1957 Chevy Stepside Pickup (from Deep South) on 2040-cars
Paris, Michigan, United States
This is a 1957 chevy 3200 stepside truck I bought from an 85 year old man north of Little Rock. it has 70,785 miles on the body but a more modern 1967 6cyl was put in it. The truck has never been in a northern winter or around salt! The wood in the bed is real good with no rot and the truck only has pin holes on the bottom of the front fenders and no filler I can find anywhere else. There is a dent on the front rt fender and smaller one on the rt rear fender. The tailgate has normal dings and dents in it. The floors and rockers have no rust and are original. This truck needs a paint job as you can see in the pictures but is a really close to rust free solid good driving truck. It shifts out like it is supposed to and the brakes stop good. I just put new good year white lettered tires on it and a new electric fuel pump, new gas sending unit, oil change. The engine has a knock in it when it gets good and warmed up but does not smoke. I do have another motor from my other 57 truck that is I think from 1957 but would have to check the numbers to be sure. I would include that with this auction if wanted. All the gauges seem to work fine and all are clear not cloudy. The vent glass in both doors has bubbles between the inside and outside of the glass. There is no cracked glass but the windshield has clouding around some of it. The chrome is nice on it and all there. The grill and bumpers are real good. This is just an exceptional truck that is even clean not crusty under the body and on the frame. I am listing this unpainted only because some people like to see things not covered up or hidden. I have tried to give an accurate description but it is so very hard on older vehicles so ask any questions you like. I want the buyer to be happy! Delivery is available to some places so ask first please.

Chevrolet SS previewed by Holden VF Commodore SS V show car
Thu, 14 Feb 2013It 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.
Fewer than 1 in 3 Chevy dealers earn right to initially sell C7 Corvette
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Looking to make the launch of the 2014 Corvette Stingray as efficient as possible, Chevrolet will be limiting the numbers of its dealers that can sell the all-new coupe and convertible. According to Automotive News, sales of the C7 Corvette will initially be limited to less than a third of Chevy's total dealership network when the 'Vette goes on sale this summer.
Only 900 dealers out of more than 3,000 locations nationwide will be allowed to sell the new Corvette at first, and the reason for this is so that there are no shortages at dealers that can actually get the cars sold. The article says that the 900 dealerships chosen represented 80 percent of total Corvette sales in 2012.
Some of the requirements dealers had to make to get initial allocation of Stingray sales include having sold at least four Corvettes in 2012 and having a Corvette Stingray specialist who will be required to have gone through a training session costing more than $2,000 per attendee. Once demand for the 2014 Corvette Stingray begins to subside - approximately six to nine months after it goes on sale - then allocation could open up to more dealers, but the report indicates this could happen following the 2014 model year.
Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.
