1956 Chevrolet Chevy Short Bed Cameo Pickup Truck V8, Auto, Ps, Pb *low Reserve on 2040-cars
Williamston, South Carolina, United States
Vehicle Title:Clear
Make: Chevrolet
Drive Type: AUTOMATIC
Model: Other Pickups
Mileage: 89,999
Trim: 3100
Up for auction is this 1956 Chevrolet 3100 pickup truck. This truck has that perfect patina and stance everyone is looking for and turns heads everywhere it goes! The best part about it is it has all the modern amenities like V8 power, automatic transmission, power steering and power disc brakes! NOT the typical manual everything 3 on the tree that you have to fight down the road. This truck has been fitted to a cutlass frame and drives like a car going down the road. You can literally drive this truck down the road 65-70mph and let go of the wheel and it goes straight as an arrow. It is a very reliable truck. I just drove it roundtrip 400+ miles to the Shades of the past car show in Pigeon Forge TN last weekend without issue.(My wife actually drove it home so that speaks to how confident I am on this vehicle)
The 307 V8 engine is fed by a Quadrajet carb. It fires up the 1st time every time, and sounds great with its all new aluminized exhaust with Thrush muffler.(See Video Link Below) It rides on new Boss 338 wheels 18x7 up front and 18x9 in the rear. It has been lettered up as a shop truck and had the grill, bumpers, and headlight bezels painted in cream white to contrast the blue body. It just has so many cool features like the wood bed, chrome fuel cell, and Mexican blanket interior that includes the door and kick panels. Even modern tilt steering with the old 50s steering wheel fitted to it.
This truck is obviously no show truck and not being represented as such. It has some rust in the usual truck places, but is certainly no rust bucket and far better than most. However, it is a very cool old truck that is very reliable and I would drive it anywhere. I have had dozens of these old trucks with cut springs, lowered springs, and even air ride, but this one hands down rides the best.

Again, this is a reliable turn key truck that is ready to go anywhere. All it needs is a new owner. Please email or call with any questions you may have

-I reserve the right to end the auction early as I also have it for sale locally

GM recalling 118K Colorado, Canyon pickups over missing hood latches
Thu, 20 Dec 2012General Motors has announced a recall of 118,800 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup trucks due to the possibility of secondary hood latches not being installed at the time of manufacture. The affected vehicles are from the 2010, 2011 and 2012 model years, all of which were built between November 9, 2009 and August 28, 2012.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, these trucks fail to "comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 113, 'Hood Latch System.' The hood may be missing the secondary hood latch." In other words, owners of these trucks could find their vehicles' hoods opening unexpectedly while driving.
The official recall campaign is expected to begin on January 17, 2013. Dealers will inspect the affected pickups and if a secondary hood latch is not present, one will be installed free of charge. Scroll down to read the official NHTSA report.

2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray order guide hits the web
Mon, 15 Apr 2013The official debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is only part of the excitement for fans of Chevy's virtuoso sportscar. Although we got to see the car and some of its preliminary specs in Detroit and Geneva, there is still no word on pricing and some of the juicier data points we've been waiting for - such as confirmed power output, EPA estimated mileage figures and performance numbers. Until then, CorvetteBlogger has gotten its hands on the order guide for the coupe version of the car - in both base and Z51 iterations - revealing tidbits like standard and optional features and available color combinations.
Some other new details made it onto the order guide, such as our first interior specs for the coupe including slightly less hip room and headroom, more shoulder room and the same amount of legroom. To see the full order guide, head on over to CorvetteBlogger. From what we can gather, it sounds like more information will be revealed on April 25 during a party at the Corvette Museum, and for those sun worshipers patiently waiting for a convertible, it would appear you've got another model year to wait through.
