This is my driver quality 1951 Chevrolet 3600!
This restomod has all original Sheet metal aside from the front of the bed. It
has been equipped with some nice new age additions. With the stance it drives
and feels more like a Chevy 3100 but with the harder to find 3600 titling. It
does have a clear title in my name. The paint is metallic midnight blue and It
was painted in sections and not as just a overcoat on top of assembled metal. Every
piece was painted individually. It is not a show car that is 10/10 for every
aspect, But with that said, this is a driver truck that I am not selling for
45k. This is a truck you can drive and enjoy. “ I don’t want a gun I can’t shoot, or a truck
I cant drive”. The grill, running boards, fenders, hood and tailgate are all
original and there is no fiberglass anywhere on this truck. All Rot has been
cut out patched appropriately The motor is a 235
inline 6 that is in excellent shape from a 1954 Chevy when pulling the engine
code and it is still a 3 speed manual transmission from the factory. It does
have a Rochester B Carb that has been rebuilt with a brand new choke cable. The
distributer was rebuilt and works great As you can see in the pictures truck has been upgraded with
a front end disk brake kit that is brand new including brake lines and it has
been converted to Chevy 5 lug in the front and 74 Chevy Nova in the rear. The
driveshaft has been modified to work with the nova rear end as well. Brand new
shocks as well. Even though it has a retrofitted rear end I purchase a Lokar E-brake conversion cable kit that hooks up the original parking brake setup to this rear end. You will NOT find many older trucks with working parking brake cables like this one. it is hooked up. needs to be adjusted but installed. It has a brand new 2
Bore brake master cylinder with prop valve as well. No more unsafe 1 bore
master cylinder. All of the brake line has been converted to nickel copper
brake line as well. The gauges are original and aside from running lights are not hooked up at this time. , but the car is sitting on a brand
new 12 volt harness and ignition switch for that modern charge and convenience.
I also added turn signal switch to this truck so you can have some modern convenience
in a old time ride. Brand new tail lights with incorporated license plate
bracket for that nice clean look It also has a brand new complete wood bed kit that includes
wood, bolts, angle bars, and metal slats. And bed blocks. The wood has been
Minwax polyurethaned to keep it looking awesome for years to come. I have also
created a Wood Bed Rail Kit that is Minwaxed to match the wood Bed that I find
very sharp looking. Sitting on a brand new set of 17x7 inch Riddler rims and
tires. Black Seat on Original frame in Very nice shape. It also has
a Original Steering wheel, Radio bezel, and glove box. New headliner, door
panels, speedo cable, turn signal switch, headlights, headlight bezels and
gaskets, wiring harness, shifter head, and tail lights. Another perk is all of the glass has been removed and
replaced with new original style green tinted glass. The headliner is brand
new, and so are the door panels. Gas tank is original style and is brand new. No rusty gas in
this bad boy. Inside and outside are all painted midnight metallic blue and the
frame is painted black I have put allot of love time and money into this truck and
I am sad to see it go, but as life throws us curveballs it is just one of those
things that has to happen. There are a few things you can add yourself to spruce it up, but I have decided to leave off due to me needing to sell it. : gauges need to be hooked up to work, horn doesn't work, there is no exhaust. there Is a pipe that goes from exhaust to bottom of truck, but that's it . there are runs in the paint. paint is a 7/10 shape in my opinion Obviously this is a classic truck and is sold As IS Where
is.. But you will not be disappointed in this buy. You must arrange the transportation and pay for that
yourself, but I will assist the delivery company with loading if they require
it. This is a great truck. I hope it sees allot of road time because old trucks are meant to be driven, not stored. I can purchase and install a new aftermarket gauges if that is a major deal breaker, but I will go up on the sales price. |

IIHS gives good ratings to 4 of 8 midsize pickups in crash test
