I am selling a 1956 Chevrolet 3600 Pickup truck that is the complete package. Truck began life in sunny, dry California. About 15 years ago the former owner bought it and began a cross country trip to Massachusetts. Halfway across the country the motor blew and he installed a rebuilt 400 small block (sorry the old block is not available), and completed the trip. Upon reaching his destination, he spent the next 2 years buying over $5,000 worth of parts, catalogues and upgrades but sadly as is often the case the project stalled when life stepped in and now after a long dry storage this awesome truck is up for sale.


Truck is pretty much rust free but due to long storage has surface stuff you can see in the pictures but very slight. The frame is clean enough to eat off of! Interior is the same with solid floors. Some rust has appeared underneath doors but that is it. Truck runs fine but with todays "corn gas" naturally needs to be fine tuned with fresh fuel. A brand new fuel pump and 700 Holly carburetor were just installed.I ran it around town and everything works as it should including brakes. The power of this motor will please any new owner. Frame is spotless, interior is pretty much untouched with solid seat and floors. Body is very straight with only a couple small spots that need looking at. Brakes, suspension etc., are all working fine. Past owner planned to switch out the front end and all parts are there to finish if you choose, according to him. I took pictures of it all and it appears that except for a coupe bushings, he is correct.

Parts List;

400 small block, rebuilt
4 speed close ratio transmission
3.59 posi rear end
Hurst shifter
aluminum intake
headers
dual exhaust
electronic ignition
Holly 4-barrel carb
**New Mustang II front end 
   (independent front suspension, rack and pinion steering and 11 inch disc brakes)
   in boxes to be installed
New hardwood (appears to be teak or mahogany) kit and stainless steel bed kit in boxes to be installed
chrome water pump
brand new Holley 700 (installed)
brand new fuel pump (installed)
New Stainless Steel Adjustable Steering Column
New rubber gaskets for all windows unopened
New Power Brake booster and pedal
New Master Cylinder 
Sway Bar
Repair manuals and parts catalogues to assist in the project
Most boxes were unopened with original invoices included! Totaling over $5,000 from purchase dates
(Sadly, the tailgate was lost while motor was being installed but are available on line for less than $200.00)

This truck is the complete package for the Father and son project or retired gear head to complete and have a very rare truck that will be worth at least double what the package costs. These old trucks are harder and harder to find, especially in this condition with such an extensive group of parts. Truck comes with a clear MA title, so no issues for future registration to the new owner. Naturally the vehicle has no warranty due to age and due to being for sale locally I reserve the right to end the auction early. I am happy to help load vehicle for transport but shipping costs are the responsibility of new owner. I have tried to describe the truck honestly but probably am forgetting something, so I encourage questions since my mind reading skills are very poor.

Due to so many (not serious) people out there, I need to speak with anyone with either negative or less than 10 feedbacks, or the bids will be cancelled. This is serious business and I do not have the time, energy or money to deal with dishonest folks who ruin auctions.

Good luck bidding on this classic, collector truck. A nice running, driving, stopping , mostly rust free vehicle with a ton of parts and manuals to make you the talk of your local car shows!! You can enjoy driving the truck as is, while working on it. Many more pictures are available and I can shoot addition ones if you like. Please include a phone number with your questions and I will be happy to discuss this awesome truck with you.

Thanks for viewing my auction!!

Man surprises girlfriend with C7 Corvette

Mon, 07 Oct 2013

How would you react if someone just showed up at your place of work with a new, 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, complete with all the trimmings? While a lot of us would likely be flipping out over the still rare sports car, it's a fair bet many more of us would be responding like Pattie here, whose boyfriend stopped by her work to show her her new C7.
Speechless and shocked as she seems, she does end up taking it out for a drive, despite claiming she wasn't really outfitted to handle the car's seven-speed manual transmission at the time. From the sound of the video, we got the impression that she knew the car was coming, just not that it was anywhere near ready for delivery. It also, as Pattie says, seems like her boyfriend is more excited about the car than she (which, can we blame him?). Take a look down below for the full video of this C7 Stingray delivery.

Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.
