbols for the driver to identify.

NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall

Wed, 13 Mar 2013


The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
