For sale is this 59 Fleetside. Into patina, ratrod or vintage? Here you go. Looking for that black liquid looking paint job, this isnt far away. No major body panels/sheet work needed.1 small hole near bottom of driver door,1 small hole near bottom of passengers door. One 3 inch circle on lower left driver's door. And the sunroof that someone thought was a good idea to install. Maybe so, just not my style. rest of sheetmetal in really solid condition. This a California truck. Couple little patches in the floorboard but very very solid overall, no Fred Flinstone style braking. Footsteps solid, inside rear corners, behind seat, all around gas tank solid. All metal bed rails present & mostly all straight. Even banged up, twisted, rusty, bent, rails are hard to find. Surface rust of course but will try to sand those down & hit with primer before it's sold.

It has a mid 70's 307 chevy V8 engine, powerglide automatic transmission, nice sounding dual exhaust, nothing too loud, just nice throaty. It has a Camaro front clip which adds power steering and power brake, disc brakes, better shocks. Mid 90's tilt steering wheel ( will make driving positions more flexible) The front clip was welded onto existing frame, so frame isn't hacked up, no structural integrity lost. Front clip = better steering, braking,smoother ride from mid 70's shocks system versus original 59 suspension. Also, parts are much easier/cheaper to find for mid 70's engine and 80's camaro front clip versus 59 chevy parts. The engine runs strong, kicks right over, sounds really good with the dual exhaust. The shocks need replacing and steering fine tuned. Original turn signals kept & work. Doors seams line up nicely and doors close solid.

Emblems,, I have the front side emblems, hood emblem and rear bed " Fleetside " emblems, you will need a new bench seat. It has one there but its beat up . I have 3 extra side quarter windows, the original steering wheel and wipers. And yes, current clear California registration, pink in hand, valid to Jan 2015...

I have a perfect ebay rating and plan on keeping it that way so you can bid with confidence. I am selling the truck locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early. If you live in the Los Angeles area, you are more that welcome, and encouraged to come check it out in person. Buyer is responsible for any transportation. You can email me and I can help set something up for you.

UPDATE!! I UPDATE! UPDATE!! I had a few requests on info/pics on under carriage. I jacked up the truck and took a bunch of pics. I also took a couple short videos of the engine turning over. I have already sent them to those who requested. If you also want more pics,videos, send me your email and I'll pass them on to you as well.

OnStar to offer 90-day driving assessment, possible insurance discount

Wed, Jan 7 2015

General Motors has announced a brace of new features for OnStar, two of which could help you save money assuming you're willing to sign over some (more) personal details. The first is a driving assessment program in which OnStar takes note of certain driving parameters for 90 days, then provides the driver feedback on their driving, both individually and when compared to other drivers in the program, as well as driving tips. Think of it as OnStar's ICE version of the Nissan Leaf's CARWING feature that compares how efficient your electric driving is compared to other BEV drivers. In this case, though, certain drivers will have the chance to share their assessment with Progressive Insurance, and if the numbers are right they might get a "driving-based" discount from the insurance company. The assessment program is voluntary, and requires opting in. It will be available this summer on all new GM cars and some GM vehicles back to 2013. In case this sounds like Big Brother, let's not forget that Big Brother is already here and moved in so long ago that he's a member of the Kiwanis club and is hosting neighborhood block parties. Progressive already has a million enrollees in a program called Snapshot that tracks OBD II data to offer usage-based insurance to provide annual pricing based on how much you drive your car, with discounts of up to 30 percent. The OnStar effort is just another way to do that. The second feature is proximity offers through AtYourService, which notifies drivers to deals and information on their driving route and provides coupons from RetailMeNot and Entertainment Book. Beyond that, a deal with Priceline will let OnStar agents book hotels for you starting this year, there's a tie-in with Dunkin' Donuts, too, but we're fuzzy on those benefits, and third new feature lets Chevrolet owners know when certain parts need replacing.

NHTSA closes book on Ford, GM probes of 600,000 vehicles

Thu, Nov 27 2014

US safety regulators have closed a pair of investigations into some 500,000 Ford Crown Victoria, Mercury Grand Marquis and Marauder sedans built between 2004 to 2007, and 100,000 Chevrolet Impala models from 2014. The Ford investigation focused on rusting heat shields, which may become dislodged and jam the steering, according to Reuters. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that this happened very rarely. In fact, of the ten incidents filed with the government safety watchdog, six came from a single police department, which evidently had some sort of problem with its reporting. As for the Impala, the NHTSA investigators attributed two incidences of "unintended autonomous braking" to user error. In both cases, the vehicles were involved in rear-end collisions. According to GM investigators, it's believed that drivers accidentally activated the electric parking brake, causing the collisions. The vehicles in question were rental cars.
