 Up for sale is this beautiful 1957 Chevrolet short bed truck.It is located in El Paso,Texas. It has a strong running 350 engine with a 4 barrel carburetor and new dual exhaust with scavenger pipes.The transmission is a 350 automatic. This truck runs and drives good.The headlights,turn signals,brake lights,wiper,horn and heater work. This is a very good example of a driver quality truck. Please note, THIS IS NOT A SHOW TRUCK . If you are looking for a flawless truck,then this is NOT the truck for you. You can find a fully restored one like this for 3 times the price I am asking for mine. This is a great opportunity to buy an iconic classic on a budget ! This truck has a new starter,and it starts right up every time. I love the attention I get when I go out in it. As far as the performance part of the truck, I have to say that it is pretty good. The attention to detail is what this truck needs. For example, I can see that this truck will need a better paint job,including new lower rocker panels and cab corners. I think that is the worst part of the truck. I can see that under the truck is in pretty decent shape. The frame is in great shape as well. All the glass on the truck is good,but the back glass is pitted. The interior of the truck could use a make-over. It does not have the original seat.I was going to replace it,but never got the chance. The rims on this truck are custom turbine rims from the 70's. They are very hard to find. The front are 15x6 and the rear are 15x8. I think they look great on this truck. The tires are in pretty good shape as well.The front chrome bumper and grill are original and still shine really nice for their age! The wood in the bed is complete,but it shows its age. The tailgate looks a bit worn as well. It's a truck!!! These trucks were used for work back in the day. It is only logical to see wear on the truck.All in All, this truck is pretty decent for its age. All I have for this truck is what you see in the pics.It has a clean Texas title. Nothing more. You are more than welcome to have Ebay inspect the truck.A $500 deposit is due up front. No exceptions. Please note that I am selling this truck locally and I have the right to cancel this ad at any time.This truck is sold in as is condition with no warranty or refund. If you have any questions or concerns, Please call me at 915-630-2034 . Ask for Jacob. Thank you for looking and GOOD LUCK !!!!!

GM Recalls 218,000 Chevy Aveo Models Over Fire-Prone Lighting

Wed, May 21 2014

The recall train keeps on rolling for General Motors. Hot on the heels of its recent 2.4 million-vehicle recall of various models, it's now calling in 218,000 Chevrolet Aveo units from the 2004-2008 model years because they could catch fire. The problem concerns the daytime running light module in the instrument panel. It could overheat, melt and cause a fire. According to GM spokesperson Alan Adler, "We are aware of some fires," and the company "is still investigating." Adler wouldn't comment about how many fires were reported or when the automaker was first aware of this issue because of the ongoing analysis. However, he said the issue has not caused any injuries or fatalities. GM also doesn't have a fix for the problem with the DRL module yet. The company says in its recall statement to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that the remedy "is still under development." Adler wasn't sure when it would be ready, but he said Aveo owners would receive notification in the mail "relatively soon." They will receive a second letter later to schedule the repair. In a separate letter about the Aveo's problem to NHTSA (viewable here as a PDF), GM said its Executive Field Action Decision Committee decided to conduct the recall on May 16. Scroll down for the recall report. RECALL Subject : Daytime Running Light Module Overheating Report Receipt Date: MAY 19, 2014 NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V261000 Component(s): Potential Number of Units Affected: 218,000 Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors is recalling certain model year 2004-2008 Chevrolet Aveo vehicles equipped with daytime running lights (DRL). In the affected vehicles, there may be heat generated within the DRL module located in the center console in the instrument panel, which could melt the DRL module. CONSEQUENCE: If the DRL module melts due to the heat generation, it could cause a vehicle fire. REMEDY: The remedy for this recall campaign is still under development. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact General Motors customer service at 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet). General Motors recall number for this campaign is 14236. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

GM, UAW poaching Nissan workers in Tennessee

Tue, Sep 8 2015

General Motors and the United Auto Workers are going on a recruitment drive at the Spring Hill factory in Tennessee, and they're hoping to poach some skilled workers from Nissan's nearby plant in Smyrna, TN. The General and the union even bought a billboard advertising for industrial electricians near the Japanese automaker's facility, according to the Daily News Journal. The reason for the billboard was simple. "GM was short of electricians," said Tim Stannard, the president of the UAW local at Spring Hill, to the Daily News Journal. The factory currently builds the Chevrolet Equinox but has a contract to assemble the next generation of Ecotec engines and the Cadillac XT5, which replaces the SRX. Thanks to the $185-million deal, employment there is expected to double by May 2016, according to Stannard, with roughly 1,800 additional union jobs. Beyond just several billboards, GM has job postings online for the Spring Hill plant looking for workers with specific skills. There has already been some interest in the positions among Nissan employees, Stannard indicated. According to a recent study by the Center for Automotive Research, the average GM worker currently makes $58 an hour, including benefits. Comparatively, Nissan pays an average of $42 an hour with benefits. The General's number could change in the coming weeks because its contract with the UAW is about to expire, and higher wages are among the major negotiating points.