Wed, Sep 6 2017Versions of the Toyota Tacoma, Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon Crew Cab earned top ratings in a new crash test of midsize pickup trucks from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, while two versions of the Nissan Frontier earned marginal ratings. But the organization gave poor marks to all eight pickups tested for their dim headlights. Overall, four of the eight pickups evaluated earned good ratings for protecting occupants in all five crash test categories — the Tacoma double cab along with crew cab versions of the Colorado, Canyon and Tacoma. But the poor headlights and lack of an automatic emergency braking system blocked any of the pickups from qualifying for the IIHS's Top Safety Pick awards. The study looked at two pickup body styles using 2017 models: crew cabs, which have four full doors and two full rows of seating, and extended cabs, which have two full front doors, two smaller rear doors and compact second-row seats. It subjected each to five tests, and it evaluated the performance of front crash prevention systems and headlights. The Toyota Tacoma crew cab was the only pickup in that class that earned a good rating for structure in the small overlap test, which replicates what happens when a vehicle clips a tree, pole or another vehicle that has crossed the center line. The model's Access Cab extended-cab version was rated similarly, though its structure was rated acceptable. "This group of small pickups performed better in the small overlap front test than many of their larger pickup cousins," says David Zuby, the Institute's executive vice president and chief research officer. "The exception was the Nissan Frontier, which hasn't had a structural redesign since the 2005 model year." The extended-cab versions of the Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon earned acceptable ratings, while both the Nissan Frontier king-cab and crew-cab models were rated marginal. Toyota says its 2018 Tacoma will feature upgraded headlights and a standard autobraking system that can detect pedestrians. "Headlights are basic but vital safety equipment. Drivers shouldn't have to give up the ability to see the road at night when they choose a small pickup," Zuby said.

Corvette Stolen In Detroit Returned To Owner After 33 Years
Wed, Jun 25 2014A Detroit man had his stolen Corvette returned 33 years after it disappeared while parked on one of Detroit's main drags, according to ABC 7. The last time George Talley saw his 1979 Corvette was on a July day in 1981, when it disappeared from its parking spot on Jefferson Avenue in Detroit. He had given up hope of ever seeing his car again, until a phone call from AAA brought his sporty ride home. Authorities had come across a Corvette with a questionable VIN in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. When they ran the number Talley's stolen car report came up. The car is still in pretty good shape and only has 47,000 miles on the odometer. Talley wasn't sure how he could get the car back home, but General Motors stepped in and agreed to cover the cost of bringing the 'Vette home. Talley has always had a passion for Detroit-made muscle cars. "I've always liked Corvettes. It was attractive. The ladies like 'em," Talley told ABC 7.
GM may have teased a whole group of electric vehicles
Tue, Jan 12 2021During GM's big CES press conference, the automaker highlighted a number of its upcoming electric car-related projects from delivery vans to the upcoming flagship Cadillac Celestiq. In the middle of it all, a collection of mystery cars sat in the background behind speakers. They were in the dark, lit only with their running lights, and while it's possible they're just generic filler cars or concepts, we think they could be future products. Our best shot of the cars together is shown above, and we can pretty easily identify three of the vehicles. In the center is obviously the GMC Hummer EV. On either side of it are Cadillacs. To the left seems to be the Lyriq crossover, and to the right is the Celestiq sedan. Two of these cars have production dates, and the third has been confirmed for eventual production, just without timing. This is why we think the rest of the cars are upcoming models. The next most easily identified car is on the near right behind the Cadillac Celestiq. It very clearly has a Chevy bowtie illuminated in the running lights. And looking closely, it appears to be a pickup truck. It's difficult to make out anything more than that. The nose does look a bit more rounded and swept back than the brick-like designs of the Silverado truck line. That also squares with what seemed to be the upcoming truck that appeared in the background of yet another GM presentation. GM previously said this electric Chevy truck will be a full-size model with up to 400 miles of range. That leaves us with three more mysterious models. Over to the left behind the Cadillac Lyriq are what appear to be a pair of crossovers. The one on the far left looks low, curvy, and possibly with a fastback roof. The one on the right is taller, boxier, and probably more of a full-size people hauler. It's hard to say much more beyond that. They could be new electric Buicks, which would fit in nicely with that brand's crossover portfolio, and would likely be highly successful in China, where Buicks, crossovers and electric cars are all rather hot commodities. As for the mystery car on the far right, it's quite a puzzle. We can at least rule out Buick and Cadillac, and GMC since it's definitely a car, and a rather small one compared with the other cars on display. That leaves Chevy, and possibly the autonomous division Cruise. We're leaning toward it being a Chevy, since the first Cruise vehicle is going to be a boxy pod of sorts.
