A very clean running, driving vintage 1951 chevy pickup. Perfect for a vintage driver or a fantastic restoration candidate. Starts easily and runs strong, shifts smoothly through all 4 speeds and drives down the street or highway quite nicely. Mileage is presumed to be original at 114702 as the speedometer and odometer are currently working and do not appear to have ever been tinkered with. I have no proof of this, but the condition of the vehicle in general supports this.
The title is clear, to license and drive.
The bad news first - not much. There is always rust on these old pickups, but this one is unusually solid. The frame is solid and the body is great with the exception of some very minor floor rust through - somewhat beyond pinholes but not much. The pictures show this. Underbody is great, note the photo of the battery box beneath the passenger side - which is a typical corrosive environment - this is solid, and the photo of the underbody of the gas tank (behind drivers seat) which is perfect.
The good news - lots. This is a largely unmolested truck, still has the original 6 volt system, and most everything works. For example, the lights work, all the engine gauges work, the speedo works, plus the odometer. The gauge lighting works, even the inside dome light still works. The vaccum powered wipers work. The doors open and close nicely, the windows are good, in fact all the glass in the vehicle is intact and not broken.
Hopefully the pictures tell the story pretty well, I bought this truck for a restoration project and have now decided it is better for a vintage daily driver. So I am in the market for a project to keep me entertained on cold SD winter nights.
Vehicle is sold as-is where is. I will assist in loading for out of town buyers to a practical extent, but buyer is responsible for all transport arrangements and cost. Local area buyers can roll up a pack of Lucky Strikes in your shirt sleeve and drive it home.
Vehicle is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.

Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat vs. Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 in latest Head 2 Head
Fri, Jan 30 2015"Olympian" is one of the terms we use to signify the greatest height, the seat of the gods. Yet Mt. Olympus is the second-highest peak in the Balkans ranges, overshadowed by the crest at Musala in Bulgaria's Rila mountains. Both great heights, but one is a little higher. That's how we get the Olympian Chevy Camaro ZL1 pitched at the Musalic Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat in Motor Trend's latest episode of Head 2 Head. The side-by-side spec sheet is filled with farcical numbers. For the ZL1, that's a 6.2-liter V8 with 580 horsepower, 556 pound-feet of torque, a 4,051-pound curb weight, 0-to-60 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds, a quarter-mile time of 12.2 seconds and a base price of just $57,800. Opposing that, the Hellcat wrings out its 6.2-liter V8 for 707 hp, 650 lb-ft of torque, weighs 4,449 pounds, does the quarter in 11.7 seconds and has a base price of just $60,990. Except in the case of the Hellcat, when Motor Trend put it on the dyno the machine spit out a reading of 672 hp and 606 lb-ft at the wheels. If there's a 10-percent driveline loss through those beefed-up internals and heavy-duty eight-speed transmission, that means the Hellcat is actually rated at about 750 horsepower and 700 lb-ft. But once they get put on a closed-off strip of coast road in Northern California, there are only a few strands of hair between their respective performances. That's not the case for they sensations provide; host Jonny Lieberman calls one of them, "One of the most incredible cars ever made," and says, "It changes everything." Watch the video above to see who got the verdict and how. Related Video:

GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles
Tue, 06 Aug 2013General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.
